| contents | We propose a data-driven Model Predictive Control (MPC) framework that employs a transformer encoder to generate multi-step predictions. To handle the nonconvex attention mechanism, we derive difference of convex (DC) representations of the transformer encoder components and embed them in a successive convex programming (SCP) iteration. Recursive feasibility and convergence of the SCP iterates are guaranteed, and each iterate yields a solution estimate satisfying the problem constraints. Under mild assumptions, the SCP iteration converges to a locally optimal solution of the MPC problem. The approach is illustrated on a benchmark nonlinear control problem. |
