The camera always suffers from image instability on the moving vehicle due to the unintentional vibrations caused by road rough-nessThis paper presents a novel adaptive neural network based on slidingmode control strategy to stabilize the image captured areaof the camera The purpose is to suppress vertical displacement of sprung mass with the application of active suspension systemSince the active suspension system has nonlinear and time varying characteristics adaptive neural network (ANN) is proposed tomake the controller robustness against systematic uncertainties which release the model-based requirement of the sliding modelcontrol and the weighting matrix is adjusted online according to Lyapunov functionThe control system consists of two loopsTheouter loop is a position controller designed with sliding mode strategy while the PID controller in the inner loop is to track thedesired force The closed loop stability and asymptotic convergence performance can be guaranteed on the basis of the Lyapunovstability theory Finally the simulation results show that the employed controller effectively suppresses the vibration of the cameraand enhances the stabilization of the entire camera where different excitations are considered to validate the system performance
1 Introduction
Camera stabilization is very important for visual guidance inautonomous vehicle and the goal of image stabilization is toremove unwanted motion from dynamic camera sequences[1] The better image-acquisition process will increase thefeasibility and reliability of the process and analysis after-ward Current efforts in the research of image stabilizationtechniques can be broadly classified as three major cate-gories optical stabilization [2] digital image stabilization[3] and mechanical stabilization [4] The ability of vibrationamplitude control in optical and digital image stabilizationis relatively limited Different from former two stabilizersmechanical stabilization involves stabilizing the entire cam-era not just the image It is suitable for large camera movingsituation In the condition of the camera fixed on the top ofthe car the vertical vibration amplitude of the camera needsto be reduced Therefore active suspension system (ASS) isa kind of mechanical stabilization that can suppress the largevertical vibration caused by road roughness
Active suspension system has been widely used in bothmilitary and civil vehicles [5ndash7] Compared with the con-ventional suspension the force actuator is added to provide
energy to the suspension system which enables the suspen-sion to control the attitude of the vehicle body [8] In previousworks such as [9 10] they ignored the actuator dynamicsHowever the nonlinear dynamic of the hydraulic actuatorshould be considered to improve the performance of thecontrol system [11] The control strategy of active suspensionsystem has attracted many researchersrsquo attention in the pastfew decades Different control approaches have been appliedsuch as Hinfin [12] LQG control [13] fuzzy control [14] andartificial neural networks [15] The road disturbances themeasurement errors and the dynamic uncertain model arethe key factors that affect the control performance
In reality the camerarsquos vibrations are inevitable andunpredictableThe vehicle body can provide a stable platformfor the camera to detection of the obstacleswith application ofactive suspension system For a nonlinear active suspensionsystem with bounded uncertainty and external disturbancethe sliding mode control (SMC) has the advantage of robust-ness to improve the antidisturbance ability of the systemIn [16] the state predictors along with SMC technique areapplied to active suspension system which consider the timedelay of the data transmission Mixed control strategies are

