Tao G. Kokotovic P.V. Adaptive Control of Systems with Actuator and Sensor Nonlinearities

Wiley, New York, 1996. — 320 p. — ISBN 0-471-15654-X.An in-depth examination of intelligent approaches to increasing the accuracy of a variety of system components. Utilizing a unified, adaptive, inverse approach, the book offers electrical, mechanical, chemical, aeronautical and computer engineers methods for controlling many of the "hard" nonlinearities of frequently-employed control systems such as dead-zone, backlash and hysteresis. Discusses such nonlinearities at both the input and output points of a linear part and within both continuous time designs and discrete time designs.
