Abstract In order to construct stable adaptive control systems, several assumptions are needed, and those require some prior information of unknown plants, such as degrees and relative degrees. However, those assumptions sometimes become too restrictive, since it is difficult to obtain reasonable estimations of those indices a priori for unknown practical processes. This paper reviews the authors’ research works where some of those assumptions can be relaxed partially. The basic concepts behind those and the restrictions of the present version are summarized, and the future possibilities of the proposed methodologies are also discussed. # 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

1. Introduction Every researcher who begins to study adaptive control, is confronted with the fact that several assumptions are needed to design stable adaptive control systems for unknown processes. Some of those assumptions require prior information of unknown plants. That seems a contradiction of adaptive control, since adaptive control methodologies have been developed for the case where system characteristics cannot be specified a priori. For stable adaptive controller designs, especially for stable model reference adaptive controller designs, the following assumptions are necessary. Assumption of adaptive control: (1) (2) (3) (4)

Degrees or upper bounds of degrees of plants are known. Relative degrees of plants are known. Signs of high-frequency gains of plants are known. Plants are minimum-phase processes.

The Assumption (3) (signs of high-frequent gains) is needed for the direct approach, but is not necessary for certain indirect approach where identification models are involved explicitly. The necessity of those assumptions is because the knowledge of those indices (especially, degrees and relative degrees) is utilized to determine the orders and * Tel.: +81 3 5421 8752; fax: +81 3 3446 1695.

structures of adaptive controllers with sufficient freedom of achieving control objective, such as model-following and stabilization. However, those assumptions sometimes become too restrictive, since it is difficult to obtain reasonable estimations of those indices a priori for unknown practical processes. Hence, the relaxation of those assumptions has been of great importance from both theoretical and practical point of views. The purpose of the present paper is to summarize the authors’ previous researches where the Assumptions (1)–(3) can be relaxed to some extent (Miyasato, 1997a, 1997b, 1998a, 1998b, 1998c, 1998d, 1999a, 1999b, 2000a, 2000b; Miyasato & Hanba, 1997). Especially, design methods of stable adaptive controllers for processes with uncertain relative degrees are provided. The proposed methodologies are composed of several kinds of control structures such as model reference control, stabilizing control and servo compensation, but the basic concept behind those is common to all of them, and that concept will be clarified without going into the detailed stability analysis. Additionally, the restriction of the present version and the future possibility are also discussed. 2. Assumption – prior information The present section summarize the reasons why those assumptions are required to construct stable adaptive control systems, and review the previous works to relax the assumptions.

2.1. Assumption (1): Degree or upper bound of degree Model reference adaptive control achieves model-following control, and that control scheme is composed of state feedback (or equivalent procedure via output feedback) and feedforward compensations. The state feedback compensation allocates open-loop poles to desired closed-loop ones which cause polezero cancellation of plants. Therefore, the information on the degree or the upper bound of the degree of plants, is needed to specify the order of state feedback compensation, or the order of the equivalent dynamic compensation. One way to relax this assumption, is to introduce high-gain feedback scheme, where approximate model-following control is achieved under the several conditions. Related works are found in (Miller & Davison, 1991; Morse, 1987b). 2.2. Assumption (2): Relative degree The information on the relative degree is needed to specify the order of feedforward compensation, and also utilized to determine stable adaptation scheme which makes error processes strictly positive real. The relative degrees of strictly positive real transfer functions are restricted to 1, 0, and 1, and the order of the adaptation scheme achieving strictly positive realness, is concerned with the relative degree of the plant itself. Multi-controller assignments for several candidates of relative degrees and proper switching strategy of those adaptive controllers are useful way to solve the problem of uncertain relative degrees. Also, iterative identification and controller design procedures such as ‘‘wind-surfer algorithms’’ are practical solutions to uncertain relative degrees. Related works are found in (Anderson & Kosut, 1991; Morse, 1996; Morse, Mayne & Goodwin, 1992; Tao & Ioannou, 1989). On the contrary, stable adaptive controllers of single structures for uncertain relative degrees have been studied, where the property of the relative degree of strictly positive real transfer functions is utilized (Morse, 1985, 1987a). The present paper is considered as an extended version of those. 2.3. Assumption (3): Sign of high-frequency gain This assumption is necessary only for the case of the direct approach of adaptive control. In the indirect approach, where explicit identification models are involved, and the tuning of parameters are carried out based on identification errors, that assumption is not needed. On the contrary, the direct approach which does not utilize the knowledge on the sign of highfrequency gain, is also studied (Morse, 1985, 1987a)by introducing Nussbaum gain(Nussbaum, 1983). The present methods also deal with uncertain sign of high-frequency gains by utilizing the same strategy.

