Undefined function 'prob2struct' for input arguments of type 'sym'

5 views (last 30 days)
I am trying to create an MPC controller. The controller predicts 3 state vectors (x,y and theta) with two control inputs (v and omega) for 3 horizons. I have used symbolic variables to calculate the final state matrix in form of the control variables. My objective function consists of 3X3 matrix in terms of v and omega. I am trying to solve the optimization problem by converting the matrix into scalar form so that i can use 'optimalproblem' function. But I am not able to convert the matrix to scalar form and getting this error:
""Undefined function 'prob2struct' for input arguments of type 'sym'

Following is my code:

You cannot use symbolic variables directly with Optimization Toolbox™ functions. Either convert your symbolic expressions using matlabFunction as in this example, or, what will probably work better for you, don't use any symbolic variables at all, and instead use optimvar variables. See Problem-Based Optimization Setup.
