Adaptive finite‐time control for high‐order nonlinear systems with mismatched disturbances

In this paper, adaptive finite‐time control is addressed for a class of high‐order nonlinear systems with mismatched disturbances. An adaptive finite‐time controller is designed in which variable gains are adjusted to ensure finite‐time stabilization for the closed‐loop system. Chattering is reduced by a designed adaptive sliding mode observer which is also used to deal with the mismatched disturbances in finite time. The proposed adaptive finite‐time control method avoids calculating derivative repeatedly of traditional backstepping methods and reduces computational burden effectively. Three numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Rejection of unknown periodic disturbances for continuous‐time MIMO systems with dynamic uncertainties

Rejection of unknown periodic disturbances in multi‐channel systems has several industrial applications that include aerospace, consumer electronics, and many other industries. This paper presents a design and analysis of an output‐feedback robust adaptive controller for multi‐input multi‐output continuous‐time systems in the presence of modeling errors and broadband output noise. The trade‐off between robust stability and performance improvement as well as practical design considerations for performance improvements are presented. It is demonstrated that proper shaping of the open‐loop plant singular values as well as over‐parameterizing the controller parametric model can significantly improve performance. Numerical simulations are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Direct adaptive control for non‐linear uncertain systems with exogenous disturbances

A direct adaptive non‐linear control framework for multivariable non‐linear uncertain systems with exogenous bounded disturbances is developed. The adaptive non‐linear controller addresses adaptive stabilization, disturbance rejection and adaptive tracking. The proposed framework is Lyapunov‐based and guarantees partial asymptotic stability of the closed‐loop system; that is, asymptotic stability with respect to part of the closed‐loop system states associated with the plant. In the case of bounded energy L₂ disturbances the proposed approach guarantees a non‐expansivity constraint on the closed‐loop input–output map. Finally, several illustrative numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Command governor‐based adaptive control for dynamical systems with matched and unmatched uncertainties

In this paper, we propose a command governor‐based adaptive control architecture for stabilizing uncertain dynamical systems with not only matched but also unmatched uncertainties and achieving the desired command following performance of a user‐defined subset of the accessible states. In our proposed solution, online least‐squares solutions for the matched and unmatched parameters are obtained through integration method and they are employed in the adaptive control framework. Specifically, the matched uncertainty is identified and its effect upon the system behavior is entirely attenuated. Moreover, using the unmatched uncertainty approximation obtained through radial basis function neural networks, the command governor signal is designed to achieve the desired command following performance of the user‐defined subset of the accessible states. With this command governor‐based model reference adaptive control architecture, the tracking error of the selected states can be made arbitrarily small by judiciously tuning the design parameters. In addition to the analysis of the closed‐loop system stability using methods from the Lyapunov theory, our findings are also illustrated through numerical examples.

Immersion and invariance adaptive control for discrete‐time systems in strict‐feedback form with input delay and disturbances

This work presents a new adaptive control algorithm for a class of discrete‐time systems in strict‐feedback form with input delay and disturbances. The immersion and invariance formulation is used to estimate the disturbances and to compensate the effect of the input delay, resulting in a recursive control law. The stability of the closed‐loop system is studied using Lyapunov functions, and guidelines for tuning the controller parameters are presented. An explicit expression of the control law in the case of multiple simultaneous disturbances is provided for the tracking problem of a pneumatic drive. The effectiveness of the control algorithm is demonstrated with numerical simulations considering disturbances and input‐delay representative of the application.     

Adaptive interconnection and damping assignment passivity-based control for an underactuated cable-driven robot

Interconnection and damping assignment passivity-based control (IDA-PBC) provides a general framework to stabilize underactuated mechanical systems by assigning the desired Hamiltonian to the system, which is obtained from the solution of partial differential equations. In this article, the IDA-PBC method is applied to an underactuated cable-driven robot to stabilize out-of-plane motion of the system. An adaptation law for the system's mass is designed such that asymptotic stability is ensured with positive tension in cables through the direct Lyapunov method. The results are verified through some simulations.     

