Quantized-state-based decentralized neural network control of a class of uncertain interconnected nonlinear systems with input and interaction time delays

초록

This paper presents a quantized-state-based decentralized control strategy for uncertain interconnected nonlinear systems with time-varying delays under a networked control environment. Full state variables quantized via a uniform-hysteretic quantizer are available only for a decentralized adaptive control design. Unlike the existing decentralized adaptive recursive control designs, this study is focused on establishing a quantized-state-based decentralized learning mechanism for neural networks using discontinuously quantized states. Moreover, the stability of a decentralized neural network tracking system in the presence of time delays is analyzed. For each subsystem, a neural-network-based local adaptive tracker using a delay compensator is designed based on the local quantized state feedback. Technical lemmas pertaining to quantization errors and adaptive laws are presented to ensure the boundedness of all closed-loop signals and the convergence of local tracking errors to an adjustable neighborhood of the origin. Finally, illustrative simulations clarify and verify the decentralization strategy of the developed state-quantized adaptive tracking system. The control performance is evaluated using the root mean square control errors, where the values are 0.0293 and 0.0134 for each subsystem in Example 1 and 0.0467 and 0.0384 for each subsystem in Example 2. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd
