Distributed Control Problem

A new approach to solving the distributed control problem for a class of discrete-time nonlinear systems via a wireless neural control network (WNCN) is presented in this paper. A unified Lurie-type model termed delayed standard neural network model (DSNNM) is used to describe these nonlinear systems. We assume that all neuron nodes in WNCN which have limited energy, storage space, and computing ability can be regarded as a subcontroller, then the whole WNCN is characterized by a mesh-like structure with partially connected neurons distributed over a wide geographical area, which can be considered as a fully distributed nonlinear output feedback dynamic controller. The unreliable wireless communication links within WNCN are modeled by fading channels. Based on the Lyapunov functional and the S-procedure, the WNCN is solved and configured for the DSNNM to absolutely stabilize the whole closed-loop system in the sense of mean square with aH∞disturbance attenuation index using LMI approach. A numerical example shows the effectiveness of the proposed design approaches.

Strict Feedback

We present a systematic procedure for designing H∞-optimal adaptive controllers for a class of single-input single-output parametric strict-feedback nonlinear systems that are in the output-feedback form. The uncertain nonlinear system is minimum phase with a known relative degree and known sign of the high-frequency gain. We use soft projection on the parameter estimates to keep them bounded in the absence of persistent excitations. The objective is to obtain disturbance attenuating output-feedback controllers which will track a smooth bounded trajectory and keep all closed-loop signals bounded in the presence of exogenous disturbances. Two recent papers (Pan and Bas¸ar, 1996a; Marino and Tomei, 1995) addressed a similar problem with full state information, using two different approaches, and obtained asymptotically tracking and disturbance-attenuating adaptive controllers. Here, we extend these results to the output measurement case for a class of minimum phase nonlinear systems where the nonlinearities depend only on the measured output. It is shown that arbitrarily small disturbance attenuation levels can be obtained at the expense of increased control effort. The backstepping methodology, cost-to-come function based H∞ -filtering and singular perturbations analysis constitute the framework of our robust adaptive control design scheme.
