Robust Adaptive Control: Deadzone-Adapted Disturbance Suppression
About this ebook
This book develops the Deadzone-Adapted Disturbance Suppression (DADS) control, a novel adaptive control method, and constructs a novel robust identifier that can work in parallel with every direct adaptive controller (not only DADS); it presents a wing rock instability application of DADS and provides ideas for the extension of DADS to cases not studied in the book.
Robust Adaptive Control: Deadzone-Adapted Disturbance Suppression will be of interest to mathematicians working on feedback control and stability theory and to control engineers. Physicists tackling control problems and biologists with an interest in controlling population dynamics will also find it of interest.
