Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new scheme based on neural networks for predicting the packet disordering and sliding mode control (SMC) to stabilize the nonlinear networked control systems (NCSs). It is assumed that the packet disordering is unknown in the NCSs. The stochastic configuration networks (SCNs), which randomly assign the input weights and biases and analytically evaluate the output weights, are designed to solve the problem of unknown packet disordering. A new SMC scheme is developed by integrating the SCNs algorithm to learn and control the system in advance. Specifically, a novel measurement of packet disordering is constructed for the quantization of the packet disordering. In addition, the newest signal principle leads to the existence of stochastic parameters, thereby resulting in a Markovian jumping system. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified by some simulation results.
