Incremental polynomial model-controller network: A self-organising nonlinear controller

Abstract

An 'incremental polynomial model-controller network' (IPMCN) is introduced. Smooth control switching is obtained from the use of odd polynomial controllers. The decomposition of the operating space, together with the construction of the network, is achieved on-line while controlling the system. The performance and robustness of this scheme are illustrated through various simulations. © IEE, 1999.
