Abstract-A continuous robust adaptive control method is designed for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with unknown constant time-delays in the states. Specifically, a robust adaptive control method and a delay-free gradient-based desired compensation adaptation law (DCAL) are utilized to compensate for unknown time-delays, linearly parameterizable uncertainties, and additive bounded disturbances for a general nonlinear system. Despite these disturbances, a Lyapunov Krasovskii-based analysis is used to conclude that the system output asymptotically tracks a desired time varying bounded trajectory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
