摘要:
This article addresses the H-infinity output regulation problem of affine nonlinear systems with unmeasurable states and completely unknown dynamics. The H-infinity output regulation problem is formulated into a two-player zero-sum differential game problem with the control input and disturbance being the two adversary players. A model-based global state-feedback optimal solution to the H-infinity output regulation problem is presented by solving a Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs (HJI) equation, and a state-feedback reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm is proposed to solve the HJI equation without knowledge of system dynamics. A linear data-driven observer is designed to estimate the unmeasurable states and a novel output-feedback RL algorithm is developed based on the state-feedback RL framework by employing a criticactor-disturbance neural network with a hidden layer. The salient found of this work is that, under the proposed output-feedback RL algorithm, the closed-loop system can reach globally stable. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed solution
