The Robustness Improvement of Discrete-Time Direct Adaptive Controllers |
| Abstract |
This paper presents a robust discrete-time direct adaptive pole-placement with new discrete parameter adaptation algorithm (PAA), the standard RLS is suitably modified by adding a term which is exponentially proportional to the filtered tracking error and using a signal normalization. It is shown that it makes the overall adaptive system more robust in the presence of disturbances or unmodeled dynamics. In order to discuss the robustness improvement by using the input-output stability theory, the overall adaptive control system is reformulated and the sector theory is applied. In addition, computer simulation results are presented to complement the theoretical development. |