proposed in [17] and an enhanced adaptive self-fuzzy slidingmode controller for a quarter-car active suspension systemis presented Furthermore an adaptive sliding controller isusedwith the function approximation approach for nonlinearsystem containing bounded unknown time-varying uncer-tainties in [18] Besides the SMC strategy neural networkapproach has received increasing attention mainly due to itsadvantages of nonlinear mapping properties and its abilityto deal with uncertainty [19] However in traditional mul-tilayer neural controller the relatively complex structure ofneuron network takesmuch time for computation andweightadjustment An adaptive neural network with learning andself-tuning ability could be used to overcome the drawbacks
This paper lays an emphasis on designing a controllerwith a quarter-car active suspension to suppress verticalvibration of the camera so that the displacement of the sprungmass changes as small as possible In this way we proposea sliding mode controller combined with adaptive neuralnetworks approach to stabilize the image captured area ofthe camera In the meantime the dynamics of the hydraulicactuator is considered and can track the desired force withPID controller in the inner loop Owing to the parametersof the model which are nonlinear conventional adaptiveschemes are not applicable Adaptive radial basis functionneural network (RBFNN) [20 21] is employed to make thecontroller robustness against system uncertainties and theupdate laws of the weighting matrix are derived on the basisof the Lyapunov stability theory The closed loop stabilityand asymptotic convergence performance can be guaranteedFinally the effectiveness of the proposed control approach isvalidated by simulations under different road profiles
This paper is organized as follows Section 2 gives sus-pension system dynamic Section 3 develops the adaptive NNcontroller In Section 4 the results of computer simulation ofthe controller are presented Section 5 concludes this paper
2 Suspension System Dynamic andProblem Formulation
This paper considers the quarter-car model [22] with acamera installed on the top of vehicle as shown in Figure 1The camera is rigidly connected with the vehicle body Thesprung mass 119898119887 represents the car body and unsprung massis 119898119908 The tire is modeled as a linear spring with stiffness119896119905 119888119901 and 119896119904 are the linear damping and stiffness of thesuspension system respectively Variables 119909119887 119909119908 and 119909119903
are the displacement of the body wheel and road profilerespectively A hydraulic actuator between the sprung andunsprung masses can exert a force 119865119886
The dynamic equations of the suspension system can beexpressed as
119898119887119887 + 119896119904 (119909119887 minus 119909119908) + 119888119901 (119887 minus 119908) minus 119865119886 = 0

Select the state variables as 119909 = [1199091 1199092 1199093 1199094]119879 where

The objective of this paper is to design a controllerto suppressing vertical vibration of the camera so that thetarget is stable in image plane Since the camera is in rigidconnection with the car body the displacement of the carbody 1199091 can reflect the vibration situation of the camera inthe following analysis
Lemma 2 (see [26]) Let119891(119909) be a continuous function whichis defined on a compact set 119863 Then there exists a neuralnetworks system 119882
119879119911(119909) which can approximate 119891(119909) with
arbitrary accuracy such that
119891 (119909) = 119882119879119911 (119909) + 120576 (119909) (8)

3 Controller Design
The proposed control scheme consists of two loops as shownin Figure 3 The nonlinearity of the hydraulic actuators andtheir force generation capabilities are also considered incontrol design The outer loop performs a position controlof the vehicle body and the desired value of 119909119889 is zero Theinner loop is the PID controller for tracking purpose TheRBFNN approach is employed to approximate the unknownfunction 119891(119909 119905) and 119892(119905) This control method may be muchmore feasible in practical application
31 Designing Inner Loop In order to track the desiredforce for the inner loop a PID controller is used to controlthe electrohydraulic actuators The PID controller can bedesigned to stabilize the closed loop system and providesuitable tracking performance [27] The PID controller isgiven as follows

where 119896119901 is the proportional gain 119896119894 is the integral gain and119896119889 is the differential gain The error is defined as
119890119865 = 119865119889 minus 119865119886 (12)
where 119865119889 is the desired force and 119865119886 is the actual forcegenerated by the actuator

119904 = 1 + 1205821199091 (13)
where 120582 is the convergent rate of 1199091 on the sliding surfaceThe derivative of above equation (13) is given as follows
119904 = 1 + 1205821 (14)
Substituting (6) into (14)
119904 = 119891 (119909 119905) + 119892 (119905) 119865119889 + 1205821 (15)

where 120576119886 = 120576119891 + 119865119889120576119892 To prove the stability of this controlsystem and to find the update laws for

5 Conclusions
The vibration of the camera will directly affect the imagequality and impede the subsequent processes So the studyof the image vibration attenuation is important in applica-tions In this paper this innovative sliding mode controlbased on mixed adaptive neural networks approach hasbeen successfully employed and simulated to reduce thevertical vibration of the camera using a quarter-car activesuspension system where electrohydraulic actuators withnonlinear characteristics are considered for accurate controlThe radial basis function (RBF) network is used to overcomethe uncertainties in the dynamicmodel of ASS and bymeansof the Lyapunov theorem the weights of neural networksare regulated online without previous learning phase Thewhole control architecture contains two loopsThe inner loopis a PID controller to track the desired force whereas inthe outer loop the position controller is designed by thesliding mode strategy The proposed control scheme cansignificantly suppress the displacement oscillation amplitudeof the camera Different road conditions are used in thesimulation The results show that the presented methodcan guarantee that the active suspension system has a fastconvergence and strong robustness which can effectivelyenhance the stabilization of the camera image

