With the growing use of feedback controls, "hard" nonlinearities have become ubiquitous in engineering practice despite their rare treatment in academic texts. This book introduces a unified adaptive inverse approach for the control of systems with unknown nonlinearities and settles long-standing engineering problems posed by imperfections of actuators and sensors.
Focusing on dead-zone, backlash, and hysteresis, the authors show how real-time computations can counteract the effects of these nonlinearities. In many applications their approach avoids the need for costly and specialized hardware.
This easy-to-use, self-contained presentation of the entirely new adaptive inverse design is geared towards practicing engineers, researchers, and graduate students.
Adaptive Control of Systems with Actuator and Sensor Nonlinearities features:
* Systematic treatment for actuator and sensor nonlinearities.
* Examples of dead-zone, backlash, and hysteresis models and their inverses.
* Broad coverage that ranges from satellite antennas and piezo-positioners to industrial automation and consumer electronics.
* Step-by-step instructions for adaptive inverse design and implementation.
* Unified continuous- and discrete-time presentation.
* A concise review of model reference adaptive control theory.
* Extensive illustrations of system performance improvement.
* Over ninety figures and design examples.
An in-depth examination of intelligent approaches to increasing the accuracy of a variety of system components. Utilizing a unified, adaptive, inverse approach, the book offers electrical, mechanical, chemical, aeronautical and computer engineers methods for controlling many of the "hard" nonlinearities of frequently-employed control systems such as dead-zone, backlash and hysteresis. Discusses such nonlinearities at both the input and output points of a linear part and within both continuous time designs and discrete time designs.
