title: A comparison of traditional and adaptive control strategies for systems with time delay.
abstract: A recently developed tuning method is compared to an adaptive Smith Predictor control strategy. The robustness of each method is considered for time-varying plant parameters. Examples with simulations are provided to compare the methods and present conclusions on the advantages and disadvantages of each.
