This book gives a comprehensive overview of the recently developed ℒ1 adaptive control
theory with detailed proofs of the fundamental results. The key feature of ℒ1 adaptive control …

Safety-critical systems appear in several application areas, such as transportation and air-
traffic control systems, nuclear plants, space systems, and operating rooms in hospitals …

The paper presents a three-dimensional path-following control algorithm that expands the
capabilities of conventional autopilots, which are normally designed to provide only …

In this paper we present an extension of the L1 adaptive control architecture to nonlinear
systems in the presence of significant uncertain cross-coupling. To evaluate the L1 adaptive …

This paper addresses the trajectory tracking control (ie, outer-loop control) problem for
unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the presence of modeling uncertainties and external …

Autonomous robots that are capable of operating safely in the presence of imperfect model
knowledge or external disturbances are vital in safety-critical applications. In this paper, we …

This paper presents results of a flight test of the L-1 adaptive control architecture designed to
directly compensate for significant uncertain cross-coupling in nonlinear systems. The flight …

As the complexity of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) increases, it becomes more and more
challenging to ensure the reliability of CPS, especially in the presence of system failures …

This paper presents the design of an L 1 adaptive controller for maximum power point
tracking (MPPT) of a small variable speed wind energy conversion system (WECS). The …

We survey some of the rich history of control over the past century with a focus on the major
milestones in adaptive systems. We review classic methods and examples in adaptive linear …
