Abstract:

For the first time, an adaptive backstepping neural network control approach is extended to a class of stochastic nonlinear output-feedback systems. Different from the existing results, the nonlinear terms are assumed to be completely unknown and only a neural network is employed to compensate for all unknown nonlinear functions so that the controller design is more simplified. Based on stochastic LaSalle theorem, the resulted closed-loop system is proved to be globally asymptotically stable in probability. The simulation results further verify the effectiveness of the control scheme.
