Adaptive Control Systems

Describing issues in adaptive control with special regard to its realization with digital process computers, microcomputers and personal computers, this book also includes historically important schemes for its implementation with analogue equipment. The book provides a balanced presentation from the fundamental principles and theoretical analysis, through the design process, simulation studies, comparisons, software and hardware realization, to real-world applications. It includes an introduction and in-depth treatment of areas such as feedforward adaptive control and model reference adaptive control.
