Abstract

In this paper, we describe the algorithm which controls an unknown nonlinear system with disturbance a using multilayer neural network. The multilayer neural network can be used to approximate any continuous function to any desired degree of accuracy. With the former fact, we approximate an unknown nonlinear system by using of multilayer neural netowrk. WE include a disturbance among the modelling error, and the weight-update rule of multilayer neural network is derived to satisfy Laypunov stability. The whole control system constitutes controller using the feedback linearization method. The weight of neural network which is used to implement nonlinear function is updated by the derived update-rule. The proposed control algorithm is verified through computer simulation.
