Output recurrent wavelet neural network-based adaptive backstepping controller for a class of MIMO nonlinear non-affine uncertain systems

In this paper, an adaptive backstepping control problem is proposed for a class of multiple-input-multiple-output nonlinear non-affine uncertain systems. An output recurrent wavelet neural network (ORWNN) is used to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions to develop the proposed adaptive backstepping controller. The proposed ORWNN combines the advantages of wavelet-based neural network, fuzzy neural network, and output feedback layer to achieve higher approximation accuracy and faster convergence. According to the estimation of ORWNN, the control scheme is designed by backstepping approach such that the system outputs follow the desired trajectories. Based on the Lyapunov approach, our approach guarantees that the system outputs converge to a small neighborhood of the references signals, that is, all signals of the closed-loop system are semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded. Finally, simulation results including double pendulums system and two inverted pendulums on carts system are shown to demonstrate the performance and effectiveness of our approach.     

Direct adaptive controller for nonaffine nonlinear systems using self-structuring neural networks

A direct adaptive state-feedback controller is proposed for highly nonlinear systems. We consider uncertain or ill-defined nonaffine nonlinear systems and employ a neural network (NN) with flexible structure, i.e., an online variation of the number of neurons. The NN approximates and adaptively cancels an unknown plant nonlinearity. A control law and adaptive laws for the weights in the hidden layer and output layer of the NN are established so that the whole closed-loop system is stable in the sense of Lyapunov. Moreover, the tracking error is guaranteed to be uniformly asymptotically stable (UAS) rather than uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB) with the aid of an additional robustifying control term. The proposed control algorithm is relatively simple and requires no restrictive conditions on the design constants for the stability. The efficiency of the proposed scheme is shown through the simulation of a simple nonaffine nonlinear system.

In this paper, a direct adaptive neural network control algorithm based on the backstepping technique is proposed for a class of uncertain nonlinear discrete-time systems in the strict-feedback form. The neural networks are utilized to approximate unknown functions, and a stable adaptive neural network controller is synthesized. The fact that all the signals in the closed-loop system are semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded is proven and the tracking error can converge to a small neighborhood of zero by choosing the design parameters appropriately. Compared with the previous research for discrete-time systems, the proposed algorithm improves the robustness of the systems. A simulation example is employed to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.     

Adaptive neural network tracking control for a class of non-linear systems

This article extends the application of the adaptive neural network control to a new class of uncertain MIMO non-linear systems, which are composed of interconnected subsystems where each interconnected subsystem is in the non-affine pure-feedback form. Because both the variables which are used as virtual controllers and the actual controllers appear non-linearly in unknown functions of the MIMO systems, thus, this class of systems is difficult to control. The radial basis function neural networks are utilised to approximate the desired virtual controllers and the desired actual controllers which are obtained by using implicit function theorem. The salient property of the proposed approach is that the number of the adjustable parameters is less than the numerous alternative approaches existing in the literature. It is proven that, under appropriate assumptions, all the signals in the closed-loop system are uniformly bounded and the tracking errors converge to a small neighbourhood of the origin by appropriately choosing design parameters. The feasibility of the developed approach is verified by two simulation examples.

Approximation-based adaptive tracking control of nonlinear pure-feedback systems with time-varying output constraints

An adaptive neural network control problem of completely non-affine pure-feedback systems with a time-varying output constraint and external disturbances is investigated. For the controller design, we presents an appropriate Barrier Lyapunov Function (BLF) considering both the time-varying output constraint and the control direction nonlinearities induced from the implicit function theorem and mean value theorem. From an error transformation, the BLF dependent on the time-varying constraint is transformed into the explicitly time-independent BLF. Based on the explicitly time-independent BLF, an adaptive dynamic surface control scheme using the function approximation technique is designed to ensure both the constraint satisfaction and the desired tracking ability. It is shown that all signals in the closed-loop system are semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded and the tracking error converges to an adjustable neighborhood of the origin while the time-varying output constraint is never violated.

With the aid of the backstepping method, novel adaptive neural network tracking controllers are developed, which can guarantee all the signals in the closed‐loop system are semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded, and the system output can track the desired signal with a small tracking error. In the end, a simulation example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Adaptive neural tracking control of a class of MIMO pure-feedback time-delay nonlinear systems with input saturation

Considering interconnections among subsystems, we propose an adaptive neural tracking control scheme for a class of multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) non-affine pure-feedback time-delay nonlinear systems with input saturation. Neural networks (NNs) are employed to approximate unknown functions in the design procedure, and the separation technology is introduced here to tackle the problem induced from unknown time-delay items. The adaptive neural tracking control scheme is constructed by combining Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals, NNs, the auxiliary system, the implicit function theory and the mean value theorem along with the dynamic surface control technique. Also, it is proven that the strategy guarantees tracking errors converge to a small neighbourhood around the origin by appropriate choice of design parameters and all signals in the closed-loop system uniformly ultimately bounded. Numerical simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.     

Robust adaptive control for a class of uncertain non-affine nonlinear systems using affine-type neural networks

A robust adaptive control is proposed for a class of single-input single-output non-affine nonlinear systems. In order to approximate the unknown nonlinear function, a novel affine-type neural network is used, and then to compensate the approximation error and external disturbance a robust control term is employed. By Lyapunov stability analysis for the closed-loop system, it is proved that tracking errors asymptotically converge to zero. Moreover, an observer is designed to estimate the system states because all the states may not be available for measurements. Furthermore, the adaptation laws of neural networks and the robust controller are given out based on the Lyapunov stability theory. Finally, two simulation examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

Adaptive Neural Network-Based Control for a Class of Nonlinear Pure-Feedback Systems With Time-Varying Full State Constraints

In this paper, an adaptive neural network (NN) control approach is proposed for nonlinear pure-feedback systems with time-varying full state constraints. The pure-feedback systems of this paper are assumed to possess nonlinear function uncertainties. By using the mean value theorem, pure-feedback systems can be transformed into strict feedback forms. For the newly generated systems, NNs are employed to approximate unknown items. Based on the adaptive control scheme and backstepping algorithm, an intelligent controller is designed. At the same time, time-varying Barrier Lyapunov functions (BLFs) with error variables are adopted to avoid violating full state constraints in every step of the backstepping design. All closedloop signals are uniformly ultimately bounded and the output tracking error converges to the neighborhood of zero, which can be verified by using the Lyapunov stability theorem. Two simulation examples reveal the performance of the adaptive NN control approach.      

Predefined-time control for Euler–Lagrange systems with model uncertainties and actuator faults

A novel adaptive predefined-time tracking control algorithm is proposed for the Euler–Lagrange systems (ELSs) with model uncertainties and actuator faults. Compared with traditional finite-time and fixed-time studies, the system output tracking error under the proposed predefined-time controller converges to a small neighborhood of zero in finite time, whose upper bound is exactly a design parameter in the control algorithm. For the uncertain model, radial-based function neural network (RBFNN) is utilized to approximate the continuous uncertain dynamics. To deal with the actuator faults, an adaptive control law is involved in the fault-tolerant controller. In order to achieve the predefined-time bounded, a novel predefined-time sliding mode surface is designed. It is proved that the tracking error vector trajectory of closed-loop system is semi-globally uniformly ultimately predefined-time bounded, and the upper bounds of both the system settling time and the corresponding output tracking error can be adjusted with a simple parameter. Simulation examples finally demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.
