ABSTRACT
The various applications of bearing-only sensor networks for detection and localization are becoming increasingly widespread and important. The array layout of the bearing-only sensor network seriously impacts the detection performance. This paper proposes a multi-strategy fusion improved adaptive mayfly algorithm (MIAMA) in a bearing-only sensor network to perform layout planning on the geometric configuration of the optimal detection. Firstly, the system model of a bearing-only sensor network was constructed, and the observability of the system was analyzed based on the Cramer-Rao Lower Bound and Fisher Information Matrix. Then, in view of the limitations of the traditional mayfly algorithm, which has a single initial population and no adaptability and poor global search capabilities, multi-strategy fusion improvements were carried out by introducing Tent chaos mapping, the adaptive inertia weight factor, and Random Opposition-based Learning. Finally, three simulation experiments were conducted. Through comparison with the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm, Mayfly Algorithm (MA), and Genetic Algorithm (GA), the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed MIAMA were validated.
ABSTRACT
The problem of state estimation based on bearing-only sensors is increasingly important while existing research on distributed filtering solutions is rather limited. Therefore, this paper proposed the novel distributed cubature information filtering (DCIF) method for addressing the state estimation challenge in bearing-only sensor networks. Firstly, the system model of the bearing-only sensor network was constructed, and the observability of the system was analyzed. The sensor nodes are paired to measure relative angle information. Subsequently, the coordinated consistency theory is employed to achieve a unified state estimation of the maneuvering target. The DCIF method enhances the observability of the system, addressing the issues of large accuracy errors and divergence in traditional nonlinear filtering algorithms. Building upon the theoretical proof of consistency convergence in DCIF, four simulation experiments were conducted for comparison. These experiments validate the effectiveness and superiority of the DCIF method in bearing-only sensor networks.
ABSTRACT
In this study, a novel nonfragile deep reinforcement learning (DRL) method was proposed to realize the finite-time control of switched unmanned flight vehicles. Control accuracy, robustness, and intelligence were enhanced in the proposed control scheme by combining conventional robust control and DRL characteristics. In the proposed control strategy, the tracking controller consists of a dynamics-based controller and a learning-based controller. The conventional robust control approach for the nominal system was used for realizing a dynamics-based baseline tracking controller. The learning-based controller based on DRL was developed to compensate model uncertainties and enhance transient control accuracy. The multiple Lyapunov function approach and mode-dependent average dwell time approach were combined to analyze the finite-time stability of flight vehicles with asynchronous switching. The linear matrix inequalities technique was used to determine the solutions of dynamics-based controllers. Online optimization was formulated as a Markov decision process. The adaptive deep deterministic policy gradient algorithm was adopted to improve efficiency and convergence. In this algorithm, the actor-critic structure was used and adaptive hyperparameters were introduced. Unlike the conventional DRL algorithm, nonfragile control theory and adaptive reward function were used in the proposed algorithm to achieve excellent stability and training efficiency. We demonstrated the effectiveness of the presented algorithm through comparative simulations.
ABSTRACT
This problem of intelligent switched fault detection filter design is investigated in this article. Firstly, the mode-dependent average dwell time (MDADT) method is applied to generate the time-dependent switching signal for switched systems with all subsystems unstable. Afterwards, the switched fault detection filter is proposed for the generation of residual signal, which consists of dynamics-based filter and learning-based filter. The MDADT method and multiple Lyapunov function (MLF) method are employed to guarantee the stability and prescribed attenuation performance. The parameters of dynamics-based filter are given by solving a series of linear matrix inequalities. To improve the transient performance, the deep reinforcement learning is introduced to design learning-based filter in the framework of actor-critic. The output of learning-based filter can be viewed as uncertainties of dynamics-based filter. The deep deterministic policy gradient algorithm and nonfragile control are adopted to guarantee the stability of algorithm and compensate the external disturbance. Finally, simulation results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the method in the paper.
ABSTRACT
This paper proposes a prescribed-time cooperative guidance law (PTCGL) against maneuvering target with variable line-of-sight (LOS) angle constraint for leader-following missiles, where the convergence times of the state errors can be arbitrarily set. The leader missile against the maneuvering target is provided as the modified proportional navigation (MPN) guidance law. The proposed PTCGL for follower missiles consist of two parts, in LOS direction, the range-to-go (Rgo) is selected as a co-variable, avoiding the estimation of time-to-go (Tgo), and a novel second-order nonlinear consensus protocol is developed to design the PTCGL; in normal LOS direction, considering the variable LOS angle constraint, the cooperative guidance law is designed with the proposed prescribed-time sliding model control (PTSMC) method. Besides, the prescribed-time convergence of Rgo and LOS errors are proved. Finally, the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed PTCGL with leader-following strategy is illustrated by numerical simulation results.
ABSTRACT
The problem of intelligent L 2-L ∞ consensus design for leader-followers multiagent systems (MASs) under switching topologies is investigated based on switched control theory and fuzzy deep Q learning. It is supposed that the communication topologies are time-varying, and the model of MASs under switching topologies is constructed based on switched systems. By employing linear transformation, the problem of consensus of MASs is converted into the issue of L 2-L ∞ control. The consensus protocol is composed of the dynamics-based protocol and learning-based protocol, where the robust control theory and deep Q learning are applied for the two parts to guarantee the prescribed performance and improve the transient performance. The multiple Lyapunov function (MLF) method and mode-dependent average dwell time (MDADT) method are combined to give the scheduling interval, which ensures stability and prescribed attenuation performance. The sufficient existing conditions of consensus protocol are given, and the solutions of the dynamics-based protocol are derived based on linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Then, the online design of the learning-based protocol is formulated as a Markov decision process, where the fuzzy deep Q learning is utilized to compensate for the uncertainties and achieve optimal performance. The variation of the learning-based protocol is modeled as the external compensation on the dynamics-based protocol. Therefore, the convergence of the proposed protocol can be guaranteed by employing the nonfragile control theory. In the end, a numerical example is given to validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method.

In this paper, a fast smooth second-order sliding mode control is presented for a class of stochastic systems with enumerable Ornstein-Uhlenbeck colored noises. The finite-time mean-square practical stability and finite-time mean-square practical reachability are first introduced. Instead of treating the noise as bounded disturbance, the stochastic control techniques are incorporated into the design of the controller. The finite-time convergence of the prescribed sliding variable dynamics system is proved by using stochastic Lyapunov-like techniques. Then the proposed sliding mode controller is applied to a second-order nonlinear stochastic system. Simulation results are presented comparing with smooth second-order sliding mode control to validate the analysis.
