PID‐Augmented Adaptive Control of a Gyro Mirror Los System

In this paper, a composite control scheme using a synergy of PID and adaptive control is proposed. The adaptive control component provides an adaptive feedforward control signal, while the PID component provides feedback control for robustness against modeling errors in the feedforward control design. The PID control can be automatically tuned using a relay. The control scheme developed is relevant to a large class of nonlinear servo‐mechanical systems, although in this paper, it is specifically implemented and demonstrated on a gyro mirror line‐of‐sight (LOS) system.     

Adaptive inverse control of linear and nonlinear systems using dynamic neural networks

In this paper, we see adaptive control as a three-part adaptive-filtering problem. First, the dynamical system we wish to control is modeled using adaptive system-identification techniques. Second, the dynamic response of the system is controlled using an adaptive feedforward controller. No direct feedback is used, except that the system output is monitored and used by an adaptive algorithm to adjust the parameters of the controller. Third, disturbance canceling is performed using an additional adaptive filter. The canceler does not affect system dynamics, but feeds back plant disturbance in a way that minimizes output disturbance power. The techniques work to control minimum-phase or nonminimum-phase, linear or nonlinear, single-input-single-output (SISO) or multiple-input-multiple-ouput (MIMO), stable or stabilized systems. Constraints may additionally be placed on control effort for a practical implementation. Simulation examples are presented to demonstrate that the proposed methods work very well.

Model-Reference Fuzzy Adaptive Control as a Framework for Nonlinear System Control

The paper presents a general methodology of adaptive control based on fuzzy model to deal with unknown plants. The problem of parameter estimation is solved using a direct approach, i.e. the controller parameters are adapted without explicitly estimating plant parameters. Thus, very simple adaptive and control laws are obtained using Lyapunov stability criterion. The generality of the approach is substantiated by Stone-Weierstrass theorem, which indicates that any continuous function can be approximated by fuzzy basis function expansion. In the sense of adaptive control, this implies the adaptive law with fuzzified adaptive control parameters. The proposed control algorithm may be viewed as an extension of classical adaptive control for linear plants, but compared to the latter it provides higher adaptation ability and consequently better performance if the plant is nonlinear. The global stability of the control system is assured and the tracking error converges to the residual set that depends on fuzzification properties. The main advantage of the approach is simplicity that suits control engineers since wide range of industrial processes can be controlled by the proposed method. In the paper, the control of heat exchanger is performed.     

A discrete-time parameter estimation based adaptive actuator failure compensation control scheme

This article studies discrete-time adaptive failure compensation control of systems with uncertain actuator failures, using an indirect adaptive control method. A discrete-time model of a continuous-time linear system with actuator failures is derived and its key features are clarified. A new discrete-time adaptive actuator failure compensation control scheme is developed, which consists of a total parametrisation of the system with parameter and failure uncertainties, a stable adaptive parameter estimation algorithm, and an on-line design procedure for feedback control. This work provides a new design of direct adaptive compensation of uncertain actuator failures, using an indirect adaptive control method. Such an adaptive design ensures desired closed-loop system stability and tracking properties despite uncertain actuator failures. Simulation results are presented to show the desired adaptive actuator failure compensation performance.     

Robust adaptive LQ control schemes

The certainty equivalence principle is used to combine a robust adaptive law with a control structure derived from the linear quadratic (LQ) control problem. The resulting adaptive control scheme is applicable to minimum and nonminimum phase continuous-time plants and is robust with respect to unmodeled dynamics and bounded disturbances. The computational complexity of the continuous-time adaptive LQ control scheme is improved by using a hybrid adaptive law which requires the solution of an algebraic Riccati equation at each interval of time rather than at each time t     

An approach to stable indirect adaptive control

Stable indirect adaptive control of minimum and nonminimum phase plants is established for cases where a priori bounds on the unknown plant parameters are known and where for each set of parameter values within these bounds the plant has no unstable pole-zero cancellation. By incorporating this partial parameter knowledge in the adaptive law and using a nonminimal representation of the plant, it is shown that the adaptive closed loop control system can be written as an exponentially stable system driven by the identification error. The stability of the adaptive control system is then shown using techniques similar to those known from the model reference adaptive control approach.     

