Hybrid control using recurrent fuzzy neural network for linearinduction motor servo drive

A hybrid control system using a recurrent fuzzy neural network (RFNN) is proposed to control a linear induction motor (LIM) servo drive. First, feedback linearization theory is used to decouple the thrust force and the flux amplitude of the LIM. Then, a hybrid control system is proposed to control the mover of the LIM for periodic motion. In the hybrid control system, the RFNN controller is the main tracking controller, which is used to mimic a perfect control law, and the compensated controller is proposed to compensate the difference between the perfect control law and the RFNN controller. Moreover, an online parameter training methodology, which is derived using the Lyapunov stability theorem and the gradient descent method is proposed to increase the learning capability of the RFNN. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is verified by both the simulated and experimental results. Furthermore, the advantages of the proposed control system are indicated in comparison with the sliding mode control system

Supervisory recurrent fuzzy neural network control of wing rock for slender delta wings

Wing rock is a highly nonlinear phenomenon in which an aircraft undergoes limit cycle roll oscillations at high angles of attack. In this paper, a supervisory recurrent fuzzy neural network control (SRFNNC) system is developed to control the wing rock system. This SRFNNC system is comprised of a recurrent fuzzy neural network (RFNN) controller and a supervisory controller. The RFNN controller is investigated to mimic an ideal controller and the supervisory controller is designed to compensate for the approximation error between the RFNN controller and the ideal controller. The RFNN is inherently a recurrent multilayered neural network for realizing fuzzy inference using dynamic fuzzy rules. Moreover, an on-line parameter training methodology, using the gradient descent method and the Lyapunov stability theorem, is proposed to increase the learning capability. Finally, a comparison between the sliding-mode control, the fuzzy sliding control and the proposed SRFNNC of a wing rock system is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the SRFNNC system. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed design method can achieve favorable control performance for the wing rock system without the knowledge of system dynamic functions.     

Adaptive fuzzy-neural-network control for a DSP-based permanent magnet linear synchronous motor servo drive

An adaptive fuzzy neural network (AFNN) control system is proposed to control the position of the mover of a field-oriented control permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) servo-drive system to track periodic reference trajectories in this paper. In the proposed AFNN control system, an FNN with accurate approximation capability is employed to approximate the unknown dynamics of the PMLSM, and a robust compensator is proposed to confront the inevitable approximation errors due to finite number of membership functions and disturbances including the friction force. The adaptive learning algorithm that can learn the parameters of the FNN on line is derived using Lyapunov stability theorem. Moreover, to relax the requirement for the value of lumped uncertainty in the robust compensator, which comprises a minimum approximation error, optimal parameter vectors, higher order terms in Taylor series and friction force, an adaptive lumped uncertainty estimation law is investigated. Furthermore, all the control algorithms are implemented in a TMS320C32 DSP-based control computer. The simulated and experimental results due to periodic reference trajectories show that the dynamic behaviors of the proposed control systems are robust with regard to uncertainties.     

Investigations on the Hybrid Tracking Control of an Underactuated Autonomous Underwater Robot

The problem of trajectory tracking control of an underactuated autonomous underwater robot (AUR) in a three-dimensional (3-D) space is investigated in this paper. The control of an underactuated robot is different from fully actuated robots in many aspects. In particular, these robot systems do not satisfy Brockett's necessary condition for feedback stabilization and no continuous time-invariant state feedback control law exists that makes a specified equilibrium of the closed-loop system asymptotically stable. The uncertainty of hydrodynamic parameters, along with the coupled, nonlinear dynamics of the underwater robot, also makes the navigation and tracking control a difficult task. The proposed hybrid control law is developed by combining sliding mode control (SMC) and classical proportional–integral–derivative (PID) control methods to reduce the tracking errors arising out of disturbances, as well as variations in vehicle parameters like buoyancy. Here, a trajectory planner computes the body-fixed linear and angular velocities, as well as vehicle orientations corresponding to a given 3-D inertial trajectory, which yields a feasible 6-d.o.f. trajectory. This trajectory is used to compute the control signals for the three available controllable inputs by the hybrid controller. A supervisory controller is used to switch between the SMC and PID control as per a predefined switching law. The switching function parameters are optimized using Taguchi design techniques. The effectiveness and performance of the proposed controller is investigated by comparing numerically with classical SMC and traditional linear control systems in the presence of disturbances. Numerical simulations using the full set of nonlinear equations of motion show that the controller does quite well in dealing with the plant nonlinearity and parameter uncertainties for trajectory tracking. The proposed controller response shows less tracking error without the usually present control chattering. Some practical features of this control law are also discussed.     

