Abstract

This paper presents a new neural network-based approach for self-tuning control of nonlinear MIMO dynamic systems. According to the approach, a neural network ARMAX (NN-ARMAX) model of the system is identified and continuously updated, using an online training algorithm. Control design is accomplished by solving an optimal discrete-time linear quadratic tracking problem using an observable block companion form Kalman innovation model, which is built from the parameters of a local linear version of the NN-ARMAX model. The state-feedback control law is implemented using the Kalman estimated state, which is calculated without estimating the noise covariance properties. The effectiveness of the proposed control approach is illustrated using a simulation example.
