Abstract

This paper presents a Neural-fuzzy model structure to improve the disturbance attenuation performance of a gimballed Line of Sight (LOS) stabilization system. Initially, a Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) based on prior qualitative information about system dynamics and linguistic performance criteria is developed. Next, proposed Neural-fuzzy model architecture is constructed, which overcome the difficulties and limitations of each isolated methodology. The Neural-fuzzy architecture is developed based on input-output data-sets available from FLC. Fuzzy curve approach is used to determine significant inputs, number of rules, initialization of connecting layers weights, and hence the model structure. Both the controller configurations are tested based on critical performance characteristics such as stability of the loop, responsiveness of the loop and insensitivity to disturbances. Finally, the comparative analysis suggests that the proposed Neural-fuzzy controller completely outperforms the FLC configuration and hence, can be very effective for more precise pointing applications.
