Data-Driven Model-Free Adaptive Positioning and Anti-Swing Control for Bridge Cranes

Abstract

In the positioning and anti-swing control of bridge crane, a model-free adaptive control (MFAC) based on data-driven is proposed in order to eliminate the dependence of controller design on the model and the influence of unmodeled dynamics and uncertain disturbances on the controller performance. Only using the input and output data of the bridge crane system, the virtual full format dynamic linearized data model of the bridge crane nonlinear system is obtained through the data-driven modeling method. On the basis of this virtual data model, a model-free adaptive control law and a pseudo-Jacobian matrix estimation algorithm are designed according to the optimization theory under the constraint conditions. The stability of the closed loop system and the convergence of the system error are analyzed and proved by Lipschitz condition and inequality theory. The effectiveness of the control strategy for positioning and anti-swing control of bridge cranes is verified on simulated simulation and experimental platform of bridge crane. The results show that the proposed method is feasible and has good anti-disturbance performance and robustness.
