A Multi-Dimensional Self-Optimizing Control System Involving Dynamics and Disturbances, Employing Relay Extremum Control

  • Conference paper
Theory of Self-Adaptive Control Systems

Abstract

Investigated is the applicability of the relay- self-oscillating method, in which the optimiser generates its own testsignals, composed of ramps. Various kinds of instrumentation schemes for one- and three-dimensional systems are applied. Experimental results are discussed for different types of non-linear performance surfaces, input and output dynamics (critically, over- and underdamped), noise, disturbances and constraints, A very wide class of systems and disturbances produced a proper working as to convergence speed and hunting loss. An application to a real one-dimensional system is given.
