Adaptive Neural Tracking Control for Discrete-Time Switched Nonlinear Systems with Dead Zone Inputs

Abstract EN

In this paper, the adaptive neural controllers of subsystems are proposed for a class of discrete-time switched nonlinear systems with dead zone inputs under arbitrary switching signals.

Due to the complicated framework of the discrete-time switched nonlinear systems and the existence of the dead zone, it brings about difficulties for controlling such a class of systems.

In addition, the radial basis function neural networks are employed to approximate the unknown terms of each subsystem.

Switched update laws are designed while the parameter estimation is invariable until its corresponding subsystem is active.

Then, the closed-loop system is stable and all the signals are bounded.

Finally, to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, an example is employed.
