An Improved Model-Free Adaptive Control Algorithm and the Application in Aero-engines

This paper investigates problems of aero-engines control for MIMO systems based on a compact dynamic linearization model-free adaptive control (CFDL-MFAC) method. To address such problems, an improved control algorithm is proposed by utilizing a combination of CFDL-MFAC, proportional control and anti-windup algorithm to improve the response speed and suppress the overshoot. Meanwhile, it proves that such an algorithm can guarantee the convergence of tracking error. Finally, three numerical simulation cases of aero-engines are given to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm.
