Abstract

A unified description of many types of self-tuners is given. Relations to design of controllers for systems with known parameters and recursive estimation methods are emphasized. The distinction between self-tuners based on identification of explicit and implicit process models are discussed as well as the relations between Self-Tuning Regulators (STR), and Model Reference Adaptive Systems (MRAS). An overview of practical problems and operational issues is given. The particular problems of integral action and estimator windup are covered in more detail.