cancellation of plants. Hence, the zeros of plants should be stable in order that unstable pole-zero cancellation does not occur. The assumption of stable zeros is needed for model reference adaptive control and high-gain adaptive stabilization. However, adaptive pole-placement control, where there is no pole-zero cancellation, can be applied to plants with unstable zeros (Elliott, Cristi, & Das, 1985; Kreisselmeier, 1980, 1985). An alternative way is to utilize periodic feedback with multirate sampling. 3. Uncertain relative degree–main concept This paper considers the case where relative degrees are partially unknown. That is, relative degrees are known to be r; r þ 1, or r þ 2with known r 2 N, but they cannot be specified in more detail. The uncertainty of relative degrees r  r þ 2 lead to the uncertainty of phase shifts 0   p of plants, and it is difficult to conquer uncertain phase shift 0   p even by the framework of the recent developed robust control theory. Contrary to it, in the proposed methodology, a single adaptive controller can deal with such uncertainty, where there is no switching of multiple controllers. In order to solve that problem, the property of strictly positive real transfer functions is utilized, that is, relative degrees of strictly positive real transfer functions are þ1, 0, and 1. This can be also certified in the next simple example. Consider the following three error systems with relative degrees þ1, 0, and 1, respectively   d ˜ T vðtÞ ðCase 1Þ; þ l eðtÞ ¼ uðtÞ dt ˜ T vðtÞ ðCase 2Þ; eðtÞ ¼ uðtÞ   d ˜ T vðtÞ ðCase 3Þ; þ l uðtÞ eðtÞ ¼ dt ˆ  u; ˜ ¼ uðtÞ uðtÞ where eðtÞ is an error signal, u is an unknown parameter vector, ˆ is an estimate of u, and vðtÞ is a state vector. l is a positive uðtÞ constant (a design parameter). Each dimensions of those are determined properly. The problem here is to find out a single ˆ which is adequate for all of those three error adaptive law of uðtÞ processes. The answer for such question is given by ˙ˆ ¼ uðtÞ ˙˜ ¼ GvðtÞeðtÞ; uðtÞ

(1)

where G is a positive definite matrix. The fitness of that adaptive law can be certified from the following stability analysis. First consider Case 1. In this case, define V by ˜ T G1 uðtÞ ˜ V ¼ 12eðtÞ2 þ 12uðtÞ ð  0Þ;

In order to achieve model-following control, the feedback compensation in the adaptive controller, allocates open-loop poles to desired closed-loop poles, which causes pole-zero

ˆ ¼ uˆ 1 ðtÞ þ uˆ 2 ðtÞ; uðtÞ uˆ 1 ðtÞ ¼ GvðtÞeðtÞ;

For Case 2, V is defined by ˜ T G1 uðtÞ ˜ V ¼ 12uðtÞ ð  0Þ: Then, the time derivative of V along the error system (Case 2) is given by 2

V˙ ¼ eðtÞ ð 0Þ; and this yields e 2 L2 , and uˆ 2 L1 . For Case 3, V is defined with the filtered error signal e f ˜ T G1 uðtÞ ˜ ð  0Þ; V ¼ 12e f ðtÞ2 þ 12uðtÞ   d þ l e f ðtÞ ¼ eðtÞ: dt The time derivative of V along the trajectory of the error system (Case 3) is given by

