Recently, a new class of adaptive control schemes based on non-linear design techniques, have been proposed for minimum phase linear time invariant plants. Under certain assumptions on the plant transfer function, these schemes guarantee uniform signal boundedness and good transient and steady-state response for the regulation or tracking error. In this paper we propose a modification that improves the robustness of these schemes with respect to a class of multiplicative uncertainties and input, output disturbances, without loss of performance. This lack of a trade-off between performance and robustness is a result of restricting the multiplicative unmodelled dynamics to be small in both the low- and high-frequency range. It is also shown that parameter convergence and performance improvement is achieved with a dominantly rich reference input.