An Adaptive Controller Dominant-Type Hybrid Adaptive and Learning Controller for Trajectory Tracking of Robot Manipulators

This paper proposes a new hybrid adaptive and learning control method based on combining model-based adaptive control, repetitive learning control (RLC) and proportional–derivative control to consider the periodic trajectory tracking problem of robot manipulators. The aim of this study is to obtain a high-accuracy trajectory tracking controller by developing a simpler adaptive dominant-type hybrid controller by using only one vector for estimation of the unknown dynamical parameters in the control law. The RLC input is adopted using the original learning control law, adding a forgetting factor to achieve the convergence of the learning control input to zero. We will improve and prove that the adaptive dominant-type controller could be applied for tracking a periodic desired trajectory in which adaptive control input increases and becomes dominant of the control input, whereas the other control inputs decrease close to zero. The domination of the adaptive control input gives the advantage that the proposed controller could adjust the feed-forward control input immediately and it does not spend much time relearning the learning control input when the periodic desired trajectory is switched over from the first trajectory to another trajectory. We utilize the Lyapunovlike method to prove the stability of the proposed controller and computer simulation results to validate the effectiveness of the proposed controller in achieving the accurate tracking to the periodic desired trajectory.     

Direct fuzzy model‐reference adaptive control

Intelligent systems may be viewed as a framework for solving the problems of nonlinear system control. The intelligence of the system in the nonlinear or changing environment is used to recognize in which environment the system currently resides and to service it appropriately. This paper presents a general methodology of adaptive control based on multiple models in fuzzy form to deal with plants with unknown parameters which depend on known plant variables. We introduce a novel model‐reference fuzzy adaptive control system which is based on the fuzzy basis function expansion. The generality of the proposed algorithm is substantiated by the Stone‐Weierstrass theorem which indicates that any continuous function can be approximated by fuzzy basis function expansion. In the sense of adaptive control this implies the adaptive law with fuzzified adaptive parameters which are obtained using Lyapunov stability criterion. The combination of adaptive control theory based on models obtained by fuzzy basis function expansion results in fuzzy direct model‐reference adaptive control which provides higher adaptation ability than basic adaptive‐control systems. The proposed control algorithm is the extension of direct model‐reference fuzzy adaptive‐control to nonlinear plants. The direct fuzzy adaptive controller directly adjusts the parameter of the fuzzy controller to achieve approximate asymptotic tracking of the model‐reference input. The main advantage of the proposed approach is simplicity together with high performance, and it has been shown that the closed‐loop system using the direct fuzzy adaptive controller is globally stable and the tracking error converges to the residual set which depends on fuzzification properties. The proposed approach can be implemented on a wide range of industrial processes. In the paper the foundation of the proposed algorithm are given and some simulation examples are shown and discussed. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Nonlinear adaptive control using networks of piecewise linearapproximators

Presents a stable nonparametric adaptive control approach using a piecewise local linear approximator. The continuous piecewise linear approximator is developed and its universal approximation capability is proved. The controller architecture is based on adaptive feedback linearization plus sliding mode control. A time varying activation region is introduced for efficient self-organization of the approximator during operation. We modify the adaptive control approach for piecewise linear approximation and self-organizing structures. In addition, we provide analyses of asymptotic stability of the tracking error and parameter convergence for the proposed adaptive control scheme with the online self-organizing structure. The method with a deadzone is also discussed to prevent a high-frequency input which might excite the unmodeled dynamics in practical applications. The application of the piecewise linear adaptive control method is demonstrated by a computational simulation.     

