Realization of a Data-based Adaptive Networked Tracking Control in NetCon System

It is very difficult to realize the networked tracking control of a controlled process with unclear mechanism. An adaptive networked tracking control method that we proposed can solve such a problem. The method is a data-based control scheme started from the input-output data of the controlled process. We have realized it in the NetCon system. Firstly, the T-S fuzzy model of the controlled object is established according to input-output data by using fuzzy cluster modeling technology. Then the fuzzy prediction model is obtained by transforming it into the fuzzy singleton model through equivalent transformation. A series of control actions are derived by inverting the fuzzy singleton model according to the reversibility condition. These predicted values can compensate the data dropout and time delay in the network communication channels. The influence of external disturbance and uncertainty on system performance is eliminated by using internal model structure and adaptive control method. Finally, experiment results in NetCon system show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
