A simultaneous adaptation law for a class of nonlinearly-parametrized switched systems

This letter proposes a new adaptive control method for a class of nonlinearly-parametrized switched systems that includes Monod kinetics and Euler-Lagrange systems with nonlinear in parameters form as special cases. As compared to the adaptive switched frameworks proposed in literature, the proposed adaptation framework has the distinguishing...

An Underactuated Control System Design for Adaptive Autopilot of Fixed-Wing Drones

Effective design of autopilots for fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is still a great challenge, due to unmodeled effects and uncertainties that these vehicles exhibit during flight. Unmodeled effects and uncertainties comprise longitudinal/lateral cross-couplings, as well as poor knowledge of equilibrium points (trimming points) of...
