Towards an Adaptive Robust Controller

Abstract There has been much discussion in recent literature on the question of robustness properties of adaptive control algorithms. The point of view adopted in this paper is that a “robust” adaptive control algorithm is simply a combination of a “robust” control law with a “robust” parameter estimator. Since the constituent algorithms are themselves robust, we have coined the term adaptive robust control rather than the usual term robust adaptive control.
