Model reference adaptive decentralized control for a class of time-delay composite systems

The model reference adaptive control problem is discussed for a class of time-delay large-scale composite systems. In the project design of model reference adaptive control, the choice of reference model has a very important meaning. Considering the important function of the interconnected terms in composite system, a new idea for choosing the reference model is put forward: add the interconnection items in the reference model subsystems based on thinking of the interaction adequately which might (or should) exist between each subsystem according to the expectant performance index in the system. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, the adaptive control law is given and the global uniformly convergence is proved.
