Robust control using analog adaptive resonance theory

In many control system applications, the system designed must not only satisfy the damping and accuracy specifications, but the control must also yield performance that is robust to external disturbance and parameter variations. We have shown that feedback in conventional control systems has the inherent ability of reducing the effects of external disturbance and parameter variations. Unfortunately, robustness with the conventional feedback configuration is achieved only with a high loop gain, which is normally detrimental to stability. The design of intelligent, autonomous machines to perform tasks that are dull, repetitive, hazardous, or that require skill, strength, or dexterity beyond the capability of humans is the ultimate goal of robotics research. This paper prove the robust control using analog adaptive resonance theory (ART2) algorithm through case study.
