There have been recent efforts that combine seemingly disparate methods, extremum seeking (ES) optimization and partial differential equation (PDE) backstepping, to address the problem of model-free optimization with PDE actuator dynamics. In contrast to prior PDE-compensating ES designs, which only guarantee local stability around the extremum, we introduce unbiased ES that compensates for delay and diffusion PDE dynamics while ensuring exponential and unbiased convergence to the optimum. Our method leverages exponentially decaying/growing signals within the modulation/demodulation stages and carefully selected design parameters. The stability analysis of our designs relies on a state transformation, infinite-dimensional averaging, local exponential stability of the averaged system, local stability of the transformed system, and local exponential stability of the original system. Numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the efficacy of the developed designs., Comment: Submitted to the 63rd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), 2024
