In this paper a Dual-Mode Model Predictive / Linear Control method is presented, which extends the concept of dual-mode Model Predictive Control to trajectory tracking control of nonlinear dynamic systems described by discrete-time state-space models. The dual-mode controller comprises of a time-varying linear control law, implemented when the states lie within a sufficiently small neighborhood of the reference trajectory, and a model predictive control strategy driving the system towards that neighborhood. The boundary of this neighborhood is characterized so as to ensure stability of the closed-loop system and terminate the optimization procedure in a finite number of iterations, without jeopardizing the stability of the closed-loop system. The developed controller is applied to the central Air Handling Unit of a two-zone Variable Air Volume (VAV) Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning system
