Moving-Bank Multiple Model Adaptive Estimation Applied to Flexible Spacestructure Control

Abstract

A significant problem in estimation and control is the uncertainty of parameters in the mathematical model used in the design of controllers and/or estimators. These parameters may be unknown, varying slowly, or changing abruptly due to a failure in the physical system. These changes in parameters often necessitate the identification of parameters within the mathematical model and changing the mathematical model during a real-time control problem. This is often referred to as adaptive control and/or estimation. This thesis investigates methods of adaptive control implementing a moving-bank multiple model adaptive estimator.
