Adaptive tracking controller using BP neural networks for a class of nonlinear systems

摘要

An BP neural-network-based adaptive control (NNAC) design method is described whose aim is to control a class of partially unknown nonlinear systems. Making use of the online identification of BP neural networks, the results of the identification could be used into the parameters of the controller. Not only the strong robustness with respect to uncertain dynamics and nonlinearities can be obtained, but also the output tracking error between the plant output and the desired reference output can asymptotically converge to zero by Lyapunov theory in the process of this design method. And a simulation example is also presented to evaluate the effectiveness of the design.
