Download or read book Adaptive Systems in Control and Signal Processing 1983 written by I. D. Landau and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adaptive Systems in Control and Signal Processing 1983 is a compendium of papers presented at the International Federation of Automatic Control in San Francisco on June 20-22, 1983. One paper addresses the results through comparative alternative algorithms in adaptive control of linear time invariant and time varying systems. Another paper presents a method in computer simulation of a wide range of stable plants to achieve an alternative approach in designing an adaptive control system. The book also compares the stability and the sensitivity approach involving the design of model-reference adaptive systems. The authors involved explain that the sensitivity concept determines the "dynamic speed of adaptation," while the stability concept focuses on finding a linear compensator for any deviant signal. One paper proposes an indirect adaptive control algorithm for MIMO square full rank minimum phase systems, while another paper discusses the application of the discrete time multivariable adaptive control system, to non-minimum phase plants with an unknown dead time. This book can prove valuable to engineers and researchers of electrical, computer, and mechanical engineering. It can also be helpful for technicians and students dealing with automatic control and telecontrol.

Download or read book Adaptive Systems in Control and Signal Processing 1989 written by T.S. Durrani and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Symposium covered three major areas: adaptive control, identification and signal processing. In all three, new developments were discussed covering both theoretical and applications research. Within the subject area of adaptive control the discussion centred around the challenges of robust control design to unmodelled dynamics, robust parameter estimation and enhanced performance from the estimator, while the papers on identification took the theme of it being a bridge between adaptive control and signal processing. The final area looked at two aspects of signal processing: recursive estimation and adaptive filters.
