Summary:Commonly, participants of benchmark studies in control are supplied with knowledge of the true system to be controlled, as well as closed loop specifications to be achieved. Exact knowledge of the plant, however, tends to influence the choice of tuning variables and also discourages legitimate use of estimated or guessed information. This paper reports an alternative benchmark, in which participants did not know the true system, which was supplied in the form of scrambled simulation code. The paper describes the problem statement, the true system, and references and briefly surveys the results obtained by nine different research teams. Their approaches include indirect and direct adaptive control, model reference adaptive control, adaptive predictive control, H∞ robust control and robust stability degree assignment.
