Nonlinear Voltage Regulation of an Auxiliary Energy Storage of a Multiport Interconnection
In this article, we propose a nonlinear voltage control to ensure power exchange in a multiport interconnected system, which consists of a bidirectional DC-DC converter and generating-storing devices.
A New Adaptive Phase-locked Loop for Synchronization of a Grid-Connected Voltage Source Converter: Simulation and Experimental Results
In [1] a new adaptive phase-locked loop scheme for synchronization of a grid connected voltage source converter with guaranteed (almost) global stability properties was reported.
On-line Parameter Estimation of the Polarization Curve of a Fuel Cell with Guaranteed Convergence Properties: Theoretical and Experimental Results
In this paper, we address the problem of online parameter estimation of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) polarization curve, that is the static relation between the voltage and the current of the PEMFC.
Synthesis of an adaptive observer of state variables for a linear stationary object in the presence of measurement noise
It is also assumed that there is no a priori information about the disturbance or noise in the measurement channel (for example, frequency spectrum, covariance, etc.).
Output Voltage Regulation of a Fuel Cell/Boost Converter System: A PI-PBC Approach
We show that, in spite of the inherent nonlinearities in the current-voltage behaviour of the fuel cell, the voltage of a fuel cell/boost converter system can be regulated with a simple proportional-integral (PI) action designed following the {Passivity-based Control (PBC) approach.
A Globally Convergent Estimator of the Parameters of the Classical Model of a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor
In this paper we provide the first solution to the challenging problem of designing a globally exponentially convergent estimator for the parameters of the standard model of a continuous stirred tank reactor.
A high performance globally exponentially stable sensorless observer for the IPMSM: Theoretical and experimental results
In a recent paper [18] the authors proposed the first solution to the problem of designing a {\em globally exponentially stable} (GES) flux observer for the interior permanent magnet synchronous motor.
On-line Identification of Photovoltaic Arrays' Dynamic Model Parameters
While there are many results of identification of the parameters of the latter model, to the best of our knowledge, no one has provided a solution for the aforementioned more complex dynamic model since it concerns the parameter estimation of a nonlinear, underexcited system with unmeasurable state variables.
An Observer-Based Composite Identifier for Online Estimation of the Thevenin Equivalent Parameters of a Power System
We consider a Th\'evenin equivalent circuit capturing the dynamics of a power grid as seen from the point of common coupling with a power electronic converter, and provide a solution to the problem of online identification of the corresponding circuit parameters.
Indirect Adaptive Control of Nonlinearly Parameterized Nonlinear Dissipative Systems
In this note we address the problem of indirect adaptive (regulation or tracking) control of nonlinear, input affine dissipative systems.
An Almost Globally Stable Adaptive Phase-Locked Loop for Synchronization of a Grid-Connected Voltage Source Converter
In this paper we are interested in the problem of adaptive synchronization of a voltage source converter with a possibly weak grid with unknown angle and frequency, but knowledge of its parameters.
On-line Estimation of the Parameters of the Windmill Power Coefficient
Wind turbines are often controlled to harvest the maximum power from the wind, which corresponds to the operation at the top of the bell-shaped power coefficient graph.
An Adaptive Observer for Uncertain Linear Time-Varying Systems with Unknown Additive Perturbations
In this paper we are interested in the problem of adaptive state observation of linear time-varying (LTV) systems where the system and the input matrices depend on unknown time-varying parameters.

In this paper we are interested in the problem of state observation of state-affine nonlinear systems.
Identifiability Implies Robust, Globally Exponentially Convergent On-line Parameter Estimation: Application to Model Reference Adaptive Control
The estimators are shown to be robust to additive measurement noise and--not necessarily slow--parameter variations.
Persistent Excitation is Unnecessary for On-line Exponential Parameter Estimation: A New Algorithm that Overcomes this Obstacle
In this paper, we prove that it is possible to estimate online the parameters of a classical vector linear regression equation $ Y=\Omega \theta$, where $ Y \in \mathbb{R}^n,\;\Omega \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times q}$ are bounded, measurable signals and $\theta \in \mathbb{R}^q$ is a constant vector of unknown parameters, even when the regressor $\Omega$ is not persistently exciting.

We present a full review of PID passivity-based controllers (PBC) applied to power electronic converters, discussing limitations, unprecedented merits and potential improvements in terms of large-signal stability, robustness and performance.
Conditions for Convergence of Dynamic Regressor Extension and Mixing Parameter Estimator Using LTI Filters
Regarding PE we prove that, under some mild technical assumptions, if $\phi(t)$ is PE then the scalar regressor of DREM, $\Delta(t) \in \mathbb{R}$, is also PE, ensuring exponential convergence.
