MLP-Based Neural Guaranteed Performance Control for MEMS Gyroscope With Logarithmic Quantizer

In this paper, a minimum-learning-parameter (MLP) based neural control method is proposed for micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) gyroscope with prescribed performance and input quantization. For the first time, a logarithmic quantizer (LQ) is employed to generate smooth input control signal for MEMS gyroscope, which greatly reduces the communication data size as well as actuator bandwidth. To improve the performance of MEMS gyroscope in the presence of quantization error, a prescribed performance control scheme consisting of preselected performance boundaries and an error transformation is utilized, such that preselected transient and steady-state properties can be assured. In contrast to the neural control strategies subject to the issue of learning explosion, a MLP-based neural network (NN) is introduced to estimate the unknown uncertainties using the norm of neural weight. To eliminate the effect of quantization error induced by LQ, a robust quantized control is designed to further ensure the closed-loop system suffering from discontinuous dynamics with prescribed ultimately uniformly bounded (UUB) performance. In the end, a series of simulations are presented to validate the superiority of the proposed control methodology.
