This work presents a data driven control strategy able to track a set point without steady state error. The control sequence is computed as an affine combination of past control signals, which belong to a set of past closed loop trajectories stored in a process historian database. This affine combination is computed so that the variance of the tracking error is minimized. It is shown that offset free control (zero mean tracking error) is achieved under the assumption that the underlying dynamics are linear and the closed loop trajectories of the database are in turn offset free. That is, the proposed strategy inherits the offset free tracking capability of the stored past closed loop trajectories. No prior or subsequent knowledge about the process dynamics is required. The procedure to build the database is to store only the best trajectories that meet a design criteria, chosen from a series of iteratively tuned controllers. In this way the proposed controller will learn how to obtain a well tuned control in spite of the different operating conditions.
