I. Course Description:
This is a course designed for graduate students, which will provide techniques that can help you to analyze linear or nonlinear systems with unknown parameters. And even more, you can use them to design the system controller you need for the desired tracking purpose. The course outline will be roughly the following:
1.Introduction
2.Mathematical Preliminaries
3.Identification
4.Adaptive Control
5.Robust Adaptive Control
6.Advanced Topics in Identification and Adaptive Control
7.Adaptive Control of a Class of Nonlinear Systems
