Abstract
In this thesis various aspects of modeling and control in adaptive systems are presented from a frequency domain viewpoint.The thesis consists of three parts, where the first part contains a general introduction and background information concerning the problems that will be treated. In the second part some recursive identification algorithms are studied with respect to their ability to track time-varying systems and their disturbance sensitivity. Simple and illustrative frequency domain expressions that describe these properties are derived using asymptotic methods. The algorithms that are treated are the constant gain gradient (LMS) algorithm, the recursive least squares algorithm with constant forgetting factor and the Kalman filter respectively. The behavior of these methods when applied to FIR and ARX systems are studied. In the third part of the thesis adaptive control based on low order models is studied. The adaptive control algorithm that is investigated is the recursive least squares algorithm combined with pole placement regulator design. Starting from frequency domain expressions, that describe how a low order model obtained by system identification approximates a higher order system, the consequences for adaptive control are investigated. It is shown how a proper use of filtering in the identification part of the adaptive regulator can improve the robustness properties of the adaptive regulator with respect to unmodelled dynamics.

Adaptation and tracking in system identification—a survey

TL;DR: This article gives a survey of basic techniques to derive and analyse algorithms for tracking time-varying systems, with special attention to the study of how different assumptions about the true system's variations affect the algorithm.

Minimax approaches to robust model predictive control

TL;DR: It is shown how tools from modern nonlinear control theory can be used to synthesize finite horizon MPC controllers with guaranteed stability, and more importantly, how some of the tech- nical assumptions in the literature can be dispensed with by using a slightly more complex controller.

Backstepping and control allocation with applications to flight control

TL;DR: In this paper, an adaptive backstepping and nonlinear observer design method is proposed for nonlinear control problems in flight control and the results are presented in a general framework and can also be applied to other areas.

Iterative Learning Control : Analysis, Design, and Experiments

TL;DR: The application, industrial robot control, that has been used as a testbed throughout the thesis is described and includes a general discussion on robot modeling and control as well as a specific discussion on the implementation of the functions needed in the commercial robot control software in order to make it possible to apply iterative learning control.

Collision Avoidance Theory : with Application to Automotive Collision Mitigation

Jonas Jansson
TL;DR: The task of a collision avoidance system is to track objects of potential collision risk to reduce the risk of collisions between objects and the system itself.
