Experimental Evaluation of Derivative Free Model Reference Adaptive Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
Modern flight control systems are expected to perform beyond their conventional flight envelopes and exhibit robustness and adaptability to uncertain environments and failures. Adaptive control has been shown to improve the performance of a flight control system in the presence of uncertainties and failures. Recently, a new adaptive design named DF-MRAC has been developed which offers the possibility of improved adaptation and smoother error transient characteristics compared to conventional MRAC designs. In this paper flight test results using a small twin engine aircraft with DF-MRAC design is evaluated and compared with conventional MRAC design in the presence of failures.

Analysis of Speed Control in DC Motor Drive Based on Model Reference Adaptive Control
This paper presents fuzzy and conventional performance of model reference adaptive control(MRAC) to control a DC drive. The aims of this work are achieving better match of motor speed with reference speed, decrease of noises under load changes and disturbances, and increase of system stability. The operation of nonadaptive control and the model reference of fuzzy and conventional adaptive contr...
متن کاملThe Development of Maximum Likelihood Estimation Approaches for Adaptive Estimation of Free Speed and Critical Density in Vehicle Freeways
The performance of many traffic control strategies depends on how much the traffic flow models have been accurately calibrated. One of the most applicable traffic flow model in traffic control and management is LWR or METANET model. Practically, key parameters in LWR model, including free flow speed and critical density, are parameterized using flow and speed measurements gathered by inductive ...
متن کاملDerivative-Free Output Feedback Adaptive Control of an Aeroelastic Generic Transport Model
This paper illustrates an application of derivative-free, output feedback adaptive control on an aeroelastic model of longitudinal dynamics for a generic transport model. The controller uses a state observer as a reference model, and has a derivative-free delayed weight update law. Since it does not assume the existence of constant ideal weights, it is particulary well suited for adaptation to ...
متن کاملDerivative-Free Model Reference Adaptive Control
Aderivative-free, delayedweight update law is developed formodel reference adaptive control of continuous-time uncertain systems, without assuming the existence of constant ideal weights. Using a Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional it is proven that the error dynamics are uniformly ultimately bounded, without the need for modification terms in the adaptive law. Estimates for the ultimate bound and t...
متن کاملDesign of a Model Reference Adaptive Controller Using Modified MIT Rule for a Second Order System
Sometimes conventional feedback controllers may not perform well online because of the variation in process dynamics due to nonlinear actuators, changes in environmental conditions and variation in the character of the disturbances. To overcome the above problem, this paper deals with the designing of a controller for a second order system with Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC) scheme usi...
