Abstract
This paper modifies the prototype model-free adaptive control (PMFAC) approach in which system output fluctuation and overshoot (SOFO) is easy to occur. Targeting a class of nonlinear discrete-time single-input single-output systems, historical input/output sensor data are utilized to online construct equivalent explicit data model for control design, making the controller model-free. Then, a novel compensation input term including a compensation gain and a signum function parameterized by incremental output is proposed to soften system inputs, which can in turn restrain the SOFO. Numerical simulations and a speed control experiment for a direct current motor verify that the modified approach can restrain the SOFO successfully and reduce response time compared with the PMFAC.
