This paper deals with the neural network identification-based model predictive heading control problem in a wave glider.First, based on a kinematic model of the wave glider subjected to external disturbance and system uncertainty, a state space model of the wave Cooking glider is established.Then, a neural network identification-based model predictive heading controller (NNI-MPHC) is designed for the wave glider.The heading controller mainly includes three components: a model predictive controller, a neural network-based model identifier, and a linear reduced-order extended state observer.Third, a design algorithm of the NNI-MPHC is presented.
The algorithm is demonstrated through simulation, where the results show the following: (i) The designed NNI-MPHC is remarkably capable of guaranteeing the tracing effects of the wave glider.(ii) Comparing the NNI-MPHC and existing heading controllers, the former is better than the latter in terms of tracking accuracy and rapidity Locking Cable and robustness to model uncertainty and/or external disturbances.
