ASPR models can be stabilized by applying simple output feedback control; so the designed controllers have a simple structure. However, the systems have to satisfy quite strict conditions in order to obtain ASPR-ness, although almost all practical systems do not have the ASPR property. Therefore, for relaxing those conditions, the introduction of a Parallel Feedforward Compensator (PFC) has been proposed. This method can render the resulting augmented system ASPR. Up to now, several PFC design methods have been proposed, and one of them is an adaptive PFC design scheme. This technique has a feature that it can design a PFC automatically by utilizing online data. Furthermore, for the purpose of output regulation, the control design methods with an adaptive PFC have been proposed. Unfortunately, however, in almost all schemes, the discussion on the convergence of actual errors has not been conducted. Therefore, in this paper, introducing a virtual PFC model and an auxiliary input for ensuring ASPR-ness, a new ASPR-based output feedback control method is proposed, and the stability analysis and convergence of the actual error are discussed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed via numerical simulations.}, pages = {9245--9250}, title = {ASPR-based Output Feedback Control with Virtual PFC for Output Tracking}, volume = {56}, year = {2023} }
