Neural Network Based Adaptive Tracking Control for a Class of Pure Feedback Nonlinear Systems With Input Saturation

In this paper, an adaptive neural networks (NNs) tracking controller is proposed for a class of single-input/singleoutput (SISO) non-affine pure-feedback non-linear systems with input saturation. In the proposed approach, the original input saturated nonlinear system is augmented by a low pass filter. Then, new system states are introduced to implement states transformation of the augmented model. The resulting new model in affine Brunovsky form permits direct and simpler controller design by avoiding back-stepping technique and its complexity growing as done in existing methods in the literature. In controller design of the proposed approach, a state observer, based on the strictly positive real (SPR) theory, is introduced and designed to estimate the new system states, and only two neural networks are used to approximate the uncertain nonlinearities and compensate for the saturation nonlinearity of actuator. The proposed approach can not only provide a simple and effective way for construction of the controller in adaptive neural networks control of non-affine systems with input saturation, but also guarantee the tracking performance and the boundedness of all the signals in the closed-loop system. The stability of the control system is investigated by using the Lyapunov theory. Simulation examples are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

Neural-Network-Based Control for Discrete-Time Nonlinear Systems with Input Saturation Under Stochastic Communication Protocol

In this paper,an adaptive dynamic programming(ADP)strategy is investigated for discrete-time nonlinear systems with unknown nonlinear dynamics subject to input saturation.To save the communication resources between the controller and the actuators,stochastic communication protocols(SCPs)are adopted to schedule the control signal,and therefore the closed-loop system is essentially a protocol-induced switching system.A neural network(NN)-based identifier with a robust term is exploited for approximating the unknown nonlinear system,and a set of switch-based updating rules with an additional tunable parameter of NN weights are developed with the help of the gradient descent.By virtue of a novel Lyapunov function,a sufficient condition is proposed to achieve the stability of both system identification errors and the update dynamics of NN weights.Then,a value iterative ADP algorithm in an offline way is proposed to solve the optimal control of protocol-induced switching systems with saturation constraints,and the convergence is profoundly discussed in light of mathematical induction.Furthermore,an actor-critic NN scheme is developed to approximate the control law and the proposed performance index function in the framework of ADP,and the stability of the closed-loop system is analyzed in view of the Lyapunov theory.Finally,the numerical simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.     

Adaptive Tracking Control for Nonlinear Systems with a Class of Input Nonlinearities

An adaptive tracking control approach is presented for nonlinear systems with a class of input nonlinearities. A generalized model has been developed for a class of non‐smooth nonlinearities that include dead‐zone, backlash and ‘backlash‐like’ hysteresis. By using the developed model and Nussbaum‐gain technique, the problem of input nonlinearity is solved perfectly. The proposed method is available even when the designer is uncertain about the type of input nonlinearities mentioned above, and the knowledge on the bounds of these nonlinearity parameters is not required. Furthermore, it is proved that all closed‐loop signals are bounded and the tracking error converges to a small residual set asymptotically. Two simulation examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Neural-Network-Based Near-Optimal Control for a Class of Discrete-Time Affine Nonlinear Systems With Control Constraints

In this paper, the near-optimal control problem for a class of nonlinear discrete-time systems with control constraints is solved by iterative adaptive dynamic programming algorithm. First, a novel nonquadratic performance functional is introduced to overcome the control constraints, and then an iterative adaptive dynamic programming algorithm is developed to solve the optimal feedback control problem of the original constrained system with convergence analysis. In the present control scheme, there are three neural networks used as parametric structures for facilitating the implementation of the iterative algorithm. Two examples are given to demonstrate the convergence and feasibility of the proposed optimal control scheme.

Optimal Fixed-Point Tracking Control for Discrete-Time Nonlinear Systems via ADP

Based on adaptive dynamic programming (ADP), the fixed-point tracking control problem is solved by a value iteration (Ⅵ) algorithm. First, a class of discrete-time (DT) nonlinear system with disturbance is considered. Second, the convergence of a Ⅵ algorithm is given. It is proven that the iterative cost function precisely converges to the optimal value, and the control input and disturbance input also converges to the optimal values. Third, a novel analysis pertaining to the range of the discount factor is presented, where the cost function serves as a Lyapunov function. Finally, neural networks (NNs) are employed to approximate the cost function, the control law, and the disturbance law. Simulation examples are given to illustrate the effective performance of the proposed method.

Self-triggered Consensus Control for Linear Multi-agent Systems With Input Saturation

In this paper, we study the consensus problem for a class of linear multi-agent systems (MASs) with consideration of input saturation under the self-triggered mechanism. In the context of discrete-time systems, a self-triggered strategy is developed to determine the time interval between the adjacent triggers. The triggering condition is designed by using the current sampled consensus error. Furthermore, the consensus control protocol is designed by means of a state feedback approach. It is shown that the considered multi-agent systems can reach consensus with the presented algorithm. Some sufficient conditions are proposed in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) to show the positively invariant property of the domain of attraction (DOA). Moreover, some sufficient conditions of controller synthesis are provided to enlarge the volume of the DOA and obtain the control gain matrix. A numerical example is simulated to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis results.
