Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Adaptive control originated from the gain scheduling control of high-performance aircraft in the early 1950s. To be specific, model reference adaptive control (MRAC) was proposed by Whitaker et al. to solve the control problem of an autopilot. From the viewpoint of theory research, self-tuning control (STC) was proposed by Kalman in 1958 to deal with the optimal control of a stochastic system with unknown or time-varying parameters and then connected with actual applications in paper-making machine through the pioneering work of Astrom and Wittenmark. It is well known that identification is the most important component of an adaptive control system.

This Special Issue will explore recent technological developments in adaptive identification and control (design methods and theoretical analysis), especially for nonlinear stochastic processes such as robotic systems, manufacturing systems, transportation systems, power systems, chemical systems, etc.

Original research articles and reviews are welcome in this Special Issue. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:

  • Identification and self-tuning adaptive control;
  • Event-triggered adaptive identification and control;
  • Intelligent adaptive control;
  • Robust adaptive control;
  • Adaptive sliding-mode control.

To improve the speed buffering and position tracking accuracy of medium–high-speed permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), a sensorless control method based on an improved sliding mode observer is proposed. By the mathematical model of the built-in PMSM, an improved adaptive super-twisting sliding mode observer is constructed. Based on the LSTA-SMO with a linear term of observation error, a sliding mode coefficient can be adjusted in real time according to the change in rotational speed. In view of the high harmonic content of the output back electromotive force, the adaptive adjustment strategy for the back electromotive force is adopted. In addition, in order to improve the estimation accuracy and resistance ability of the observer, the rotor position error was taken as the disturbance term, and the third-order extended state observer (ESO) was constructed to estimate the rotational speed and rotor position through the motor mechanical motion equation. The proposed method is validated in Matlab and compared with the conventional linear super twisted observer. The simulation results show that the proposed method enables the observer to operate stably in a wide velocity domain and reduces the velocity estimation error to 6.7 rpm and the position estimation accuracy error to 0.0005 rad at high speeds, which improves the anti-interference capability.

In order to enhance the accuracy of ventilator parameter setting, this paper analyzes two identification methods for respiratory characteristic parameters of non-invasive ventilators and invasive ventilators. For non-invasive ventilators, a respiratory characteristic parameter identification method based on a respiration model is established. In this method, the patient’s respiratory sample set is obtained through non-invasive measurements. Experimental results demonstrate that the mean relative error of pulmonary elastance identification was 14.25%, and the mean relative error of intrapulmonary pressure identification was 12.33% using the Romberg integral algorithm. For chronic patients using non-invasive ventilators, the fault-tolerant space for ventilator parameter setting is large; this method meets the requirement of auxiliary setting of non-invasive ventilator parameters. For invasive ventilators, a respiratory characteristic parameter identification method based on the AVOV–BP neural network is established. In this method, the patient’s respiratory sample set is obtained through real-time invasive measurements. Even with small sample datasets, experimental results show that the mean relative error of pulmonary elastance identification and intrapulmonary pressure identification were both 0.22%. For critically ill patients using invasive ventilators, the fault-tolerant space for ventilator parameter setting is small; this method meets the requirement of auxiliary setting of invasive ventilator parameters.
