Adaptive Control Techniques for Large Space Structures

Abstract

This report summarizes the research performed on adaptive control techniques for Large Space Structures (LSS). The research effort concentrated on two areas: (1) on-line robust design from identified models - what is referred to here as adaptive calibration; and (2) an analysis of slow-adaptation for adaptive control of LSS. The report summarizes the results obtained in theses areas and also includes Appendices which contain technical articles: (1) Adaptive Control of Large Space Structures; (2) Adaptive Control Via Finite Modeling and Robust Control; (3) On the use of the Method of Averaging for the Stability analysis of Adaptive Linear Control Systems; and (4) Conditions for the Convergence and Divergence of Parameter Adaptive Linear Systems.
