Proposing A Fuzzy Scheme for switching Multiple Reference Models within the MRAC framework Following a rule base, the scheme effectively monitors drastic changes in plant operating conditions Reference Model switching is performed every time instant based on the plant auxiliary measurements The proposed scheme is computationally feasible and efficient It can be performed online and is well suitable for multimodal systems It provides an interactive multiple model environment with soft switching The proposed scheme is applied to an example system with distributed model parameters to show its effectiveness Abstract
Control of Multi Modal Systems (s.a Aircraft, Robotic Arm) is difficult as the system changes its operating mode arbitrarily Controller Properties: It should be dynamic in nature Efficiently respond to the system changes Keeps track of uncertainties Accordingly, generates appropriate control The Classical MRAC Framework Our Multiple Reference Model Adaptive Controller (MRMAC) Framework Select a set of Reference Models suitable for the system at different modes Modes can include normal parametric variations , external disturbance or both Depending on certain schemes best suitable Reference Model at each time instant is switched and control action is carried out Introduction
Heuristic based Reference Model generation Performs switching of the Reference Model at each time instant with respect to the plant variation Provides a smooth change in the functional relation between the two Process is accomplished keeping track of the plant auxiliary measurements Main idea is to change the Reference Model so that it improves the overall performance in the form of perfect tracking Our Proposed Fuzzy MRMAC Approach
Multi Modal Domain Let the system be characterized by ‘n’ Reference Models Let these Reference Models fits in the parametric space ‘S’ ‘n’ Reference Models can be thought of representation of ‘n’ subspaces in the predefined domain ‘N’ Suppose the plant change is fully captured by these reference models pertaining to the domain ‘N’ If any one reference model can describe the ideal plant characteristic fully at any instant - Subspace is called “Hard Partitioned” Real system often exhibits transition from one subspace to another The MRMAC Concept
Predefined subspaces or modes switching fully from one to another is not advisable Need arise to smoothly change the reference model defining a trajectory movement along with the plant dynamics in order to effectively control the plant Effective along the imaginary boundaries of the subspace where hard switching from one reference model to another can deteriorate the system performance Heurstic based Multiple Reference Model Adaptive Control performs better when compared to a single reference model adaptive control The MRMAC Concept
A set of predefined Reference Models with suitable structure which models the plant for a specific domain of interest An effective switching scheme, which smoothly provides transition between these Reference Models keeping track of the plant change A robust adaptive control scheme, which tunes and provides control at each reference model subspace The main Components of MRMAC

A second order Test System is used for investigation under three mode changes The Test System : 1/(s2+3s-10) Mode 1 :- 1/(s2+30s-10) Mode 2 :- 1/(s2+3s-20) Mode 3 :- 1/(s2+9s-30) The RM that worked best with the original Test System :- 5/(s2+10s+25) The RM that worked best during transition between each mode :- 5/(s2+4s+4) An example Investigation
Three cases are generated each with three modes of plant change Table below shows the plant Multiple Modal changes for these cases Case I Case II Case III Expanding the Test Domain
A fuzzy system knowledge base is created for complete operating domain selecting the appropriate best RM’s Proposed fuzzy logic switching scheme has two inputs, two outputs and nine rules The rule base for the case study consists of three input linguistic terms in the form of Small(S), Medium(M) and Large (L) The input values are taken directly as plant parameter values In physical process these linguistic inputs will be the plant auxiliary measurements An example Fuzzy Logic Scheme
The output values are reference model parametric changes directly There are nine rules which generates two output values Min Operation implication method and centroid deffuzzification method has been employed to generated crisp values Table below shows the rule base An example Fuzzy Logic Scheme

A Multiple Reference Model Adaptive Control scheme with online Fuzzy Switching is proposed for plants with multimodal changes The scheme is very effective and computationally efficient for reference model switching Proposed scheme provides ‘soft' switching of the reference models, especially at the modal boundaries The scheme can be used for scheduled switching in which certain auxiliary measurements are monitored to keep track of unforeseen changes in the plant operating mode With the help of additional learning strategy the rule based switching can be modified online thus expanding the operating range The scheme can be effectively used as an Intelligent Controller for highly dynamic and functionally uncertain systems such as aircraft control ConcludingRemarks