proposed in [17] and an enhanced adaptive self-fuzzy slidingmode controller for a quarter-car active suspension systemis presented Furthermore an adaptive sliding controller isusedwith the function approximation approach for nonlinearsystem containing bounded unknown time-varying uncer-tainties in [18] Besides the SMC strategy neural networkapproach has received increasing attention mainly due to itsadvantages of nonlinear mapping properties and its abilityto deal with uncertainty [19] However in traditional mul-tilayer neural controller the relatively complex structure ofneuron network takesmuch time for computation andweightadjustment An adaptive neural network with learning andself-tuning ability could be used to overcome the drawbacks
This paper lays an emphasis on designing a controllerwith a quarter-car active suspension to suppress verticalvibration of the camera so that the displacement of the sprungmass changes as small as possible In this way we proposea sliding mode controller combined with adaptive neuralnetworks approach to stabilize the image captured area ofthe camera In the meantime the dynamics of the hydraulicactuator is considered and can track the desired force withPID controller in the inner loop Owing to the parametersof the model which are nonlinear conventional adaptiveschemes are not applicable Adaptive radial basis functionneural network (RBFNN) [20 21] is employed to make thecontroller robustness against system uncertainties and theupdate laws of the weighting matrix are derived on the basisof the Lyapunov stability theory The closed loop stabilityand asymptotic convergence performance can be guaranteedFinally the effectiveness of the proposed control approach isvalidated by simulations under different road profiles
This paper is organized as follows Section 2 gives sus-pension system dynamic Section 3 develops the adaptive NNcontroller In Section 4 the results of computer simulation ofthe controller are presented Section 5 concludes this paper

3 Controller Design
The proposed control scheme consists of two loops as shownin Figure 3 The nonlinearity of the hydraulic actuators andtheir force generation capabilities are also considered incontrol design The outer loop performs a position controlof the vehicle body and the desired value of 119909119889 is zero Theinner loop is the PID controller for tracking purpose TheRBFNN approach is employed to approximate the unknownfunction 119891(119909 119905) and 119892(119905) This control method may be muchmore feasible in practical application
31 Designing Inner Loop In order to track the desiredforce for the inner loop a PID controller is used to controlthe electrohydraulic actuators The PID controller can bedesigned to stabilize the closed loop system and providesuitable tracking performance [27] The PID controller isgiven as follows

32 Designing Outer Loop According to RFB neural networkstated previously a novel sliding mode controller for aquarter-car active suspension systems can be developed Thesliding surface is defined as
119904 = 1 + 1205821199091 (13)
where 120582 is the convergent rate of 1199091 on the sliding surfaceThe derivative of above equation (13) is given as follows
119904 = 1 + 1205821 (14)
Substituting (6) into (14)
119904 = 119891 (119909 119905) + 119892 (119905) 119865119889 + 1205821 (15)

where 120576119886 = 120576119891 + 119865119889120576119892 To prove the stability of this controlsystem and to find the update laws for

So 119891 119892 and

119891 =

Hence we may conclude that

(25)
In order to satisfy le 0 it must be 1205782|119904| ge 119904120576119886Then we can choose 1205782 with the condition 1205782 ge |120576119886|The

4 Simulations
In this section the simulation will be given on a quarter-carmodel System parameters are shown in Table 1
In order to evaluate the performance of the designedcontroller we consider three typical cases
Case 1 As the resonance frequency of the car body isabout 1Hz an external excitation close to this frequencymight induce unwanted oscillation Then to test controlperformance near the system resonance frequency considerthat the road profile is assigned as
1199091199031 (119905) = 0025 sin 2120587119905 (27)
Case 2 Consider a sine bump in an otherwise smooth roadsurface The mathematical description of this type grounddisplacement is given by
1199091199032 (119905) =

119905)) if 119905119897 le 119905 le 119905ℎ0 otherwise
(28)
where ℎ and 119871 are height and length of the bump and V isthe vehicle velocity Assume ℎ = 005m 119871 = 25m andV = 18 kmh The corresponding road excitation is shownin Figure 4
Case 3 Consider the road excitation which is consistentand typically specified as a random process with a grounddisplacement power spectral density (PSD) of
119866119902 (119899) = 119866119902 (1198990) (

