MODEL-FREE ADAPTIVE CONTROL FOR INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES

An enhanced model-free adaptive controller is disclosed, which consists of a linear dynamic neural network that can be easily configured and put in automatic mode to control simple to complex processes. Two multivariable model-free adaptive controller designs are disclosed. An enhanced anti-delay model-free adaptive controller is introduced to control processes with large time delays. A feedforward/feedback model-free adaptive control system with two designs is introduced to compensate for measurable disturbances.
