Abstract :
A family of three universal adaptive controllers (adaptive controllers applicable to a wide range of plants with different structures) is presented, one for each of three cases: first-order plants, second-order plants, and third-order plants. The family of universal adaptive controllers presented here is novel in the respect that each controller is linear and completely time-invariant. Numerous simulation examples are presented to illustrate the universality of the controllers.<>
