Unbiased Parameter Estimation via DREM with Annihilators

Abstract

In adaptive control theory, the dynamic regressor extension and mixing (DREM) procedure has become widespread as it allows one to describe major of adaptive control problems in unified terms of the parameter estimation problem of a regression equation with a scalar regressor. However, when the system/parameterization is affected by perturbations, the estimation laws, which are designed on the basis of such equation, asymptotically provides only biased estimates. In this paper, based on the bias-eliminated least-squares (BELS) approach, a modification of DREM procedure is proposed to annihilate perturbations asymptotically and, consequently, asymptotically obtain unbiased estimates. The theoretical results are supported with mathematical modelling and can be used to design adaptive observers and control systems.
