Abstract
In this paper, we propose an output-based tracking control scheme for a class of continuous-time nonlinear systems via the adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) technique. A neural networks (NNs) observer is constructed to reconstruct immeasurable information of the nonlinear systems, and, by introducing a new state vector and appropriate coordinate transformation, tracking control issues are converted into optimal regulation problems where critic-actor neural networks structures are developed for the solution of Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) equation corresponding to tracking errors. In addition, a robust term is introduced to eliminate effects from approximation errors. It is proven that all signals in the closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB) by the Lyapunov approach. Finally, simulation examples are provided for illustration of the theoretical claims.
