Ad ap tive Contro l provid es tec hniques for aut omatic adjustment in real t ime of cont roller parameter s in order to achieve or to maintain a desired level for the performance of cont rol systems when the dyn amic param et ers of t he process are unknown and/or var y in time. These techniques have as a main feature t he abilit y to ext ract significant information from real dat a in ord er to tune the cont roller and they feature a me chanism for adjust ing parameter s (of a plant model or of a cont roller). While the history of Adaptive Control is lon g, significant progr ess in under standing and applying Adaptive Con trol began in the early sevent ies. The growing availability of digital com puters have also contributed to the devel opment of the field . The earlier applicat ions in the sevent ies and beginning of the eight ies, provided important feedback for the development of the field . Theoretical developments allowed a number of basic problems to be solved . The aim of this book is to provide a coherent and comprehensive treatment of the field . The presentation takes the read er from the basic problem formu lation to the analytical solutions who se prac tical significance is illustrated by applications.
