Necessary and Sufficient Conditions for LTI Representations of Adaptive Systems with Sinusoidal Regressors

Abstract

This paper establishes necessary and sufficient coneditions for an adaptive system with a sinusoidal regressor (ie., a regressor comprised of sinusoidal signals) to admit an exact linear time-invariant (LTI) representation. These conditions are important because a large number of adaptive systems used in practice have sinusoidal regressors, and the stability, convergence and robustness properties of systems having LTI representations can be completely analyzed by well-known methods.
