Abstract
This article investigates the issue of data-based distributed optimal control for third-order heterogeneous vehicle platoon system (HVPS) with input saturation under switching topology. In the control design, the integral reinforcement learning (IRL) algorithm is used to learn the online solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation with unknown dynamics. Combining IRL algorithm and critic neural network (CNN), a distributed adaptive optimal control approach is designed based on dynamic event-triggered (DET) mechanism. By the aid of topology-dependent Lyapunov function and the average dwell time method, the developed optimal control method demonstrates that all the signals in the considered system are uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB), the closed-loop system can achieve Nash equilibrium and string stability can be ensured. In addition, Zeno behavior can also be avoided. Finally, to illustrate the effectiveness of the developed optimal control approach, a simulation example is given.
期刊介绍:
The proposed journal, called the IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering (TNSE), is committed to timely publishing of peer-reviewed technical articles that deal with the theory and applications of network science and the interconnections among the elements in a system that form a network. In particular, the IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering publishes articles on understanding, prediction, and control of structures and behaviors of networks at the fundamental level. The types of networks covered include physical or engineered networks, information networks, biological networks, semantic networks, economic networks, social networks, and ecological networks. Aimed at discovering common principles that govern network structures, network functionalities and behaviors of networks, the journal seeks articles on understanding, prediction, and control of structures and behaviors of networks. Another trans-disciplinary focus of the IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering is the interactions between and co-evolution of different genres of networks.
