In this paper, two theorems are quoted which, when applied together, provide much information about the robustness of adaptive control schemes. From these two theorems, another theorem is developed which can explain why adaptive controllers can perform robustly in certain practical situations, while possibly failing in other situations. In particular, if the bandwidth constraints on a controlsystems are lenient enough to allow the use of a sampling frequency which is smaller than the frequency at which unstructured uncertainty becomes significant, an adaptive controller can behave robustly. Many, if not all, of the applications of adaptive control which have been successful employ relatively slow sampling of the process. Thus, the results of this paper provide a theoretical explanation of how certain adaptive controllers are performing robustly in practice. In addition, the final theorem is of a form which provides insight into what a priori knowledge is required to achieve robust adaptive control and how this knowledge say be used.

The recently obtained evidence of the need for a positive real element in an adaptive system leaves us with a disturbing gap in adaptive control theory. It is a fact that in some applications adaptive controllers are performing well in practice. How can these systems behave well in practical situations which must contain modeling error? This paper introduces a preliminary result which indicates that it may be possible to maintain the needed positive real system in the presence of modeling error. The result shows that if a continuous-time system with large high frequency uncertainty is treated appropriately with antialiasing filters and sampled slowly enough, the resulting discrete-time system may contain very little uncertainty. With small enough uncertainty in the plant, a positive real system in the adaptive loop is possible.

During periods of radio silence under Emission control, communication depends on the slow ship-to-ship, manual-visual, 8-10 wpm Morse code signaling shutter searchlight employing the ac 1000-watt incandescent or the ac 1000-watt compact arc mercury-xenon lamp. These sources can be replaced by the dc compact arc xenon lamp to provide longer daylight ranges and highspeed (100 wpm teletype, 150 wpm Morse code, voice, etc.) communication since this source has superior brightness and the facility of considerably more rapid modulation. The excessive weight and size of the ac-dc power convertor and modulating circuitry which had prevented use of the dc xenon lamp have been overcome by developments in solid state electronics such as the rapid, high current, simmer-flash, 100 to one light output xenon lamp pulsing using the reliable, uncomplicated, low-cost silicon controlled rectifier shunt switch which could eliminate the mechanical signaling shutter. laboratory and sea evaluations have proved the feasibility of and provided the long daylight high-speed optical communication ranges that could be attained from operation of the dc 1000-watt and 2200-watt xenon lamps at the focus of 12-inch, 18-inch searchlights and in the Fresnel lens omni-directional beacon which a command ship uses to signal all ships in a task force at once. With these advances, optical communication provides the highspeed capability of radio communication, particularly, also, with the new omnidirectional transceiver.

The machinery arrangement design process has remained relatively unchanged over the years. Recently, external demands have been placed on both the product and the producers that call for changes to this process. This paper cites these external demands and traces the evolution of the process changes from the rule-of-thumb machinery box sizing routines up to the current automated procedures. The machinery arrangement design practice is presented, and existing analytic and graphics aids are discussed. The user requirements for improved design aids are presented, with implementation guidelines and hardware/software alternatives.

An examination is made of linear regulator problems with an additional cost for applying a nonzero control at each instant. The dual of this problem is the least-squares filtering problem with a cost for taking measurements. Because a solution to the general problem involves solving a two point boundary value problem in nonlinear matrix differential or defference equations, two easily-computed suboptimal control schemes and some useful bounds are proposed. A class of problems is also delineated for which the optimum solution has some special properties which enable it to be computed simply and directly.
Lower bounds are given on the attainable mean-square performance in causally tracking the phase and frequency of a subcarrier that modulates an optical carrier in a direct-detection opticalcommunication system.

A bound is derived on the accuracy in causally estimating a Gaussian process from nonlinear observations. Both additive Gaussian noise and Poisson observations are included. The bound is used to study the control of a stochastic linear dynamical system with nonlinear observations of either type and an average quadratic cost. An asymptotic Separation Theorem is established showing that a linear feedback control law, involving a state estimate, is asymptotically optimum as the accuracy of the state estimate approaches the bound. On dérive une limite sur la précision dans l'estimation causale d'un processus gaussien à partir d'observations non-linéaires. Le bruit additif Gaussien aussi bien que les observations de Poisson sont incluses. La limite est utilisée pour étudier le contrôle d'un système dynamique stochastique linéaire avec observations non-linéaires d'un genre ou d'un autre, et un coût moyen quadratique. Un Théorême de Séparation asymptotique est établi montrant qu'une loi de contrôle de rétroaction linéaire impliquant une estimation d'état, est asymptotiquement optimum à mesure que la précision de l'estimation d'état approche la limite. Abgeleitet wird eine Schranke für die Genauigkeit bei der kausalen Schätzung eines Gauß'schen Prozesses aus nichtlinearen Beobachtungen. Sowohl additives Gauß'sches Rauschen als auch Poisson'sche Beobachtungen sind eingeschlossen. Die Schranke wird benutzt, um die Steuerung eines linearen stochastischen dynamischen systems mit nichtlinearen Beobachtungen beider Typen und durchschnittlichen quadratischen Kosten zu studieren. Ein asymptotisches Separationstheorem wird eingeführt, das zeigt, daß ein eine Zustandsschätzung einschließendes lineares Regelungsgesetz asymptotisch optimal ist, so wie sich die Genauigkeit der Zustandsschätzung der Schranke nähert.
