Cubic neural unit for control applications

A novel neural structure called a cubic neural unit (CNU) is developed. The CNU can be used as a nonlinear controller for controlling the continuous dynamic plants. The structure and the mathematical details of the CNU are described briefly, and an example is used to show the usefulness of the CNU as a nonlinear controller. Neural structures, linear and quadratic, are used as state controllers for complex control systems such as satellite control. Results of all neural structures as neurocontrollers are shown
