An on-line scheme to fault detection in adaptive controlsystems is proposed by introducing Kullbaek Discrimination Information (KDI) as a detection index. When a physical parameter change due to a failure has occurred in a system under adaptive control, the failure effect will hardly be visible in the output performance because of the adaptation mechanism. Such a parameter change is also difficult to detect by monitoring the regulator parameters, which are determined by a recursive identification based on the direct approach. Since the failure effect is reflected as a change in the predictor model used for the adaptive control design, the fault detection leads to a model discrimination problem. It has been shown that the KDI can be used as an effective distortion measure for the model discrimination and the index can be applied in a modified form to detect a fault on-line. Simulation studies on a second order damped oscillatory system have been carried out to demonstrate the efficiency of the method.

For the last four years the most advanced surface combat direction system (CDS) of the U.S. Navy has employed a limited knowledge-based control mechanism. Implemented in the Aegis Weapon System's command and decision element, this capability is called control by doctrine, and is a foundation for the Ticonderoga class cruisers' exceptional performance. control by doctrine allows CIC personnel to direct that certain CDS functions be performed automatically upon tracks with specified characteristics. In effect, these CDS functions, from identification to engagement, can now be controlled through the specification and activation of general system response rules rather than by individual operator actions. The set of active rules, called doctrine statements, forms a system knowledge-base. The Advanced Combat Direction System, Block 1, successor to today's Naval Tactical Data System, will also employ control by doctrine. As part of a larger effort investigating Aegis/ACDS commonality issues, a Doctrine Working Group was chartered to consider, among other things, implications for force-wide interoperability of multiple systems with such rule-based control mechanisms. The working group produced a set of design objectives for doctrine statement standardization across CDSs. Principal features of these objectives are described. The prospect of several such ships operating together in a battle group has raised questions as to the methods by which the actions of ships with those doctrinally-automated systems can best be coordinated. Related questions deal with specific design features for the support of such coordinated action. Work is now being carried out to investigate these questions. Combat system automation through doctrine statements is only one kind of rule-based control. Much work in the area of artificial intelligence deals with the use and maintenance of complex systems of rules, usually in non-real-time problem solving applications. Such systems are just now beginning

A sufficient condition is derived for the existence of an output constant gain feedback controller which stabilizes a single-input single-output dynamical system with a linear nominal part and matched uncertainties. The sufficient condition is significantly less restrictive than a recently derived one [1]. If such a controller exists, it may readily be computed.
