Design and Analysis of a Novel L1 Adaptive Controller, Part II: Guaranteed Transient Performance

In this paper, we present a novel adaptive control architecture that ensures that the input and output of an uncertain linear system track the input and output of a desired linear system during the transient phase, in addition to the asymptotic tracking. Design guidelines are presented to ensure that the desired transient specifications can be achieved for both system´s input and output signals. The tools from this paper can be used to develop a theoretically justified verification and validation framework for adaptive systems. Simulation results illustrate the theoretical findings
