Switched Linear MPC to Minimize the Power Consumption of a Portable Oxygen Concentrator

Portable Oxygen Concentrators (POCs) are devices that produce oxygen-enriched air, by selectively filtering nitrogen out of ambient air with a cyclic process called Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA). The current control method is to adjust the timings of the process by means of lookup tables, such that the POC operates as efficient as possible....
