A Study on Personal Fit Control Design based on Extremum Seeking Approach

As WHO advocates well-being, people must be physically, mentally, and socially satisfied. Japan is aiming to realize well-being under a policy called Society 5.0. In this background, this study proposes a basic design scheme of a personal-fit control system in a feedback loop composed of a machine and a human. The personal-fit control system automatically searches for the optimal characteristics of a system to maximize a user's personal-fit index based on an extremum seeking control approach. The personal-fit control system automatically can achieve a vehicle behavior that a user desires. The simulation results show that a vehicle model can automatically adjust its system parameters to match the internal model that a driver assumes.
