Adaptive neural prescribed performance control for a class of strict-feedback stochastic nonlinear systems under arbitrary switchings

This paper presents an adaptive neural tracking control scheme for strict-feedback stochastic nonlinear systems with guaranteed transient and steady-state performance under arbitrary switchings. First, by utilising the prescribed performance control, the prescribed tracking control performance can be ensured, while the requirement for the initial error is removed. Second, radial basis function neural networks approximation are used to handle unknown nonlinear functions and stochastic disturbances. At last, by using the common Lyapunov function method and the backstepping technique, a common adaptive neural controller is constructed. The designed controller overcomes the problem of the over-parameterisation, and further alleviates the computational burden. Under the proposed common adaptive controller, all the signals in the closed-loop system are 4-Moment (or 2 Moment) semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded, and the prescribed tracking control performance are guaranteed under arbitrary switchings. Three examples are presented to further illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Adaptive dynamic surface control for MIMO nonlinear time-varying systems with prescribed tracking performance

In this paper, an adaptive dynamic surface control scheme is proposed for a class of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) nonlinear time-varying systems. By fusing a bound estimation approach, a smooth function and a time-varying matrix factorisation, the obstacle caused by unknown time-varying parameters is circumvented. The proposed scheme is free of the problem of explosion of complexity and needs only one updated parameter at each design step. Moreover, all tracking errors can converge to predefined arbitrarily small residual sets with a prescribed convergence rate and maximum overshoot. Such features result in a simple adaptive controller which can be easily implemented in applications with less computational burden and satisfactory tracking performance. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

A robust neuro-adaptive controller for uncertain flexible joint robots is presented. This control scheme integrates H-infinity disturbance attenuation design and recurrent neural network adaptive control technique into the dynamic surface control framework. Two recurrent neural networks are used to adaptively learn the uncertain functions in a flexible joint robot. Then, the effects of approximation error and filter error on the tracking performance are attenuated to a prescribed level by the embedded H-infinity controller, so that the desired H-infinity tracking performance can be achieved. Finally, simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.     

Neural adaptive prescribed performance control for interconnected nonlinear systems with output dead zone

This paper is concerned with the neural‐based decentralized adaptive control for interconnected nonlinear systems with prescribed performance and unknown dead zone outputs. In the controller design procedure, neural networks are employed to identify unknown auxiliary functions, and the control design obstacle caused by the output nonlinearity is resolved via introducing Nussbaum function. Then, a reliable neural decentralized adaptive control is developed through incorporating the backstepping method and the prescribed performance technique. In the light of Lyapunov stability theory, it is verified that the proposed control scheme can ensure that all the closed‐loop signals are bounded, and can also guarantee that the tracking errors remain within a small enough compact set with the prescribed performance bounds. Finally, some simulation results are given to illustrate the feasibility of the devised control strategy.     

Prescribed performance adaptive neural output feedback dynamic surface control for a class of strict‐feedback uncertain nonlinear systems with full state constraints and unmodeled dynamics

This paper studies the output feedback tracking control problem for a class of strict‐feedback uncertain nonlinear systems with full state constraints and unmodeled dynamics using a prescribed performance adaptive neural dynamic surface control design approach. A nonlinear mapping technique is employed to address the state constraints. Radial basis function neural networks are utilized to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions. The unmodeled dynamics is addressed by introducing an available dynamic signal. Subsequently, we construct the controller and parameter adaptive laws using a backstepping technique. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, it is shown that all signals in the closed‐loop system are semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded and that the tracking error always remains within the prescribed performance bound. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

Also, the designed controller is independent of the time delays. Moreover,the dynamic compensation terms are introduced to facilitate the controller design. It is shown that the closed-loop tracking error converges to a small neighborhood of zero. Finally, a chaotic circuit system is initially bench tested to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Adaptive Neural Network-Based Control for a Class of Nonlinear Pure-Feedback Systems With Time-Varying Full State Constraints

In this paper, an adaptive neural network (NN) control approach is proposed for nonlinear pure-feedback systems with time-varying full state constraints. The pure-feedback systems of this paper are assumed to possess nonlinear function uncertainties. By using the mean value theorem, pure-feedback systems can be transformed into strict feedback forms. For the newly generated systems, NNs are employed to approximate unknown items. Based on the adaptive control scheme and backstepping algorithm, an intelligent controller is designed. At the same time, time-varying Barrier Lyapunov functions (BLFs) with error variables are adopted to avoid violating full state constraints in every step of the backstepping design. All closedloop signals are uniformly ultimately bounded and the output tracking error converges to the neighborhood of zero, which can be verified by using the Lyapunov stability theorem. Two simulation examples reveal the performance of the adaptive NN control approach.      

Adaptive control of linear time-varying plants: a new modelreference controller structure

The problem of developing a control law which can force the output of a linear time-varying plant to track the output of a stable linear time-invariant reference model is discussed. It is shown that the standard model reference controller, used for linear time-invariant plants, cannot guarantee zero tracking error in general when the plant is time-varying. A new model reference controller is proposed which guarantees stability and zero tracking error for a general class of linear time-varying plants with known parameters. When the time-varying plant parameters are unknown but vary slowly with time, it is shown that the new controller can be combined with a suitable adaptive law so that all the signals in the closed loop remain bounded for any bounded initial conditions and the tracking error is small in the mean. The assumption of slow parameter variations in the adaptive case can be relaxed if some information about the frequency or the form of the fast varying parameters is available a priori. Such information can be incorporated in an appropriately designed adaptive law so that stability and improved tracking performance is guaranteed for a class of plants with fast varying parameters

Event-triggered adaptive tracking control for nonlinear systems with input saturation and unknown control directions

This article is concerned with event-triggered adaptive tracking control design of strict-feedback nonlinear systems, which are subject to input saturation and unknown control directions. In the design procedure, a smooth nonlinear function is employed to approximate the saturation function so that the controller can be designed under the framework of backstepping. The Nussbaum gain technique is employed to address the issue of the unknown control directions. A predetermined time convergent performance function and a nonlinear mapping technique are introduced to guarantee that the tracking error can converge in the predetermined time with a fast convergence rate and a high accuracy. Then the event-triggered adaptive prescribed performance tracking control strategy is proposed, which not only ensures the boundedness of all the closed-loop signals and the convergence of tracking error but also reduces the communication burden from the controller to the actuator. At last, the simulation study further tests the availability of the proposed control strategy.
