Abstract
Self- tuning regulators and controllers have proven to be a useful industrial control device. The self- tuning theory upon which these devices are based comprises the two aspects: controller design and system identification. In this first paper the emphasis is on the design, or more correctly, the synthesis, of the controller. In particular, classes of optimal controllers each dependent on a different cost function are discussed. The two most popular controllers- the minimum variance and the generalised minimum variance control laws - are derived in this first part.

Self-Tuning Adaptive Control for Field-Oriented Controlled Induction Motors - a Simulation Study

TL;DR: In this paper, a self-tuning controller is developed to enable the induction motor to follow accurately preselected, time varying speed-and position-tracks, in order to reduce the impact of the nonlinearities of the inductive motor on the performance of the drive system.

Pole assignment self-tuning regulator

TL;DR: The pole-assignment self tuner as discussed by the authors is a self-tuning algorithm that uses a pole assignment method which is non-optimal, but is robust to unknown, possibly varying, transport delays.