In the main part of the proposed methodologies, the same relations between the error systems Case 10 , Case 20 , Case 30 (or equivalent forms Case 100 , Case 200 , Case 300 ) and the correspondent adaptive law (3)(or equivalently (4)), are utilized. It should be noted that the single adaptive law can deal with the three different error systems. Remark 1. The universal adaptive controllers proposed by Morse (1985, 1987a) utilize the relations between the error systems Case 10 , Case 20 (Case 100 , Case 200 ) and the correspondent adaptive law (3)(or equivalently (4)). The proposed methodologies can be considered as extended versions of those previous results.

V˙ ¼ e f ðtÞ2 ð 0Þ: Therefore, e f 2 L1 \ L2 , and uˆ 2 L1 are derived. The same procedure can be applied to the following three cases. 2  d ˜ T vðtÞ ðCase 10 Þ; þ l eðtÞ ¼ uðtÞ dt   d ˜ T vðtÞ ðCase 20 Þ; þ l eðtÞ ¼ uðtÞ dt ˜ T vðtÞ eðtÞ ¼ uðtÞ

For that system (5)(6), only the input uðtÞand the output yðtÞare assumed to be measurable, but the state xðtÞ and system parameters in A; b; c are unknown. Other assumptions about the system are almost the same as those in the usual model reference adaptive control.

In this section, the proposed methodologies of stable model reference adaptive controller designs for uncertain relative degrees (phase shift), are given (Miyasato, 1997b, 1998a). In the first version, consider the case where the sign of highfrequency gains is known a priori. That assumption will be relaxed in the next section (Miyasato, 1998c, 2000b). 4.1. Problem statement

Those cases can be rewritten into the previous ones by introducing the filtered error signal EðtÞ.   d þ l eðtÞ: (2) EðtÞ ¼ dt 0

AS-1. The controlled system is stabilizable and observable, and the zeros of it lie in C (minimum phase). AS-2. n, the upper bound on the dimension of the system, is known. AS-3. The sign of the high frequency gain b0 of cT ðsI  AÞ1 b is known. In the following context, it is assumed that b0 > 0 without loss of generality. However, the assumption about the relative degree is quite different from that in the traditional case.

AS-4. The relative degree of cT ðsI  AÞ1 b, denoted as n , is partly unknown. That is, it is known to be r; r þ 1, or r þ 2 with known r 2 N. A scalar function ðyM ðtÞÞ is introduced as a reference signal. For that ðyM ðtÞÞ, it is assumed that AS-5.

where a1 ðtÞ is a virtual input determined as follows: ˆ 1 ðtÞT v1 ðtÞ  kˆ 1 ðtÞz1 ðtÞ; a1 ðtÞ ¼ F

Then the control problem of this section can be stated as follows: given an unknown system (5)(6)with known nð 2 NÞ and rð 2 NÞ, and with uncertain relative degree n ¼ r; r þ 1, or r þ 2, and given a known reference signal yM ðtÞ, determine a suitable controller such that the tracking error eðtÞ  yðtÞ  yM ðtÞ converges to zero asymptotically. 4.2.

Category 2 is introduced to determine the adaptive law based on the same procedure as Section 3((3) and (4)). Thus, three degrees of uncertainties of relative degrees are involved in the first subsystem (z1 and Z1 ). The virtual control a1 and the adaptive laws of the first subsystem (Step 1) are determined so as to deal with three relative degrees 0, 1, 2 for control, and 1, 0, 1 for adaptive laws. From the second subsystem until the ðr þ 1Þth subsystem (Step 2 to Step r þ 1), the virtual inputs ai and the actual input u are derived so as to stabilize each subsystems of the forms

It is easily seen that each virtual input ai ðtÞ(or a1 ðtÞ) is determined so as to stabilize zi ðtÞ (or Z1 ðtÞ) (2  i  r þ 1). Additional considerations are necessary for the regulation of Z1 ðtÞ, since the uncertainty of relative degree affects the representation of Z1 ðtÞ.

