A New Robustness Theorem for the Adaptive Control of Nonlinear Systems Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • Many systems must operate in the presence of bounded perturbations. In this paper we present a new robustness result for nonlinear systems. We use this result to show that for bounded perturbations, a simple adaptive controller with leakage can produce output regulation to a neighborhood with radius dependent upon the size of the perturbation. This regulation occurs in the presence of persistent disturbances and the convergence is exponential.
