Robust adaptive neural control of uncertain pure-feedback nonlinear systems

摘要

In this paper, a robust adaptive neural control design approach is presented for a class of uncertain pure-feedback nonlinear systems. To reduce the complexity of the both controller structure and computation, only one neural network is used to approximate the lumped unknown function of the system at the last step of the recursive design process. By this approach, the complexity growing problem existing in conventional methods can be eliminated completely. Stability analysis shows that all the closed-loop system signals are uniformly ultimately bounded, and the steady state tracking error can be made arbitrarily small by appropriately choosing control parameters. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and merits of the proposed approach.
