MTN output feedback tracking control for MIMO discrete-time uncertain nonlinear systems.

An adaptive controller is developed that is based on the multidimensional Taylor network (MTN). This controller is used for multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) uncertain discrete-time nonlinear systems. This newly developed MTN is dissimilar with the neural network, in which only multiplication and addition are needed for this controller. Thus, real-time control is more easily to be achieved. The theoretical analysis shows that the output errors of the system are convergent and the output signals are semi-globally, uniformly and ultimately bounded. To illustrate the validity of MTN-based adaptive controller (MTNAC), a numerical example is given. The simulation data demonstrate that this MNTAC has better real-time performance and higher robustness compared with neural networks.
