contents This article develops a control method for linear time-invariant systems subject to time-varying and a priori unknown cost functions, that satisfies state and input constraints, and is robust to exogenous disturbances. To this end, we combine the online convex optimization framework with a reference governor and a constraint tightening approach. The proposed framework guarantees recursive feasibility and robust constraint satisfaction. Its closed-loop performance is studied in terms of its dynamic regret, which is bounded linearly by the variation of the cost functions and the magnitude of the disturbances. The proposed method is illustrated by a numerical case study of a tracking control problem.
