Neural-Fuzzy Digital Strategy of Continuous-Time Nonlinear Systems Using Adaptive Prediction and Random-Local-Optimization Design

Abstract EN

A tracking problem, time-delay, uncertainty and stability analysis of a predictive control system are considered.

The predictive control design is based on the input and output of neural plant model (NPM), and a recursive fuzzy predictive tracker has scaling factors which limit the value zone of measured data and cause the tuned parameters to converge to obtain a robust control performance.

To improve the further control performance, the proposed random-local-optimization design (RLO) for a model/controller uses offline initialization to obtain a near global optimal model/controller.

Other issues are the considerations of modeling error, input-delay, sampling distortion, cost, greater flexibility, and highly reliable digital products of the model-based controller for the continuous-time (CT) nonlinear system.

They are solved by a recommended two-stage control design with the first-stage (offline) RLO and second-stage (online) adaptive steps.

A theorizing method is then put forward to replace the sensitivity calculation, which reduces the calculation of Jacobin matrices of the back-propagation (BP) method.

Finally, the feedforward input of reference signals helps the digital fuzzy controller improve the control performance, and the technique works to control the CT systems precisely.
