Abstract
The continuous model reference adaptive control system with an amplitude constrained input signal is discussed in this paper. The plant to be controlled is assumed to have stable poles and zeros. The adaptive algorithm stated here is based on what Monopoli presented. The purpose of this paper is to analize the behavior of such an adaptive system when t tends to infinity. The sufficient condition for the adaptive input to become free from the amplitude constraint and to converge to the desired input signal as t tends to infinity is considered. The modified continuous adaptive algorithm is also presented to improve the trangent adaptive response.
