Stochastic Control

  • Chapter
Functional Adaptive Control

Abstract

In this chapter, some important techniques underpinning stochastic control theory are reviewed. Although the emphasis is on stochastic adaptive methods, i.e., those dealing with systems having unknown parameters, completeness and clarity demand that occasionally the non-adaptive case is also considered. As in most publications on stochastic control, only the discrete-time case is considered because the controller is likely to be implemented as a digital computer programme.
