As an alternative to both classical PID-type and modern model-based approaches to solving control problems, active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) has gained significant traction in recent years. With its simple tuning method and…
Advanced regulatory control (ARC), also known as advanced PID architectures, is a simple and robust way of controlling processes with changing and possibly conflicting constraints, where it previously was believed - at least in academia -…
