Fuzzy adaptive backstepping robust control for SISO nonlinear system with dynamic uncertainties

In this paper, a fuzzy adaptive backstepping design procedure is proposed for a class of nonlinear systems with three types of uncertainties: (i) nonlinear uncertainties; (ii) unmodeled dynamics and (iii) dynamic disturbances. The fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the nonlinear uncertainties, nonlinear damping terms are used to counteract the dynamic disturbances and fuzzy approximation errors, and a dynamic signal is introduced to dominate the unmodeled dynamics. The derived fuzzy adaptive control approach guarantees the global boundedness property for all the signals and states, and at the same time, steers the output to a small neighborhood of the origin. Simulation studies are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.     

Adaptive fuzzy decentralized output feedback control for stochastic nonlinear large‐scale systems using DSC technique

In this paper, an adaptive fuzzy decentralized backstepping output feedback control approach is proposed for a class of uncertain large‐scale stochastic nonlinear systems without the measurements of the states. The fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions, and a fuzzy state observer is designed for estimating the unmeasured states. Using the designed fuzzy state observer, and by combining the adaptive backstepping technique with dynamic surface control technique, an adaptive fuzzy decentralized output feedback control approach is developed. It is shown that the proposed control approach can guarantee that all the signals of the resulting closed‐loop system are semi‐globally uniformly ultimately bounded in probability, and the observer errors and the output of the system converge to a small neighborhood of the origin by choosing appropriate design parameters. A simulation example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed approaches. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A Combined Backstepping and Small-Gain Approach to Robust Adaptive Fuzzy Output Feedback Control

In this paper, an adaptive fuzzy output feedback control approach is proposed for single-input-single-output nonlinear systems without the measurements of the states. The nonlinear systems addressed in this paper are assumed to possess unmodeled dynamics in the presence of unstructured uncertainties and dynamic disturbances, where the unstructured uncertainties are not linearly parameterized, and no prior knowledge of their bounds are available. Fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the unstructured uncertainties, and a state observer is developed to estimate the unmeasured states. By combining the backstepping technique with the small-gain approach, a stable adaptive fuzzy output feedback control method is proposed. It is shown that by applying the proposed adaptive fuzzy control approach, the closed-loop systems are semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is illustrated from simulation results.

Design of a simplified adaptive fuzzy backstepping control for uncertain discrete-time nonlinear systems

This paper presents a simplified adaptive fuzzy backstepping control for uncertain discrete-time nonlinear systems. It is assumed that the systems are described by a discrete-time equation with nonlinear uncertainties to be viewed as the modelling errors and the unknown external disturbances, and the states are observed with measurement noises. To design the simplified adaptive fuzzy backstepping control, the modelling errors are approximated by using the fuzzy inference approach based on the extended single-input rule modules, and the estimates for the unmeasurable states and the adjustable parameters are derived by using the weighted and its simplified weighted least squares estimators. It is proved that the states are ultimately bounded, and the estimation errors remain in the vicinity of zero. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is indicated through the simulation experiment of a simple numerical system.
