Abstract

A new scheme of adaptive control is proposed. This scheme does not require a priori knowledge of the structure of the plant to be controlled. The principal part of the scheme is a procedure which decides the order of the model of the plant. A criterion for the order determination is developed. Using this criterion, we can decide whether to keep the current controller or to adopt a new controller based on the information gathered during the operation of the system. The effectiveness of the scheme is illustrated by a numerical example.
