In this paper, an adaptive robust neural network controller (ARNNC) is synthesized for a single-rod pneumatic actuator to achieve high tracking accuracy without knowing the bounds of the parameters and disturbances. The ARNNC control framework integrates adaptive control, robust control, and neural network control intelligently. Adaptive control improves the precision of dynamic compensation with parametric estimation, and robust control attenuates the effect of unmodeled dynamics and unknown disturbances. In reality, the unmodeled dynamics of the complicated pneumatic systems and unpredictable disturbances in working conditions affect the tracking precision. However, these cannot be expressed as an exact formula. Therefore, the real-time learning radial basis function (RBF) neural network component is considered for better compensation of unmodeled dynamics, random disturbances, and estimation errors of the adaptive control. Although the bounds of the parameters and disturbances for the pneumatic systems are unknown, the prescribed transient performance and final tracking accuracy of the proposed method can be still achieved with fictitious bounds. Asymptotic tracking performance can be acquired under the provided circumstance. The comparative experiments with a pneumatic cylinder driven by proportional direction valve illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed ARNNC as shown by a high tracking accuracy is achieved.

Proportional Integral

Vernier-gimballing magnetically suspended flywheel is often used for attitude control and interference suppression of spacecrafts. Due to the special structure of the conical magnetic bearing, the radial component generated by the axial magnetic force and the change of the magnetic air gap will cause the nonlinearity of stiffness and disturbance. That will lead to not only poor stability of the suspension control system but also unsatisfactory tracking accuracy of the rotor position. To solve the nonlinear problem of the system, this article proposes a proportional–integral–derivative neural network control scheme. First, the rotor model considering the nonlinear variation of disturbance and stiffness parameters is established. Then, the weight of neural network is adjusted by the gradient descent method online to ensure the accurate output of magnetic force. Finally, the convergence analysis is carried out based on the Lyapunov stability theory. Compared with the general proportional–integral–derivative control and the radial basis function neural network control, the simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method has the highest tracking accuracy and excellent performance in improving stability. The experimental results prove the correctness of the theoretical analysis and the validity of the proposed method.

Autonomous Driving System

Intelligent vehicle is an attractive solution to the traffic problems caused by automobiles. An experimental autonomous driving system based on a slot car set is designed and realized in the paper. With the application of a wireless camera equipped on the slot car, the track information is acquired and sent to the controlling computer. A backpropogation (BP) neural network controller is built to imitate the way of player’s thinking. After being trained, the neural network controller can give the proper voltage instructions to the direct current (DC) motor of the slot car according to different track conditions. Test results prove that the development of the autonomous driving system is successful.

Highly Nonlinear

Neural networks (NNs), which have excellent ability of self-learning and parameter adjusting, has been widely applied to solve highly nonlinear control problems in industrial processes. This paper presents a reference-model-based neural network control method for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) temperature system. In order to improve the learning efficiency of the NN control, a reference model is introduced to provide the teaching signal for the NN controller. The control inputs for the MIMO system are given by the sum of the output of the conventional integral-proportional-derivative (I-PD) controller and the outputs of the neural network controller. The proposed NN control method can not only improve the transient response of the system, but can also realize temperature uniformity in MIMO temperature systems. To verify the proposed method, simulations are carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment and experiments are carried out on the DSP (Digital Signal Processor)-based experimental platform, respectively. Both results are quantitatively compared to those obtained from the conventional I-PD control systems. The effectiveness of the proposed method has been successfully verified.

Helicopter Aerodynamics

A neural network control method for heading control of miniature unmanned helicopter is proposed. For the complexity of miniature helicopter aerodynamics, it is difficult to identify the unknown parameters of yaw dynamics model. To design heading controller of miniature helicopter without modelling yaw dynamics, BP neural network is designed as heading controller, which is trained by collected flight data. By training, the neural network controller can learn the artificial operation strategy and realize the heading control of miniature unmanned helicopter. Simulation results demonstrate the validity of the proposed neural network control method.

Comparison Of The Results

A direct adaptive neural network controller is developed for a model of an underwater vehicle. A radial basis neural network and a multilayer neural network are used in the closed-loop to approximate the nonlinear vehicle dynamics. No prior off-line training phase and no explicit knowledge of the structure of the plant are required, and this scheme exploits the advantages of both neural network control and adaptive control. A control law and a stable on-line adaptive law are derived using the Lyapunov theory, and the convergence of the tracking error to zero and the boundedness of signals are guaranteed. A comparison of the results with different neural network architecture is made, and the performance of the controller is demonstrated by computer simulations.

Further, this paper focuses on the neural network control algorithm for DSTATCOM and surveys its area of improvements. Various architectures of Neural Network such as Adaline/Widrow-Hoff, perceptron, Back-propagation (BP), Hopfield, and Radial Basis Function (RBF) that has been reviewed in this paper. It is found that many researches on theoretical works and single phase system are widely performed, whereas its application on distribution network for three phase system is hardly found. Even so much improvement that have been done by researchers theoretically to improve the drawbacks of Neural Network controller; there are still wide gaps for verification through experimental implementation and industrial applications.
