This work examines the optimal covariance steering problem for systems subject to unknown parameters that enter multiplicatively with the state and control, in addition to additive disturbances. In contrast to existing works, the unknown parameters are modeled as random variables and are estimated online. This work proposes the utilization of recursive least squares estimation for efficient parameter identification. A dual control problem is formulated in which the effect of the planned control policy on the parameter estimates is modeled and optimized for. The parameter estimates are then used to modify the pre-computed control policy online in an adaptive control fashion. Finally, the proposed approach is demonstrated in a vehicle control example with closed-loop parameter identification.
