Based on integral sliding mode and approximate dynamic programming (ADP) theory, a novel optimal guaranteed cost sliding mode control is designed for constrained-input nonlinear systems with matched and unmatched disturbances. When the system moves on the sliding surface, the optimal guaranteed cost control problem of sliding mode dynamics is transformed into the optimal control problem of a reformulated auxiliary system with a modified cost function. The ADP algorithm based on single critic neural network (NN) is applied to obtain the approximate optimal control law for the auxiliary system. Lyapunov techniques are used to demonstrate the convergence of the NN weight errors. In addition, the derived approximate optimal control is verified to guarantee the sliding mode dynamics system to be stable in the sense of uniform ultimate boundedness. Some simulation results are presented to verify the feasibility of the proposed control scheme.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
