Controle com adaptação em modo dual utilizando uma rede RBF

This work presents a control strategy using a network with radial basis function (RBF network) with adaptation in dual mode. The objective of the strategy is to use the approximate capacity of the RBF network to control nonlinear systems with unknown parameters or with uncertainties. The proposed control uses the structure of Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC) and a RBF network whose param...
