Adaptive bounding techniques for stable neural control systems
(IEEE, 1995)This paper considers the design of stable adaptive neural controllers for uncertain nonlinear dynamical systems with unknown nonlinearities. The Lyapunov synthesis approach is used to develop state-feedback adaptive control ...

Adaptive disturbance rejection for disk drives using neural networks
(2008)This paper presents the experimental verification of an adaptive feedforward disturbance rejection scheme for hard disk drives. The control scheme is shown to reduce the error during track-following by as much as 11.8%. ...

Adaptive LQ control with anti-windup augmentation to optimize UAV performance in autonomous soaring applications
(2008)The performance of a glider can be considerably improved by means of soaring and optimization of its trajectory. Recent advances in the area of static soaring assume known linear glider dynamics and no actuator saturation ...

Applications of minimum principle for continuous-time partially observable risk-sensitive control problems
(IEEE, 1995)This paper employs the minimum principle derived in [1], for nonlinear partially observable exponential of integral control problems, to solve linear-exponential-quadratic-Gaussian (LEQG) tracking problems using two different ...

Capacity of the class of MIMO channels with incomplete CDI - Properties of mutual information for a class of channels
(2009)This paper is concerned with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless channel capacity, when the probability distribution of the channel matrix p(H) is not completely known to the transmitter and the receiver. The ...

The capacity of unstable dynamical systems-interaction of control and information transmission
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017)Feedback capacity is extended beyond classical communication channels, to stochastic dynamical systems, which may correspond to unstable control systems or unstable communication channels, subject to average cost constraints ...

Comparision of spacing and headway control laws for automatically controlled vehicles
(1994)This paper investigates two different longitudinal control policies for automatically controlled vehicles. One is based on maintaining a constant spacing between the vehicles while the other is based upon maintaining a ...

Congestion control for differentiated-services using non-linear control theory
(2001)The growing demand of computer usage requires efficient ways of managing network traffic in order to avoid or at least limit the level of congestion in cases where increases in bandwidth are not desirable or possible. Using ...

A control theoretical approach to self-optimizing block transfer in Web service grids
(2008)Nowadays, Web Services (WS) play an important role in the dissemination and distributed processing of large amounts of data that become available on the Web. In many cases, it is essential to retrieve and process such data ...

Decoding algorithm and architecture for BCH codes under the Lee metric
(2008)The Lee metric measures the circular distance between two elements in a cyclic group and is particularly appropriate as a measure of distance for data transmission under phase-shift-keying modulation over a white noise ...

Directly computable L2 and Lx performance bounds for Morse's dynamic certainty equivalence adaptive controller
(1995)In this paper we consider a model reference adaptive control scheme where the classical error augmentation and standard tuning error normalization are avoided through the use of Morse's high order tuner. We consider the ...
