For the ultralow altitude airdrop decline stage, many factors such as actuator nonlinearity, the uncertain atmospheric disturbances, and model unknown nonlinearity affect the precision of trajectory tracking. A robust adaptive neural network dynamic surface control method is proposed. The neural network is used to approximate unknown nonlinear continuous functions of the model, and a nonlinear robust term is introduced to eliminate the actuator’s nonlinear modeling error and external disturbances. From Lyapunov stability theorem, it is rigorously proved that all the signals in the closed-loop system are bounded. Simulation results confirm the perfect tracking performance and strong robustness of the proposed method.Downloads