Also, the estimation schemes of unknown parameters are constructed in the iterative manner for the series of subsystems (z2  zrþ1 ). More precisely, the positive functions V and evaluation of those for each cases n ¼ r þ 2; r þ 1; r are given below. For more detailed stability analysis, see Miyasato (1997b, 1998a).

5. Extension to unknown sign of high-frequency gain – Universal Model Reference Adaptive Controller The adaptive control systems in Section 4, can be modified into the case where the sign of the high-frequency gain is also unknown (Miyasato, 1998c, 2000b). To deal with such unknown element, Nussbaum gain is introduced into Step 1. 5.1. Problem statement Consider the same problem as ‘‘4.1 Problem Statement’’, where AS-1, AS-2, AS-4, AS-5 are assumed, but AS-3 is not necessary here. Fig. 2. Basic concept of design procedure.

Remark 3. The Nussbaum gain in this section is an example in many possible choices, which are discussed by Morse (1985, 1987a) and Nussbaum (1983). The additional condition for the Nussbaum gains in the present paper, is that those should be rtimes differentiable with respect to those arguments. That comes from the backstepping procedure. The next theorem is the second main theorem. Theorem 2. Consider a controlled system(5) and (6)with the assumptionsAS-1, AS-2, AS-4, AS-5. Then it follows that all the signals in the resulting adaptive control system (Step 10 , Step 2 to Step r þ 2) are uniformly bounded, and that the state variables zi ðtÞð1  i  r þ 1Þðwhere z1 ðtÞ ¼ eðtÞÞ converge to zero asymptotically. 5.3. Outline of proof The stability analysis is carried out in the similar way to Section 4based on the same concept and procedures. However,

since Nussbaum gain term is included in Step 10 , the slightly different positive functions V are utilized for each cases n ¼ r þ 2; r þ 1; r. 5.3.1. Outline of stability analysis The positive functions V and evaluation of those for each cases n ¼ r þ 2; r þ 1; r are given below. For more detailed stability analysis, see Miyasato (1998c, 2000b).

where N1 – N4 > 0. It is seen that the left-hand side of the inequality (67)is bounded from below. Thus, mðtÞ should be included in certain bounded region; mðtÞ 2 ½m ; mþ , where 0  m < mþ < 1. Hence, mðtÞ 2 L1 and then it is shown that VðtÞ 2 L1 . It follows that all signals are uniformly bounded, and that the state variables Z1 ðtÞ; z1 ðtÞ– zrþ1 ðtÞ converge to zero asymptotically.

Thus, mðtÞ 2 L1 and then it is shown that VðtÞ 2 L1 , and the same result as the previous two cases is obtained.

6. Adaptive stabilizing control for uncertain relative degree and unknown degree The methodologies in Sections 4 and 5can be applied to adaptive stabilization of plants with uncertain relative degrees and unknown degrees. First, consider the case where the sign of the high-frequency gain is known a priori (Miyasato, 1998d; Miyasato & Hanba, 1997). That assumption will be relaxed in the next section (Miyasato, 2000a). 6.1. Problem statement

A single-input single-output linear system with an additive nonlinear term, is considered as a controlled system: d xðtÞ ¼ AxðtÞ þ buðtÞ þ g f ðyðtÞ; tÞ; dt

AS-1, AS-3, AS-4 are assumed, but AS-2 is not needed (unknown n).

ð f1  0;

f ð0; tÞ ¼ Fð0Þ ¼ 0Þ; (73)

where f1 is an unknown constant, and fðyÞ is a known function of y and r-times differentiable with respect to y. AS-7. The relative degree of cT ðsI  AÞ1 g is greater than 1, when n ¼ r þ 2. Then, the control problem of this paper can be stated as follows: given a system (71)(72)with AS-1, AS-3, AS-4, AS-6, AS-7, determine a suitable controller such that the overall system is stabilized and the output yðtÞ goes to zero asymptotically.

