Abstract
In this paper, the output regulation problem for nonlinear systems is considered. It is known that, this problem is solvable iff there exists a solution of partial differential-algebraic equation (PDAE) associated with the dynamics and the output equation of the systems. In general, it is difficult to solve such PDAE and several approximate solutions have been proposed. The radial basis function (RBF) network is adopted in order to solve the PDE approximately. The effectiveness of the approach is examined by numerical experiment for the well-known ball and beam system.
