Neural network adaptive state feedback control of a magnetic levitation system
Magnetic levitation system is a typical nonlinear and instable system. Based on the complexity and inaccuracy of modelling, in this paper identified magnetic levitation system using the speciality that neural network(NN) can approach any nonlinear function. A Radial Basis Function neural network (RBFNN) controller is designed based on the neural network adaptive control principle. This paper proposes a control method which combine neural network adaptive control method and state feedback control method based on RBFNN. A simulation of the system is proposed, and the result shows that RBFNN could approach magnetic levitation system very well, neural network adaptive state feedback controller has a good effect on this nonlinear system; this control system has a preferable stability and control property.
