Abstract
The adaptive neural-network (NN) output-feedback control problem is investigated for a quarter-car active suspension system. The sprung mass and the suspension stiffness in the considered suspension system are unknown, and the part states are not measured directly. In the control design, NNs are employed to approximate the unknown nonlinear dynamics, and an NN state observer is given to estimate the immeasurable states. By using the adaptive backstepping control design technique and introducing the command filter method, an observer-based NN output-feedback control algorithm is developed, in which the input saturation constraint is compensated via constructing an auxiliary system. It is proved that all the variables of the controlled system are bounded, and the ride comfort, ride safety condition, and suspension space limit are guaranteed. The computer simulation and compared results further show the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.