L1 adaptive control with sliding-mode based adaptive law

This paper presents an adaptive control scheme with an integration of sliding mode control into the $\mathcal{L}_1$ adaptive control architecture, which provides good tracking performance as well as robustness against matched uncertainties. Sliding mode control is used as an adaptive law in the $\mathcal{L}_1$ adaptive control architecture, which is considered as a virtual control of error dynamics between estimated states and real states. Low-pass filtering mechanism in the control law design prevents a discontinuous signal in the adaptive law from appearing in actual control signal while maintaining control accuracy. By using sliding mode control as a virtual control of error dynamics and introducing the low-pass filtered control signal, the chattering effect is eliminated. The performance bounds between the close-loop adaptive system and the closed-loop reference system are characterized in this paper. Numerical simulation is provided to demonstrate the performance of the presented adaptive control scheme.

Fuzzy-enhanced Adaptive Control for Flexible Drive System with Friction Using Genetic Algorithms

When a mechatronic system is in slow speed motion, serious effect of nonlinear friction plays a key role in its control design. In this paper, a stable adaptive control for drive systems including transmission flexibility and friction, based on the Lyapunov stability theory, is first proposed. For ease of design, the friction is fictitiously assumed as an unknown disturbance in the derivation of the adaptive control law. Genetic algorithms are then suggested for learning the structure and parameters of the fuzzy-enhancing strategy for the adaptive control to improve system's transient performance and robustness with respect to uncertainty. The integrated fuzzy-enhanced adaptive control is well tested via computer simulations using the new complete dynamic friction model recently suggested by Canudas de Wit et al. for modeling the real friction phenomena. Much lower critical velocity of a flexible drive system that determines system's low-speed performance bound can be obtained using the proposed hybrid control strategy.

The control performance of the closed-loop system is guaranteed by appropriately choosing the design parameters. The proposed adaptive NN control is free of control singularity problem. An adaptive control based switching strategy is used to overcome the uncontrollability problem associated with x0 (t0) = 0. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controllers.

Model reference adaptive control of a nonlinear oscillator

A model reference adaptive system (MRAS) is applied to a nonlinear oscillator to achieve adaptive control. Since the model and plant of the system are not linearized to achieve the adaptive laws, the true behavior of the strongly nonlinear system is not lost. By considering important properties of the reference model describing a well-behaved nonlinear oscillator, it is possible to derive the error-equation, which is linear in the state variables. Liapunov synthesis is used to achieve adaptive control, and stability is thus guaranteed. The technique is simulated using an adaptive autopilot for a ship.     

Robust adaptive neuro-fuzzy control of uncertain nonholonomic systems

In this paper, we present an adaptive neuro-fuzzy controller design for a class of uncertain nonholonomic systems in the perturbed chained form with unknown virtual control coefficients and strong drift nonlinearities. The robust adaptive neuro-fuzzy control laws are developed using state scaling and backstepping. Semiglobal uniform ultimate bound-edness of all the signals in the closed-loop are guaranteed, and the system states are proven to converge to a small neigh-borhood of zero. The control performance of the closed-loop system is guaranteed by appropriately choosing the design parameters. By using fuzzy logic approximation, the proposed control is free of control singularity problem. An adaptive control-based switching strategy is proposed to overcome the uncontrollability problem associated with x 0 (t 0 ) = 0.     

Adaptive neural sliding mode compensator for a class of nonlinear systems with unmodeled uncertainties

This paper addresses the problem of adaptive neural sliding mode control for a class of multi-input multi-output nonlinear system. The control strategy is an inverse nonlinear controller combined with an adaptive neural network with sliding mode control using an on-line learning algorithm. The adaptive neural network with sliding mode control acts as a compensator for a conventional inverse controller in order to improve the control performance when the system is affected by variations in its entire structure (kinematics and dynamics). The controllers are obtained by using Lyapunov's stability theory. Experimental results of a case study show that the proposed method is effective in controlling dynamic systems with unexpected large uncertainties.
