Abstract: | We address the problem of output tracking for a class of nonlinearly parameterized systems with unstabilizable linearization. To achieve practical output tracking globally in the case when both the bound of reference signals and the bound of unknown time-varying parameters are not known a priori, we present a robust adaptive control method that is based on the idea of universal control combined with the new adaptive feedback design method developed recently for controlling uncertain systems with nonlinear parameterization. Continuous adaptive tracking controllers are explicitly constructed in this paper. The proposed adaptive tracking controllers use only the information of a prescribed reference signal but not its derivatives, nor its bound. |
