ABSTRACT

Multiple model adaptive control (MMAC) is a model-based control strategy which incorporates a set of model/controller pairs rather than relying on a single model and controller to handle all possible operating conditions. A bank of of models is used with a weighting function which chooses the single model or combination of models that best represents the current plant input-output behaviour. A weighted-sum of the controller outputs is then used to supply the control action to the plant.
