Finite-time output feedback stabilization of high-order uncertain nonlinear systems

This paper studies the problem of finite-time output feedback stabilization for a class of high-order nonlinear systems with the unknown output function and control coefficients. Under the weaker assumption that output function is only continuous, by using homogeneous domination method together with adding a power integrator method, introducing a new analysis method, the maximal open sector Ω of output function is given. As long as output function belongs to any closed sector included in Ω, an output feedback controller can be developed to guarantee global finite-time stability of the closed-loop system.     

Output feedback stabilization for a general class of nonlinear systems via sampled‐data control

This paper considers global output feedback stabilization via sampled‐data control for a general class of nonlinear systems, which admit unknown control coefficients and nonderivable output function. A sector region of the output function is given by utilizing a technical lemma, and a sampled‐data controller is designed by combining a robust state stabilizer and a reduced‐order sampled‐data observer. By carefully choosing an appropriate sampling period, the proposed controller guarantees the globally asymptotical stability of the closed‐loop systems.     

Semiglobal output feedback control for uncertain nontriangular nonlinear systems with sector‐bounded unknown measurement

The problem of semiglobal stabilization for nontriangular nonlinear systems with unknown control coefficients and uncertain output function is investigated in this paper. By virtue of homogeneous domination technique, a novel nonrecursive design approach is presented to construct the semiglobal controller. To that end, a new output‐driven reduce‐order observer is developed to estimate the unmeasurable states. Moreover, it has been shown that we can determine the maximal sector bound of output function, in which an output feedback controller can be designed to render the closed‐loop system semiglobally stable. The effectiveness of controller is demonstrated by a ship simulation.     

Quantized feedback control for nonlinear feedforward systems with unknown output functions and unknown control coefficients

This paper investigates the quantized feedback control for nonlinear feedforward systems with unknown output functions and unknown control coefficients. The unknown output function is Lipschitz continuous but may not be derivable, and the unknown control coefficients are assumed to be bounded. To deal with this challenging quantized control problem, a time‐varying low‐gain observer is designed and a delicate time‐varying scaling transformation is introduced, which can avoid using the derivative information of the output function. Then, based on the well‐known backstepping method and the sector bound approach, a time‐varying quantized feedback controller is designed using the quantized output, which can achieve the boundedness of the closed‐loop system states and the convergence of the original system states. Moreover, a guideline is provided for choosing the parameters of the input and output quantizers such that the closed‐loop system is stable. Finally, two simulation examples are given to show the effectiveness of the control scheme.     

Observer‐based finite‐time output‐feedback controller for DC‐DC buck converters with unknown load variations

The output voltage regulation problem of a DC‐DC buck converter is investigated in this paper via an observer‐based finite‐time output‐feedback control approach. Considering the effects of unknown load variations and the case without current sensor, by using the technique of adding a power integrator and the idea of nonseparation principle, a finite‐time voltage regulation control algorithm via dynamic output feedback is designed. The main feature of the designed observer and controller does not need any load's information. Theoretically, it is proven that the output voltage can reach the desired voltage in a finite time under the proposed controller. The effectiveness of the proposed control method is illustrated by numerical simulations and experimental results.

Semi‐global output feedback control for nonlinear systems with uncertain time‐delay and output function

This paper considers semi‐global output feedback control for more general nonlinear systems with unknown time‐delay and output function whose derivative is unbounded from above. By introducing a new observer and using the backstepping design method and the Razumikhin stability theorem, an output feedback controller is constructed to achieve a semi‐global stability.

Global finite-time output feedback stabilisation for a class of uncertain nontriangular nonlinear systems

This article addresses the problem of global finite-time output feedback stabilisation for a class of nonlinear systems in nontriangular form with an unknown output function. Since the output function is not precisely known, traditional observers based on the output is not implementable. We first design a state observer and use the observer states to construct a controller to globally stabilise the nominal system without the perturbing nonlinearities. Then, we apply the homogeneous domination approach to design a scaled homogeneous observer and controller with an appropriate choice of gain to render the nonlinear system globally finite-time stable.

Simultaneous Design of Parallel Distributed Output Feedback and Anti‐windup Compensators for Constrained Takagi‐Sugeno Fuzzy Systems

This paper is devoted to developing a novel approach to deal with constrained continuous‐time nonlinear systems in the form of Takagi‐Sugeno fuzzy models. Here, the disturbed systems are subject to both input and state constraints. The one‐step design method is used to simultaneously synthesize the dynamic output feedback controller and its anti‐windup strategy. A parameter‐dependent version of the generalized sector condition is used together with Lyapunov stability theory to derive linear matrix inequality design conditions. Based on this result and for different design specifications, the synthesis of an anti‐windup based dynamic output feedback controller is expressed on the form of convex optimization problems. A physically motivated example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Adaptive output feedback tracking control for a class of uncertain switched nonlinear systems under arbitrary switching

This paper investigates the problem of adaptive output feedback tracking for uncertain switched nonlinear systems, under arbitrary switching. First, an adaptive output feedback controller is designed, which ensures the boundedness of all the closed-loop signals. Then, a novel adaptive-based robust output feedback control is proposed to drive the tracking error to zero, in which the bound of disturbances is not required to be known in advance. Both control algorithms are based on the common Lyapunov function method, without any restrictions on dwell time. To evaluate the performance of the proposed output feedback control schemes, a numerical example is presented and discussed.
