Abstract

This paper aims to analyse the system stability when decentralized adaptive controllers are applied to multi-input/multi-output non-linear interconnected systems. The local adaptive controllers are designed based on linear models by employing relative deadzones. Using a small-gain-type argument, we can derive an M-matrix test condition for local stability. If the system to be controlled can be described by global Lipschitz functions, a global stable closed-loop system is obtained.