When a vehicle is riding on the bump terrain thedynamic responses of the camera position by using NN-SMC and LQR controllers are shown in Figure 9 It canbe observed that NN-SMC has more obvious performanceimprovement The maximum amplitude of sprung massdisplacement responses is suppressed by 65 and 30respectively compared with the passive suspension and thecurve converges to zero within 16 s by NN-SMC method InFigure 10 the maximum value of suspension deflection byNN-SMC is 35mm which is smaller than the value underLQR method In addition the trajectory of 120582 is shown inFigure 11

5 Conclusions
The vibration of the camera will directly affect the imagequality and impede the subsequent processes So the studyof the image vibration attenuation is important in applica-tions In this paper this innovative sliding mode controlbased on mixed adaptive neural networks approach hasbeen successfully employed and simulated to reduce thevertical vibration of the camera using a quarter-car activesuspension system where electrohydraulic actuators withnonlinear characteristics are considered for accurate controlThe radial basis function (RBF) network is used to overcomethe uncertainties in the dynamicmodel of ASS and bymeansof the Lyapunov theorem the weights of neural networksare regulated online without previous learning phase Thewhole control architecture contains two loopsThe inner loopis a PID controller to track the desired force whereas inthe outer loop the position controller is designed by thesliding mode strategy The proposed control scheme cansignificantly suppress the displacement oscillation amplitudeof the camera Different road conditions are used in thesimulation The results show that the presented methodcan guarantee that the active suspension system has a fastconvergence and strong robustness which can effectivelyenhance the stabilization of the camera image

Actually the sprung mass is always time varying Thesystem dynamics can be simplified as

where 119891(119909 119905) is an unknown bounded function and 119892(119905) isthe time-varying control gain From (4) we can obtain

The objective of this paper is to design a controllerto suppressing vertical vibration of the camera so that thetarget is stable in image plane Since the camera is in rigidconnection with the car body the displacement of the carbody 1199091 can reflect the vibration situation of the camera inthe following analysis
Lemma 2 (see [26]) Let119891(119909) be a continuous function whichis defined on a compact set 119863 Then there exists a neuralnetworks system 119882
119879119911(119909) which can approximate 119891(119909) with
arbitrary accuracy such that
119891 (119909) = 119882119879119911 (119909) + 120576 (119909) (8)
where 119882 = [1199081 1199082 119908119873]119879 is the ideal constant weight

3 Controller Design
The proposed control scheme consists of two loops as shownin Figure 3 The nonlinearity of the hydraulic actuators andtheir force generation capabilities are also considered incontrol design The outer loop performs a position controlof the vehicle body and the desired value of 119909119889 is zero Theinner loop is the PID controller for tracking purpose TheRBFNN approach is employed to approximate the unknownfunction 119891(119909 119905) and 119892(119905) This control method may be muchmore feasible in practical application
31 Designing Inner Loop In order to track the desiredforce for the inner loop a PID controller is used to controlthe electrohydraulic actuators The PID controller can bedesigned to stabilize the closed loop system and providesuitable tracking performance [27] The PID controller isgiven as follows

where 119896119901 is the proportional gain 119896119894 is the integral gain and119896119889 is the differential gain The error is defined as
119890119865 = 119865119889 minus 119865119886 (12)
where 119865119889 is the desired force and 119865119886 is the actual forcegenerated by the actuator

32 Designing Outer Loop According to RFB neural networkstated previously a novel sliding mode controller for aquarter-car active suspension systems can be developed Thesliding surface is defined as
119904 = 1 + 1205821199091 (13)
where 120582 is the convergent rate of 1199091 on the sliding surfaceThe derivative of above equation (13) is given as follows
119904 = 1 + 1205821 (14)
Substituting (6) into (14)
119904 = 119891 (119909 119905) + 119892 (119905) 119865119889 + 1205821 (15)

where 120576119886 = 120576119891 + 119865119889120576119892 To prove the stability of this controlsystem and to find the update laws for

