Abstract

In this paper, a neural network based controller which optimizes a finite horizon quadratic cost function is developed for a class of nonlinear systems with unknown dynamics. The controller is applied to a cantilever plate. Two implementation methods are introduced. One utilizes a look-up table to obtain the control off-line. The other is a neural network controller. The open loop and close loop responses for both types of controllers are presented.
