Abstract

An extremum seeking control system and a method for controlling a system is provided. The method comprises receiving a tracking error, consecutive measurements of a system output, and consecutive measurements of a cost function of the system, and estimating a gradient based on the tracking error, the consecutive measurements of the system output, and the consecutive measurements of the cost function of the system. The method further comprises determining a step-size based on a ratio of a covariance of the gradient to the gradient, and determining a set-point optimizing performance of the system, based on the gradient and the step-size. The method further comprises controlling the system based on the set-point optimizing performance of the system.