6.3. Adaptive stabilizing control for uncertain relative degree and unknown relative degree The similar procedure is applied to the system representations (Lemma 2) with the known sign of the high-frequency gain b0 . Then, the proposed adaptive stabilizing controller is given below:  Step1: Define state variables z1 ðtÞ; z2 ðtÞ by z1 ðtÞ  eðtÞ ¼ yðtÞ  rðtÞ;

The next theorem is the third main result. Theorem 3. Consider a controlled system(71) and (72)with the assumptionsAS-1, AS-3, AS-4, AS-6, AS-7. Then it follows that all the signals in the resulting adaptive control system (Step 1 to Step r þ 2) are uniformly bounded, and that the state variables zi ðtÞð1  i  r þ 1Þðwhere z1 ðtÞ ¼ yðtÞÞ converge to zero asymptotically. Remark 4. Universal stabilizers for processes with uncertain degrees and relative degrees were studied in the previous works (Mareels, 1984; Ma˚rtensson, 1986; Miller & Davison, 1991; Hanba & Miyasato, 1998). Recently, Hoagg and Bernstein (2004) corrected and extended the result of Mareels (1984), and also proposed a novel universal stabilizer for processes with unknown-but-bounded relative degrees. All of those research works are based on high-gain stabilization, where dynamic compensations with tuning parameters are involved. However, those cannot be applied to model reference control (tracking control) problems, since the high-gain universal stabilizers have limited control structures. On the contrary, the present control schemes (Sections 4-7) utilize the property of strictly positive realness and have more flexible control structures, and can be applied to various control problems, such as model reference control and stabilization problems.

The adaptive control systems in Section 6, can be modified to the case where the sign of the high-frequency gain is also unknown (Miyasato, 2000a). To deal with such uncertainty, Nussbaum gain is introduced into Step 1. 7.1. Problem statement Consider the same problem as ‘‘6.1 Problem Statement’’, where AS-1, AS-4, AS-6, AS-7 are assumed, but AS-3 is not assumed here.

Although the present approach for uncertain relative degrees may not necessarily lead to practical usefulness because of its complicated structure compared with other ones such as switching or iterative design procedures, there still remains an interest for the question, that is, ‘‘what is the minimal prior information to construct stable adaptive control systems?’’ The present state is far from the final goal (solution), and it is still in the middle of the way now.

The next theorem is the last main theorem. Theorem 4. Consider a controlled system(71) and (72)with the assumptionsAS-1, AS-4, AS-6, AS-7. Then it follows that all the signals in the resulting adaptive control system (Step 10 , Step 2 to Step r þ 2) are uniformly bounded, and that the state variables zi ðtÞð1  i  r þ 1Þðwherez1 ðtÞ ¼ yðtÞÞ converge to zero asymptotically. 8. Concluding remarks The methodologies of coping with n ¼ r þ 2 and n ¼ r þ 1, are essentially the same as the preceding researches (Morse, 1985, 1987a). The present version extends those to general relative degree cases via the backstepping procedure. On the contrary, when n ¼ r, strictly positive realness of ‘‘ ðs þ lÞ’’ for Z1 ðtÞis utilized, where an improper transfer function is contained. However, causal synthesis of an control input and adaptive laws are made possible via the proposed backstepping procedure. Thus, the structure n ¼ ris not included in the results (Morse, 1985, 1987a). The present control scheme combines those two composite structures (n ¼ r þ 2; r þ 1and n ¼ r), and extends to the general relative degree case via the backstepping techniques. The numbers of tuning parameters for each cases are given in Table 1, where a large difference is seen between relative degree uncertainty 3ðn ¼ r  r þ 2Þand 2ðn ¼ r þ 1; r þ 2Þ. In the present methods, uncertainty of relative degrees 0–2 is assigned to the first subsystem, only. Then, uncertainty of relative degrees r  r þ 2are accepted in the whole system structure. If such uncertainties could be assigned to multiple subsystems, then much more uncertainties of relative degrees would be dealt with, and finally, arbitrary uncertain relative degrees could be accepted. However, the extension of the proposed methodologies based on that principle, does not have
