Abstract
Recent extremum seeking control that uses a continuous perturbation and the integral feedback of perturbation- output product is based on a static nonlinear process. The method can be applied to dynamic nonlinear processes for tracking and maintaining the optimal operating points. It has several tuning parameters, such as the integral controller gain and the magnitude and frequency of the continuous perturbation signal. The frequency of the continuous perturbation signal should be low enough to ensure the time-scale separation between the real-time optimization and the process dynamics for the closed-loop stability. However, for some processes, fast perturbations are preferred because they can be attenuated easily in subsequent processes such as buffers and storages. For this, we propose an extremum seeking control method where the partial sum of perturbation-output product is used for a faster squarewave perturbation. Simulations for two processes of parallel competing reactions have been given, and a simple liquid level system to test extremum seeking control methods is suggested.
