Abstract
Operating conditions are often changing so strongly that the changes in nonlinearities must be taken into account. A practical solution comprises several intelligent systems: intelligent analyzers make the adaptation easier by providing informative measurements for the controller, and high-level control supervises the adaptation procedure. Linguistic equation (LE) controllers combine various control strategies, and their compact matrix-based implementation is essential in building multilevel control systems including adaptation, prediction and several control strategies. Dynamic simulation with LE models is a very fast and reliable method for controller tuning. Applications provide good examples of a smart adaptive application consisting of practical and interactive small-scale intelligent systems.