Asymptotic consensus via switching adaptive for nonlinear multi-agent systems subject to atypical disturbances

The paper is devoted to the asymptotic output consensus for a class of uncertain nonlinear multi-agent systems. The disturbance that the system suffered is said to be “atypical" since, unlike the related literature, it is unnecessarily continuously differentiable (e.g., sawtooth wave), and even permitted to be discontinuous (e.g., square wave), despite requiring it to be of unknown integer multiples of certain period. Typically, the multi-agent systems admit more than one ingredient causing heterogeneities: (i) No identical requirement is made on the system nonlinearities and input directions (the unknown signs of the input coefficients). (ii) The orders of agent dynamics can be different (the dynamics are first-order, second-order, or even high-order). Nevertheless, in the context, we still pursue the asymptotic output consensus, and unlike some related literature, instead of seeking a time-varying strategy which means the introduction of infinitely large gains, we combine a refined switching strategy with continuous adaptive one together to propose a new consensus protocol. It turns out that under the proposed protocol, all the agent outputs reach a common value while all the closed-loop signals are bounded. Simulation examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed protocol.     

Adaptive backstepping repetitive learning control design for nonlinear discrete‐time systems with periodic uncertainties

This paper addresses a tracking problem for uncertain nonlinear discrete‐time systems in which the uncertainties, including parametric uncertainty and external disturbance, are periodic with known periodicity. Repetitive learning control (RLC) is an effective tool to deal with periodic unknown components. By using the backstepping procedures, an adaptive RLC law with periodic parameter estimation is designed. The overparameterization problem is overcome by postponing the parameter estimation to the last backstepping step, which could not be easily solved in robust adaptive control. It is shown that the proposed adaptive RLC law without overparameterization can guarantee the perfect tracking and boundedness of the states of the whole closed‐loop systems in presence of periodic uncertainties. In addition, the effectiveness of the developed controller is demonstrated by an implementation example on a single‐link flexible‐joint robot. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Adaptive stabilization of uncertain nonlinear time‐delay systems with quantized input and output

This paper investigates the problem of global output feedback stabilization for a class of uncertain nonlinear time‐delay systems with unknown time delay in the states and the input in which both the input and the output are logarithmically quantized. The nonlinear functions of such systems are not completely known and satisfying certain bounded condition depending on the unmeasured states and the input. We construct a new dynamic high‐gain observer where only an output quantization instead of the output is available for measurement to dominate the unknown nonlinear functions view as external disturbances. A scaled change of coordinates and an appropriate Lyapunov‐Krasovskii functional are derived to achieve the global stabilization in the sense that all the states of such systems are defined, bounded in the maximal interval [0, +∞), and converge to the zero equilibrium. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the result.     

Adaptive output tracking for a class of non‐linear time‐delay systems

In this paper the output tracking control problem for a class of non‐linear time delay systems with some unknown constant parameters is addressed. Such a problem is solved in the case that the non‐linear time‐delay system has full delay relative degree and stable internal dynamics. It is supposed moreover that the output and its time derivatives until n?1, where n is the length of the state vector (euclidean part), do not depend explicitly on the unknown parameters. This work is the first step towards the application of the methodologies of adaptive control for non‐linear delayless systems, based on tools of differential geometry, to non‐linear time‐delay systems too.

Application of the modified IDA‐PBC for shunt active power filters control

The design of a passivity‐based nonlinear controller for a shunt active power filter to be used for the compensation of harmonic currents consumed by nonlinear loads is presented in this paper. The main objective of designed controller is to inject the necessary compensation current into the system so that the grid current is sinusoidal and balanced, regardless of whether the grid voltage is unbalanced and/or distorted. The references for the compensation currents are obtained from applying the pq theory. The controller is designed on the basis of a modified interconnection and damping assignment technique, which allows solving a tracking control problem. An integral action controller is added to the proposed controller using the same design technique, in order to eliminate the errors produced by parameter variations or uncertainties. The behavior of the proposed control strategy is validated through simulation using a realistic model, which includes converter switching and losses, grid distortion, and parameter variations.

