Solution of the optimal non-linear GPC method is mostly obtained in an iterative way with 3 following steps: initialisation, transformation from non-linear system given in general form into time-varying state-dependent form, and checking whether the convergence condition is satisfied. The main aim of this paper is to analyse how the transformation method from nonlinear model into time varying state-space dependent form have effect on the convergence of the algorithm. We try to answer following questions: If chosen transformation method is suitable ? If the convergence to the optimal solution is guaranteed ? If the number of iterations can be cut down ?
