Abstract :
The control of hybrid systems in which a totally observed state process is generated by a nonlinear stochastic differential equation whose parameters are functions of a random jump process called the plant regime is considered. Regime transitions typically represent target maneuvers in a tracking system. The control task is split between a jump detection and identification (JDI) filter and a discrete adaption, or reconfiguration. A design that takes into account the errors of the JDI device and the plant nonlinearities to produce a near-optimal passively adaptive control law with an easily implemented affine structure is presented
