Abstract

In this study, a novel Multivariable Adaptive Neural Network Controller (MANNC) is developed for coupled model-free n-input n-output systems. The learning algorithm of the proposed controller does not rely on the model of a system and uses only the history of the system inputs and outputs. The system is considered as a ‘black box’ with no pre-knowledge of its internal structure. By online monitoring and possessing the system inputs and outputs, the parameters of the controller are adjusted. Using the accumulated gradient of the system error along with the Lyapunov stability analysis, the weights’ adjustment convergence of the controller can be observed, and an optimal training number of the controller can be selected. The Lyapunov stability of the system is checked during the entire weight training process to enable the controller to handle any possible nonlinearities of the system. The effectiveness of the MANNC in controlling nonlinear square multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems is demonstrated via three simulation studies covering the cases of a time-invariant nonlinear MIMO system, a time-variant nonlinear MIMO system, and a hybrid MIMO system, respectively. In each case, the performance of the MANNC is compared with that of a properly selected existing counterpart. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed MANNC is capable of controlling various types of square MIMO systems with much improved performance over its existing counterpart. The unique properties of the MANNC will make it a suitable candidate for many industrial applications.
