In this article, the neural network (NN)-based adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) event-triggered control method is presented to obtain the near-optimal control policy for the model-free finite-horizon H∞ optimal tracking control problem with constrained control input. First, using available input-output data, a data-driven model is established by a recurrent NN (RNN) to reconstruct the unknown system. Then, an augmented system with event-triggered mechanism is obtained by a tracking error system and a command generator. We present a novel event-triggering condition without Zeno behavior. On this basis, the relationship between event-triggered Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs (HJI) equation and time-triggered HJI equation is given in Theorem 3. Since the solution of the HJI equation is time-dependent for the augmented system, the time-dependent activation functions of NNs are considered. Moreover, an extra error is incorporated to satisfy the terminal constraints of cost function. This adaptive control pattern finds, in real time, approximations of the optimal value while also ensuring the uniform ultimate boundedness of the closed-loop system. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed near-optimal control pattern is verified by two simulation examples.
