Adaptive stabilization of sampled systems (Q1090652)

A simple discrete adaptive control scheme is proposed for fast sampling of minimum phase continuous-time systems. An indirect adaptive scheme for the control of sampled systems is proposed. The principal difficulty associated with the indirect approach arises from the fact that the estimated system may have unstable pole-zero cancellations. A great deal of prior information is available about pole-zero locations of the sampled systems with fast sampling and such information can be used in the design of the indirect adaptive controller.
