Limits On The Identification Time For Linear Systems, G. R. Cooper, J. C. Lindenbaud Feb 1961

Limits On The Identification Time For Linear Systems, G. R. Cooper, J. C. Lindenbaud

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

The problem, of estimating the impulse response of a linear system arises is adaptive, control problems and elsewhere. Often it is necessary to make the system identification in the presence of external noise disturbances. This work considers the problem of determining the time that is necessary to estimate the impulse response of a linear system with a specified variance. It is assumed that' essentially no a priori knowledge about the unknown system is available, and that the output signal of the system is corrupted by an additive stationary noise signal. An ideal identifier is defined as a device that yields, …


A Class Of Predictive Adaptive Controls, John E. Gibson, J. S. Meditch Feb 1961

A Class Of Predictive Adaptive Controls, John E. Gibson, J. S. Meditch

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

A new class of control systems termed predictive adaptive controls is developed and the performance characteristics are investigated analytically and experimentally. The concepts of signal prediction, interval control, and synthesis of the control variable by a sum of orthonormal polynomials in t are introduced and developed in relation to adaptive control. A modified least squares integral index of performance is formulated and used as the criterion for system optimization. Control of dynamic processes is subdivided into intervals of a specified length T and prediction is used to obtain estimates of future values of system error. Minimization of the index of …


Microwave Energy Conversion, E. M. Sabbagh Jan 1961

Microwave Energy Conversion, E. M. Sabbagh

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

Plasma Diode. Operating conditions for the microwave absorber are set forth. A tapered coaxial load is proposed in which the outside of the load is also the cathode of the plasma diode which should operate at temperatures of 2000 - 2500° K, The load and cathode temperature must be raised from about 300°K to operating temperature by microwave power. A test set up is proposed for making the necessary measurements of conductivity, thermal and mechanical properties of the more promising absorber-cathode materials. Some of the test equipment is not yet available but tests at room temperature on conductivity at microwave …

The Scattering Of A Plane Electromagnetic Wave By A Finite Cone, C. C. Rogers, F. V. Schultz Aug 1960

The Scattering Of A Plane Electromagnetic Wave By A Finite Cone, C. C. Rogers, F. V. Schultz

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

This paper treats the solution of the -vector Helmholtz equation for the case of a plane electromagnetic wave at ’nose-on' incidence, on a perfectly-conducting cone of finite size* The solution presented is exact and in the form of an infinite series of spherical harmonics. The expansion coefficients of the series are determined by a set of an infinite number of equations involving an infinite number of unknowns. A discussion and numerical investigation of the field singularities at the tip and edge of the cone are included* as well as graphs of the associated Legendre functions of non-integral degree, P1(cos θ), …


A Survey Of The Philosophy And State Of The Art Of Adaptive Systems, G. R. Cooper, Gibson J. E., Eveleigh V. W., Lindenlaub J. C., Meditch J. S., Raible R. H. Jul 1960

A Survey Of The Philosophy And State Of The Art Of Adaptive Systems, G. R. Cooper, Gibson J. E., Eveleigh V. W., Lindenlaub J. C., Meditch J. S., Raible R. H.

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

This is a preliminary report on the state of the art of adaptive control. It in no way attempts to review all of the various adaptive systems which have been proposed or constructed® Probably the most complete effort in this direction is WADC TR 59-49# The Proceedings of the Self Adaptive Flight Control Systems Symposium, Edited by P. C. Gregory® Rather this report attempts a synthesis of the present philosophy on adaptive control and is essentially a definition of the problem® The report attempts to subdivide the adaptive control problem into three subdivisions and to assess present progress in each …