Therefore the update laws and parameter 120582 can be

So 119891 119892 and

119891 =

Hence we may conclude that

(25)
In order to satisfy le 0 it must be 1205782|119904| ge 119904120576119886Then we can choose 1205782 with the condition 1205782 ge |120576119886|The

4 Simulations
In this section the simulation will be given on a quarter-carmodel System parameters are shown in Table 1
In order to evaluate the performance of the designedcontroller we consider three typical cases
Case 1 As the resonance frequency of the car body isabout 1Hz an external excitation close to this frequencymight induce unwanted oscillation Then to test controlperformance near the system resonance frequency considerthat the road profile is assigned as
1199091199031 (119905) = 0025 sin 2120587119905 (27)
Case 2 Consider a sine bump in an otherwise smooth roadsurface The mathematical description of this type grounddisplacement is given by
1199091199032 (119905) =
05ℎ (1 + sin(2120587V119871
119905)) if 119905119897 le 119905 le 119905ℎ0 otherwise
(28)
where ℎ and 119871 are height and length of the bump and V isthe vehicle velocity Assume ℎ = 005m 119871 = 25m andV = 18 kmh The corresponding road excitation is shownin Figure 4
Case 3 Consider the road excitation which is consistentand typically specified as a random process with a grounddisplacement power spectral density (PSD) of
119866119902 (119899) = 119866119902 (1198990) (

When a vehicle is riding on the bump terrain thedynamic responses of the camera position by using NN-SMC and LQR controllers are shown in Figure 9 It canbe observed that NN-SMC has more obvious performanceimprovement The maximum amplitude of sprung massdisplacement responses is suppressed by 65 and 30respectively compared with the passive suspension and thecurve converges to zero within 16 s by NN-SMC method InFigure 10 the maximum value of suspension deflection byNN-SMC is 35mm which is smaller than the value underLQR method In addition the trajectory of 120582 is shown inFigure 11

From the above results of the simulation it is clearlyseen from Figures 9 and 10 in Case 2 that the closed loopsystem with NN-SMC has stronger robustness FurthermoreFigure 6 indicates that the vertical vibration of the camera ismuch smaller in the NN-SMCmethod for the resonance fre-quency of the car body which improves the stabilization forcapturing images The tracking speed of the estimation valueof 119891(119909) is given in Figure 8 and the tracking performance

5 Conclusions
The vibration of the camera will directly affect the imagequality and impede the subsequent processes So the studyof the image vibration attenuation is important in applica-tions In this paper this innovative sliding mode controlbased on mixed adaptive neural networks approach hasbeen successfully employed and simulated to reduce thevertical vibration of the camera using a quarter-car activesuspension system where electrohydraulic actuators withnonlinear characteristics are considered for accurate controlThe radial basis function (RBF) network is used to overcomethe uncertainties in the dynamicmodel of ASS and bymeansof the Lyapunov theorem the weights of neural networksare regulated online without previous learning phase Thewhole control architecture contains two loopsThe inner loopis a PID controller to track the desired force whereas inthe outer loop the position controller is designed by thesliding mode strategy The proposed control scheme cansignificantly suppress the displacement oscillation amplitudeof the camera Different road conditions are used in thesimulation The results show that the presented methodcan guarantee that the active suspension system has a fastconvergence and strong robustness which can effectivelyenhance the stabilization of the camera image

119904 = 1 + 1205821199091 (13)
where 120582 is the convergent rate of 1199091 on the sliding surfaceThe derivative of above equation (13) is given as follows
119904 = 1 + 1205821 (14)
Substituting (6) into (14)
119904 = 119891 (119909 119905) + 119892 (119905) 119865119889 + 1205821 (15)

where 120576119886 = 120576119891 + 119865119889120576119892 To prove the stability of this controlsystem and to find the update laws for

In order to satisfy le 0 it must be 1205782|119904| ge 119904120576119886Then we can choose 1205782 with the condition 1205782 ge |120576119886|The

Case 2 Consider a sine bump in an otherwise smooth roadsurface The mathematical description of this type grounddisplacement is given by

