In recent years there has been a growing attention towards use of solar energy. The main
advantages of photovoltaic (PV) systems employed for harnessing solar energy are lack of …

In this paper, we present an overview of adaptive control by contrasting model‐based
approaches with data‐driven approaches. Indeed, we propose to classify adaptive …

This book categorizes the wide area of data-driven model-free controllers, reveals the exact
benefits of such controllers, gives the in-depth theory and mathematical proofs behind them …

Extremum seeking is a form of adaptive control where the steady-state input-output
characteristic is optimized, without requiring any explicit knowledge about this input-output …

In this paper, we consider several extremum seeking schemes and show under appropriate
conditions that these schemes achieve extremum seeking from an arbitrarily large domain of …

In this paper, an online energy management control strategy is proposed based on a novel
fractional-order extremum seeking (ES) method. The proposed method is an online adaptive …

The year in which this book appears is the centennial of the 1922 invention, in the context of
maximizing the power transfer to an electric tram car [130], of the method for real-time …

A stability analysis for a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) scheme based on extremum-
seeking control is developed for a photovoltaic (PV) array supplying a dc-to-dc switching …

As an online adaptive optimization algorithm, the extremum seeking method (ESM) can be
effectively employed to find an optimal operating point of a static nonlinear system in real …

We pose and solve an extremum seeking control problem for a class of nonlinear systems
with unknown parameters. Extremum seeking controllers are developed to drive system …
