Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The Research Paper needs the following Strong Revisions and is subject for re-review, and after re-review, the final decision for the paper will be done:

  1. Introduction should be more structured and should be oriented more towards problem definition, scope and other technical highlights. Add Objectives of the paper at end of Introduction and min 2-4 Objectives should be there in the paper.

2. Min 15-25 papers should be elaborated with Literature review. And every paper should signify what is proposed, what is the novelty and what experimental results are there. At the end of Literature review, highlight in 9-15 lines what overall technical gaps are observed that led to the design of the proposed methodology.

3. Figure 5 is not clear.

4. Add some more details to the proposed methodology in terms of Flowchart and Algorithm.

5. Add more information towards analysis.

6. Add case study based information to the paper.

7. Add future scope to the paper.

Reviewer 2 Report

Overall, this is an interesting work. Authors should carefully consider the following comments:

1- In case studies, numerical results should be given to further support simulation;

2- Authors should undertake a thorough literature review in Introduction to cover the state-of-the-art work related to  Radial Basis Function (RBF)Network used in various engineering domains, see: Design and real-time implementation of an adaptive fast terminal synergetic controller based on dual RBF neural networks for voltage control of DC–DC step-down converter, Electr Eng (2021). https://doi.org/10.1007/s00202-021-01353-y.

3-The overall control structure should be drawn in a diagram;

4- The quality of figure 5 should also be improved.
