Abstract: | Two time-scale receding horizon optimal control (TTRHOC) of greenhouse cultivation is investigated. Recent developments enable closure of the outer-loop of this control system because they facilitate on-line recomputation of the optimal control of the slow dynamics on a daily basis. This paper quantifies the benefits obtained from having an outer closed-loop that counteracts errors and changes concerning predictions of crop growth, long-term weather, revenues obtained from selling crops and costs to control greenhouse climate. As a special, important case LED lighting is considered which increases both crop growth and profit. Having an outer closed-loop is especially beneficial in this case. |
