This has been denoted the kernel representation of the system. In this paper it is demonstrated that the kernel representation is a generalization of the left coprime factorization of a general nonlinear system in the sense that it is a dual operator to the right coprime factorization of a nonlinear system. The results obtainable in the linear case linking left and right coprime factorizations are shown to be reproduced within the kernel representation framework.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":355623,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1994 33rd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124848293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The key idea is to construct gradient estimates of the objective function with respect to the threshold values, and to use stochastic recursive algorithms for locating the optimal value. Motivated by designing more feasible methods of solutions, for systems described by differential equations with long run average cost functions, the authors previously developed stochastic optimization algorithms. The main idea is that instead of finding the optimal control of the systems, the authors turn the problem into an optimization problem by focusing their attention to the threshold control type of policies. The underlying problem is then converted to an optimization problem, namely, finding the optimal threshold values. In this paper, after briefly discussing the convergence of the algorithm, the authors concentrate on the rate of convergence issues.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":355623,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1994 33rd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124955024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A filtering procedure is suggested to design filtering equations over discrete-continuous observations (DCO) proceeding from the known filtering equations over continuous ones. This paper aims to obtain filtering equations over DCO with a vector impulse component. The ellipsoidal guaranteed estimation problem is selected as an example that illustrates the difference between filtering equations in scalar and vector distribution. Indeed, the obtained ellipsoidal estimation equations contain discontinuous regular functions in righthand sides. To define a solution uniquely and therefore to use a filtering procedure is possible if a transfer function in an observation equation is a symmetric matrix one. Then a right-hand side of each filtering equation satisfies the one-side solvability condition which is equivalent to the one-side Frobenius condition ensuring uniqueness. A vibrosolution, defined as a unique limit, to a system of ellipsoidal filtering equations is thus to be a pair of ellipsoid parameters optimal in the given sense. In case of scalar distribution the one-side solvability condition is always satisfied.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":355623,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1994 33rd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126152405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, the linear electrical dynamics of brushed DC motors used in the development of the first paper, are replaced with the multiple input nonlinear dynamics of BLDC motors.

The system is input-output linearizable by feedback and is required to satisfy a minimum phase condition. The nonlinearities are not required to satisfy any global growth condition. The model depends linearly on unknown parameters which belong to a known compact, convex set. We design a semiglobal adaptive output feedback controller which ensures that the output of the system tracks any given reference signal which is bounded and has bounded derivatives up to the (n+l)th order, where n is the order of the system. The reference signal and its derivatives are assumed to belong to a known compact set. It is also assumed to be sufficiently rich to satisfy a persistence of excitation condition. The design process is simple. First we assume that the output and its derivatives are available for feedback and design the adaptive controller as a state feedback controller in appropriate coordinates. Then we saturate the controller outside a domain of interest and use a high-gain observer to estimate the derivatives of the output. We prove, via asymptotic analysis, that when the speed of the high-gain observer is sufficiently high, the adaptive output feedback controller recovers the performance achieved under the state feedback one.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":355623,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1994 33rd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125511173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This allows to derive parameter estimation algorithms which are asymptotically unbiased in the presence of noise. A convergence analysis of the parameter estimation algorithm in a stochastic environment using the ODE approach is presented.
