Extremum Seeking Control

Encyclopedia of Systems and Control

Abstract

Extremum seeking (ES) is a method for real-time non-model-based optimization. Though ES was invented in 1922, the “turn of the twenty-first century” has been its golden age, both in terms of the development of theory and in terms of its adoption in industry and in fields outside of control engineering. This entry overviews basic gradient- and Newton-based versions of extremum seeking with periodic and stochastic perturbation signals.
