Abstract:
This paper presents a method based on neural networks to solve fractional infinite-horizon optimal control problems s(FIHOCP)s, where the dynamic control system depends on Caputo fractional derivatives. First, with the help of an approximation, the Caputo derivative is replaced to integer-order derivative. Using a suitable change of variable, the IHOCP is transformed into a finite-horizon one. According to the Pontryagin minimum principle (PMP) for optimal control problems and by constructing an error function, an unconstrained minimization problem is defined. In the optimization problem, the trial solutions are used for state, costate and control functions where these trial solutions are constructed by using two-layered perceptron neural network. Two numerical results are introduced to explain our main results.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
