Adaptive experiment design for LTI systems

Abstract: Optimal experiment design for parameter estimation is a research topic that has been in the interest of various studies. A key problem in optimal input design is that the optimal input depends on some unknown system parameters that are to be identified. Adaptive design is one of the fundamental routes to handle this problem. Although there exist a rich collection of results on adaptive experiment design, there are few results that address these issues for dynamic systems. This paper proposes an adaptive input design method for general single-input single-output linear-time-invariant systems.
