Applicahon of a Simplified Model Reference Adaptive Algorithm

The application of a simplifed model reference adaptive control(SMRAC) on a typical Pump controlled motor electrohydraulic servo system is studied here. The algorithm of first-order scalar SMRAC ac second-order vector SMRAC are derived. Computer simulations of the algorithms are presented. Experimental results prove that the method of control adopted here perform satisfactorily over a wide range of operating conditions.
