This associated optimization problem allows to consider both state and input constraints simultaneously. Based on the first order Karush–Kuhn–Tucker optimality condition, the primal–dual gradient method is then used to build a passive feedback controller, derived from the MPC-induced optimization problem. The resulting passive controller is coupled with the original Port-Hamiltonian system through a power-preserving interconnection, in order to guarantee both the closed-loop stability and constraints satisfaction, but not the optimality anymore. Comments on parameters tuning for the proposed control design, together with validations of the approach through simulations first on a linear LC circuit, then on a nonlinear Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor and comparisons with a classical MPC design, are provided to discuss the effectiveness of the approach.A combined Control by Interconnection—Model Predictive Control design for constrained Port-Hamiltonian systemstext::journal::journal article::research article
