Fundamental problems in adaptive control

From MaRDI portal





This is a survey paper aimed at highlighting fundamental problems in adaptive control. The authors provide suggestions and indications of how the problems might be resolved. Three fundamental problems are discussed. These are: (1) the need to work in changing experimental conditions with models of plants which are virtually never exact; (2) the inability to know, for an unknown plant, whether the desired control objective is practical or impractical; and (3) the possibility of transient instability, or extremely large signals occurring before convergence. The authors advance a technique to address these problems based on ``cautious controller adjustment using the Vinnicombe metric. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0937.93004].
