Frequency adaptive control. I (Q1920405)

The following class of time-invariant, linear, single-input single-output systems is considered \[ {\textstyle {\bigl({d\over dt}\bigr)y(t)= k\bigl({d\over dt}\bigr)u(t)+ m\bigl({d\over dt}\bigr)f(t)}}, \] where \(d(\cdot)\), \(k(\cdot)\), and \(m(\cdot)\) are polynomials with real coefficients and \({d\over dt}\) denotes the usual differential operator \(y\), \(u\), and \(f\) denote the output, input, and disturbance of the system, respectively. The coefficients of the polynomials are unknown, it is only assumed that the following are known: an upper bound on the real parts of the roots of \(d(\cdot)\), the degree of \(d(\cdot)\), an upper bound on the modulus of the smallest coefficient of \(m(\cdot)\), a lower bound on the modulus of the smallest root of \(m(\cdot)\), an upper bound on the modulus of the disturbance \(f(t)\), and \(f\) is a finite linear combination of \(\sin(\omega_it)\) and \(\cos(\omega_jt)\). The control objective is to find, for prespecified \(t^*\) and \(y^*\), an adaptive feedback law such that \(|y(t)|\leq y^*\) for all \(t\geq t^*\). This problem is solved by successive action of filtrations and controls.
