Abstract: | A key issue, which is addressed in the paper, is the development of an efficient adaptive control algorithm for disturbed, non‐linear objects. A generalized non‐linear model of the controlled plant is proposed. Model of disturbances is assumed to be a bilinear time‐series model. Minimum‐variance control of non‐linear systems with bilinear model of disturbances is considered. For a generalized system model simple, weighed and generalized adaptive control algorithms are proposed. A comparison of different non‐linear adaptive control algorithms is performed.
