Abstract

The study proposes a new simple output feedback adaptive tracking control scheme using neural network for a class of complicated modern agricultural mechanical systems that only the system output variables can be measured. The scheme avoids design state observer and Lipschiz assumption, SPR conditions are not required and few parameters in control laws and weights update laws need to be tuned. Only one RBF neural network is employed to approximate the lumped uncertain nonlinear function. The stability analysis of the closed-loop system is performing using a Lyapunov approach which shows that the output tracking error and all states in the closed-loop system are boundedness. The effectiveness of the proposed adaptive control scheme is demonstrated through the simulations.