Hybrid control for speed sensorless induction motor drive

The dynamic response of a hybrid-controlled speed sensorless induction motor (IM) drive is introduced. First, an adaptive observation system, which comprises speed and flux observers, is derived on the basis of model reference adaptive system (MRAS) theory. The speed observation system is implemented using a digital signal processor (DSP) with a high sampling rate to make it possible to achieve good dynamics. Next, based on the principle of computed torque control, a computed torque controller using the estimated speed signal is developed. Moreover, to relax the requirement of the lumped uncertainty in the design of a computed torque controller, a recurrent fuzzy neural network (RFNN) uncertainty observer is utilized to adapt the lumped uncertainty online. Furthermore, based on Lyapunov stability a hybrid control system, which combines the computed torque controller, the RFNN uncertainty observer and a compensated controller, is proposed to control the rotor speed of the sensorless IM drive. The computed torque controller with RFNN uncertainty observer is the main tracking controller and the compensated controller is designed to compensate the minimum approximation error of the uncertainty observer instead of increasing the rules of the RFNN. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed observation and control systems is verified by simulated and experimental results     

Adaptive hybrid intelligent control for uncertain nonlinear dynamical systems

A new hybrid direct/indirect adaptive fuzzy neural network (FNN) controller with a state observer and supervisory controller for a class of uncertain nonlinear dynamic systems is developed in this paper. The hybrid adaptive FNN controller, the free parameters of which can be tuned on-line by an observer-based output feedback control law and adaptive law, is a combination of direct and indirect adaptive FNN controllers. A weighting factor, which can be adjusted by the tradeoff between plant knowledge and control knowledge, is adopted to sum together the control efforts from indirect adaptive FNN controller and direct adaptive FNN controller. Furthermore, a supervisory controller is appended into the FNN controller to force the state to be within the constraint set. Therefore, if the FNN controller cannot maintain the stability, the supervisory controller starts working to guarantee stability. On the other hand, if the FNN controller works well, the supervisory controller will be deactivated. The overall adaptive scheme guarantees the global stability of the resulting closed-loop system in the sense that all signals involved are uniformly bounded. Two nonlinear systems, namely, inverted pendulum system and Chua's (1989) chaotic circuit, are fully illustrated to track sinusoidal signals. The resulting hybrid direct/indirect FNN control systems show better performances, i.e., tracking error and control effort can be made smaller and it is more flexible during the design process.

Robust fuzzy neural network control for linear ceramic motor drivevia backstepping design technique

This study presents a robust fuzzy-neural-network (RFNN) control system for a linear ceramic motor (LCM) that is driven by an unipolar switching full-bridge voltage source inverter using LC resonant technique. The structure and operating principle of the LCM are introduced. Since the dynamic characteristics and motor parameters of the LCM are nonlinear and time varying, a RFNN control system is designed based on the hypothetical dynamic model to achieve high-precision position control via the backstepping design technique. In the RFNN control system a fuzzy neural network (FNN) controller is used to learn an ideal feedback linearization control law, and a robust controller is designed to compensate the shortcoming of the FNN controller. All adaptive learning algorithms in the RFNN control system are derived from the sense of Lyapunov stability analysis, so that system-tracking stability can be guaranteed in the closed-loop system. The effectiveness of the proposed RFNN control system is verified by experimental results in the presence of uncertainties. In addition, the advantages of the proposed control system are indicated in comparison with the traditional integral-proportional (IP) position control system     

An Adaptive Controller Dominant-Type Hybrid Adaptive and Learning Controller for Trajectory Tracking of Robot Manipulators

This paper proposes a new hybrid adaptive and learning control method based on combining model-based adaptive control, repetitive learning control (RLC) and proportional–derivative control to consider the periodic trajectory tracking problem of robot manipulators. The aim of this study is to obtain a high-accuracy trajectory tracking controller by developing a simpler adaptive dominant-type hybrid controller by using only one vector for estimation of the unknown dynamical parameters in the control law. The RLC input is adopted using the original learning control law, adding a forgetting factor to achieve the convergence of the learning control input to zero. We will improve and prove that the adaptive dominant-type controller could be applied for tracking a periodic desired trajectory in which adaptive control input increases and becomes dominant of the control input, whereas the other control inputs decrease close to zero. The domination of the adaptive control input gives the advantage that the proposed controller could adjust the feed-forward control input immediately and it does not spend much time relearning the learning control input when the periodic desired trajectory is switched over from the first trajectory to another trajectory. We utilize the Lyapunovlike method to prove the stability of the proposed controller and computer simulation results to validate the effectiveness of the proposed controller in achieving the accurate tracking to the periodic desired trajectory.     

Self-adaptive interval type-2 neural fuzzy network control for PMLSM drives

This paper proposes a self-adaptive interval type-2 neural fuzzy network (SAIT2NFN) control system for the high-precision motion control of permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) drives. The antecedent parts in the SAIT2NFN use interval type-2 fuzzy sets to handle uncertainties in PMLSM drives, including payload variation, external disturbance, and sense noise. The SAIT2NFN is firstly trained to model the inverse dynamics of PMLSM through concurrent structure and parameter learning. The fuzzy rules in the SAIT2NFN can be generated automatically by using online clustering algorithm to obtain a suitable-sized network structure, and a back propagation is proposed to adjust all network parameters. Then, a robust SAIT2NFN inverse control system that consists of the SAIT2NFN and an error-feedback controller is proposed to control the PMLSM drive in a changing environment. Moreover, the Kalman filtering algorithm with a dead zone is derived using Lyapunov stability theorem for online fine-tuning all network parameters to guarantee the convergence of the SAIT2NFN. Experimental results show that the proposed SAIT2NFN control system achieves the best tracking performance in comparison with type-1 NFN control systems.     

Development of a Novel Self‐Tuned Adaptive Supervisory Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller for Induction Motor Drive

This work presents a novel speed control scheme for an induction motor (IM) using an adaptive supervisory differential cerebellar model articulation controller (ASDCMAC). The ASDCMAC has a supervisory controller and an adaptive differential cerebellar model articulation controller (ADCMAC), and the ASDCMAC is utilized as the speed controller. The supervisory controller monitors the control process to keep speed tracking error within a predefined range, and the ADCMAC learns and approximates system dynamics. The connective weights of ADCMAC are adjusted online, according to adaptive rules derived in Lyapunov stability theory, to ensure system stability. The robustness of the proposed ASDCMAC against parameter variations and external load torque disturbances is verified via simulations and experiments, respectively. Three control schemes, the ASDCMAC, fuzzy control, and PI control, are investigated experimentally, and a performance index, root mean square error (RMSE), is utilized for each scheme. The experimental results demonstrate that the ASDCMAC outperforms the two other control schemes with external load torque variations.

Hybrid adaptive fuzzy identification and control of nonlinearsystems

We present a combined direct and indirect adaptive control scheme for adjusting an adaptive fuzzy controller, and adaptive fuzzy identification model parameters. First, using adaptive fuzzy building blocks, with a common set of parameters, we design and study an adaptive controller and an adaptive identification model that have been proposed for a general class of uncertain structure nonlinear dynamic systems. We then propose a hybrid adaptive (HA) law for adjusting the parameters. The HA law utilizes two types of errors in the adaptive system, the tracking error and the modeling error. Performance analysis using a Lyapunov synthesis approach proves the superiority of the HA law over the direct adaptive (DA) method in terms of faster and improved tracking and parameter convergence. Furthermore, this is achieved at negligible increased implementation cost or computational complexity. We prove a theorem that shows the properties of this hybrid adaptive fuzzy control system, i.e., bounds for the integral of the squared errors, and the conditions under which these errors converge asymptotically to zero are obtained. Finally, we apply the hybrid adaptive fuzzy controller to control a chaotic system, and the inverted pendulum system
