Summary
This study introduces adaptive time-delayed feedback controllers to stabilize systems. These controllers improve stability for steady states and periodic orbits, offering advantages like reduced controller gain.
Area of Science:
- Control theory
- Dynamical systems
Background:
- Stabilizing fixed points and periodic orbits is crucial in control systems engineering.
- Traditional controllers may require high gains or struggle with complex dynamics.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop novel adaptive time-delayed feedback controllers.
- To demonstrate their effectiveness in stabilizing steady states and periodic orbits.
- To analyze the performance advantages over non-adaptive methods.
Main Methods:
- Application of the speed-gradient method to a goal function for steady-state stabilization.
- Development of adaptive time-delayed algorithms for periodic orbit stabilization.
- Local stability analysis and numerical simulations to validate controller performance.
Main Results:
- Global asymptotic stability is proven for the adaptive steady-state controller.
- Adaptive controllers show potential for smaller controller gains compared to non-adaptive ones.
- Numerical examples confirm the applicability and efficiency of the proposed controllers for periodic orbits.
Conclusions:
- Adaptive time-delayed feedback controllers offer a robust method for stabilizing dynamical systems.

The time response of a linear time-invariant (LTI) system can be divided into transient and steady-state responses. The transient response represents the system's initial reaction to a change in input and diminishes to zero over time. In contrast, the steady-state response is the behavior that persists after the transient effects have faded.
The stability of an LTI system is determined by the roots of its characteristic equation, known as poles. A system is stable if it produces a bounded...

Proportional-Derivative (PD) control is a widely used control method in various engineering systems to enhance stability and performance. In a system with only proportional control, common issues include high maximum overshoot and oscillation, observed in both the error signal and its rate of change. This behavior can be divided into three distinct phases: initial overshoot, subsequent undershoot, and gradual stabilization.

Nonlinear systems often require sophisticated approaches for accurate modeling and analysis, with state-space representation being particularly effective. This method is especially useful for systems where variables and parameters vary with time or operating conditions, such as in a simple pendulum or a translational mechanical system with nonlinear springs.

System stability is a fundamental concept in signal processing, often assessed using convolution. For a system to be considered bounded-input bounded-output (BIBO) stable, any bounded input signal must produce a bounded output signal. A bounded input signal is one where the modulus does not exceed a certain constant at any point in time.
To determine the BIBO stability, the convolution integral is utilized when a bounded continuous-time input is applied to a Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) system....

The transfer function is a fundamental concept representing the ratio of two polynomials. The numerator and denominator encapsulate the system's dynamics. The zeros and poles of this transfer function are critical in determining the system's behavior and stability.
Simple poles are unique roots of the denominator polynomial. Each simple pole corresponds to a distinct solution to the system's characteristic equation, typically resulting in exponential decay terms in the system's...

In control systems, test signals are essential for evaluating performance under various conditions. The ramp function is effective for systems undergoing gradual changes, while the step function is suitable for assessing systems facing sudden disturbances. For systems subjected to shock inputs, the impulse function is the most appropriate test signal.
