A Proximate Time-Optimal Servo (PTOS) is developed, along with conditions for its stability. An algorithm is proposed for adapting the PTOS (APTOS) to improve performance in the face of uncertain plant parameters. Under ideal conditions APTOS is shown to be uniformly asymptotically stable. Simulation results demonstrate the predicted performance.
Following a review of the continuous time proximate time-optimal servomechanism (PTOS), a discrete-time PTOS is developed, along with conditions for its stability. An algorithm is proposed for adapting PTOS when the plant parameters are not known yielding APTOS (adaptive PTOS). Under ideal conditions APTOs is shown to be uniformly asymptotically stable. Simulation results demonstrate the predicted performance, and experimental results validate the practically of APTOS.
