PhD and Research

I'm currently studying towards the Ph.D. in Information Engineering at the Department of Information Engineering of the University of Padova, Italy.

Prof. Sandro Zampieri is supervising my studies and my research in the Automatic Control Group.

Here is a short overview of the research topics I'm interested in, with some references to my publications.

Main research topics

Model Predictive Control (MPC)

Stability of Generalized Predictive Control (GPC) and theory of model predictive control with finite / infinite horizon.

See Publications [1]

Design and implementation of a Model Predictive Controller for the speed and current control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM).

See Publications [4], [5]

Adaptive control of distributed parameter systems

Adaptive control through backstepping of complex valued partial differential equations (PDE) with output feedback and boundary actuation.

See Publications [2], [3]

Consensus and coordinated control and estimation

Distributed consensus algorithms for least-square estimation of channel parameters in Wireless Sensor Networks, and for sensor calibration.

See Publications [6], [7]

Networked Control Systems (NCS) - see the European project FeedNetBack for some details.