119905)) if 119905119897 le 119905 le 119905ℎ0 otherwise
(28)
where ℎ and 119871 are height and length of the bump and V isthe vehicle velocity Assume ℎ = 005m 119871 = 25m andV = 18 kmh The corresponding road excitation is shownin Figure 4
Case 3 Consider the road excitation which is consistentand typically specified as a random process with a grounddisplacement power spectral density (PSD) of

5 Conclusions
The vibration of the camera will directly affect the imagequality and impede the subsequent processes So the studyof the image vibration attenuation is important in applica-tions In this paper this innovative sliding mode controlbased on mixed adaptive neural networks approach hasbeen successfully employed and simulated to reduce thevertical vibration of the camera using a quarter-car activesuspension system where electrohydraulic actuators withnonlinear characteristics are considered for accurate controlThe radial basis function (RBF) network is used to overcomethe uncertainties in the dynamicmodel of ASS and bymeansof the Lyapunov theorem the weights of neural networksare regulated online without previous learning phase Thewhole control architecture contains two loopsThe inner loopis a PID controller to track the desired force whereas inthe outer loop the position controller is designed by thesliding mode strategy The proposed control scheme cansignificantly suppress the displacement oscillation amplitudeof the camera Different road conditions are used in thesimulation The results show that the presented methodcan guarantee that the active suspension system has a fastconvergence and strong robustness which can effectivelyenhance the stabilization of the camera image

4 Simulations
In this section the simulation will be given on a quarter-carmodel System parameters are shown in Table 1
In order to evaluate the performance of the designedcontroller we consider three typical cases
Case 1 As the resonance frequency of the car body isabout 1Hz an external excitation close to this frequencymight induce unwanted oscillation Then to test controlperformance near the system resonance frequency considerthat the road profile is assigned as
1199091199031 (119905) = 0025 sin 2120587119905 (27)
Case 2 Consider a sine bump in an otherwise smooth roadsurface The mathematical description of this type grounddisplacement is given by
1199091199032 (119905) =
05ℎ (1 + sin(2120587V119871
119905)) if 119905119897 le 119905 le 119905ℎ0 otherwise
(28)
where ℎ and 119871 are height and length of the bump and V isthe vehicle velocity Assume ℎ = 005m 119871 = 25m andV = 18 kmh The corresponding road excitation is shownin Figure 4
Case 3 Consider the road excitation which is consistentand typically specified as a random process with a grounddisplacement power spectral density (PSD) of
119866119902 (119899) = 119866119902 (1198990) (

where 119899 is the spatial frequency in119898minus1119866119902(119891) stands for PSDin time domain and 1198990 is the reference spatial frequencySelect the road roughness as 119866119902(1198990) = 64 times 10

5 Conclusions
The vibration of the camera will directly affect the imagequality and impede the subsequent processes So the studyof the image vibration attenuation is important in applica-tions In this paper this innovative sliding mode controlbased on mixed adaptive neural networks approach hasbeen successfully employed and simulated to reduce thevertical vibration of the camera using a quarter-car activesuspension system where electrohydraulic actuators withnonlinear characteristics are considered for accurate controlThe radial basis function (RBF) network is used to overcomethe uncertainties in the dynamicmodel of ASS and bymeansof the Lyapunov theorem the weights of neural networksare regulated online without previous learning phase Thewhole control architecture contains two loopsThe inner loopis a PID controller to track the desired force whereas inthe outer loop the position controller is designed by thesliding mode strategy The proposed control scheme cansignificantly suppress the displacement oscillation amplitudeof the camera Different road conditions are used in thesimulation The results show that the presented methodcan guarantee that the active suspension system has a fastconvergence and strong robustness which can effectivelyenhance the stabilization of the camera image

When a vehicle is riding on the bump terrain thedynamic responses of the camera position by using NN-SMC and LQR controllers are shown in Figure 9 It canbe observed that NN-SMC has more obvious performanceimprovement The maximum amplitude of sprung massdisplacement responses is suppressed by 65 and 30respectively compared with the passive suspension and thecurve converges to zero within 16 s by NN-SMC method InFigure 10 the maximum value of suspension deflection byNN-SMC is 35mm which is smaller than the value underLQR method In addition the trajectory of 120582 is shown inFigure 11
