SUMMARY
Model reference adaptive control system as know adaptive servo system, it consists
two loop also know inner loop and outer loop. The adjustment of controller parameters of
additional input signals it can be make direct and indirect adaptive system. Indirect based on
on-line identification of process follow by controller parameter, while in direct adaptive
system no explicit identification can be recognized. Model reference adaptive control
(MRAS) can be class to direct adaptive system because MRAS can be applied for
identification. Structures of MRAS have optimal as common desired performance system.
MRAS earliest model was be use for aircraft control.
For the design methods it has the sensitivity concept and stability concept. The
sensitivity approaches to design adaptive control by using sensitivity concept for earliest
design. In case stability concept, introduce multipliers into system and make the total system
essentially non linear to prove stability. MRAS method applied in adaptive autopilot for ship
system, no modifications of adaptive loop itself are required and the proof of stability also
remains unchanged. The non linear element is fact removed from control loop.
Realization of MRAS more sophisticated control system can most easily be
implemented with digital hardware. in the former sections the continues time approach has
been followed. Assuming that the process itself is continuous system, there are two ways to
attack the design of discrete one of them to use continuous time algorithms and choose a
sampling interval which allows the discretization to be neglected. The second one are describe
the system in discrete form and derive discrete adjustment laws.
The advantage of unbiased parameter estimates which is realized by applying a
parallel MRAS structure for identification is lost in the case of series parallel MRAS. It can
easily be seen that there is cross correlation if the noise on the process states and noise on the
error, both foe adaptation and identification. for the conclusion that we can include algorithms
have been derived for continuous as well as for discrete MRAS, because strictly speaking
these algorithms are only valid in an idealized case it was also necessary to consider the
consequences of structural differences between process and reference model. For some
solutions have been given the proof of stability is not valid anymore because experience has
shown at work practice.
