The algorithm is split into a preparation and a feedback phase, where the latter one performs as little computations as possible solving a single prepared quadratic program. To further improve the accuracy of this method, the Advanced-Step RTI (AS-RTI) performs additional Multi-Level Iterations (MLI) in the preparation phase, such as inexact or zero-order SQP iterations on a problem with a predicted state estimate. This paper extends and streamlines the existing local convergence analysis of AS-RTI, such as analyzing MLI of level A and B for the first time, and significantly simplifying the proofs for levels C and D. Moreover, this paper provides an efficient open-source implementation in acados, making it widely accessible to practitioners.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.07101v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2403.07101v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"advanced-step-real-time-iterations-with-four","repo_url":"https://github.com/freyjo/as-rti-acados","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