Adaptive asymptotical tracking controller design for uncertain nonaffine nonlinear system with high‐order mismatched disturbances

In this paper, the problem of anti‐disturbance asymptotical tracking control is studied for nonaffine systems with high‐order mismatched disturbances. The disturbances can be described as polynomial functions, which are first estimated by constructing generalized extended state filter. The nonaffine system is changed into an augmented affine system via introducing an auxiliary integrator. A novel adaptive anti‐disturbance tracking controller is recursively designed, where the disturbance estimation is used for feedforward compensation at each step. A sliding mode differentiator is applied to reduce the computational burden taken by the backstepping method. The boundedness of the closed‐loop system is proved based on Lyapunov stability theory and zero error tracking performance is ensured. Finally, a numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Adaptive stabilization of neutral systems with nonlinear perturbations and mixed time‐varying delays

This paper addresses the stabilization problem of neutral systems. The neutral systems assumed to be subjected to nonlinear perturbations and mixed time‐varying delays. Specifically, the adaptive control method is used to stabilize the unknown neutral systems. If the system states and the delayed states with its derivatives are available for measurement, a new and less conservative adaptive control algorithm is proposed, and sufficient conditions for the existence of the adaptive control are derived based on Lyapunov's stability theory. The main idea is to make all the stability conditions of the system depend on desired arbitrary matrices, not on the given system matrices. This is accomplished by the adaptation process. Illustrative examples with numerical simulations are studied. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed design methods. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Observer‐based adaptive control for stochastic nonstrict‐feedback systems with unknown backlash‐like hysteresis

This paper studies an observer‐based adaptive fuzzy control problem for stochastic nonlinear systems in nonstrict‐feedback form. The unknown backlash‐like hysteresis is considered in the systems. In the design process, the unknown nonlinearities and unavailable state variables are tackled by introducing the fuzzy logic systems and constructing a fuzzy observer, respectively. By using adaptive backstepping technique with dynamic surface control technique, an adaptive fuzzy control algorithm is developed. For the closed‐loop system, the proposed controller can guarantee all the signals are 4‐moment semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded. Finally, simulation results further show the effectiveness of the presented control scheme.     

Adaptive neural network output feedback stabilization of nonlinear non‐minimum phase systems

This paper presents an adaptive output feedback stabilization method based on neural networks (NNs) for nonlinear non‐minimum phase systems. The proposed controller comprises a linear, a neuro‐adaptive, and an adaptive robustifying parts. The NN is designed to approximate the matched uncertainties of the system. The inputs of the NN are the tapped delays of the system input–output signals. In addition, an appropriate reference signal is proposed to compensate the unmatched uncertainties inherent in the internal system dynamics. The adaptation laws for the NN weights and adaptive gains are obtained using Lyapunov's direct method. These adaptation laws employ a linear observer of system dynamics that is realizable. The ultimate boundedness of the error signals are analytically shown using Lyapunov's method. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is shown by applying to a translation oscillator rotational actuator model. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Adaptive finite-time tracking control for parameterized nonlinear systems with full state constraints

In this article, the issue of adaptive finite-time dynamic surface control (DSC) is discussed for a class of parameterized nonlinear systems with full state constraints. Using the property of logarithmic function, a one-to-one nonlinear mapping is constructed to transform a constrained system into an unconstrained system with the same structure. The nonlinear filter is constructed to replace the first-order linear filter in the traditional DSC, and the demand on the filter time constant is reduced. Based on finite-time stable theory and using modified DSC, the finite-time controller is designed via DSC. Theoretical analysis shows that all the signals in the closed-loop system are semiglobal practical finite-time stable. Furthermore, none of the states are outside the defined open set. In the end, simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control schemes with both linear filters and nonlinear filters.
