Observer-based adaptive output-constrained control design of switched stochastic nonlinear systems with input saturation

In this article, the problem of adaptive fuzzy control for output-constrained switched stochastic nonlinear systems subject to input saturation is addressed. By employing the trigonometric function mapping method, the constrained systems are transformed into unconstrained ones, and the control goals of the original constrained systems are not affected. Meanwhile, an auxiliary system is established to deal with the issue of input saturation, and an observer is constructed to estimate the unmeasured states. Then, the unknown nonlinear functions in the system are approximated by the fuzzy logic systems (FLSs). Based on the backstepping technique and Lyapunov function method, an output feedback control strategy is designed, where the dynamic surface control technique is applied in the backstepping design process to overcome the issue of a large number of online calculations. The designed controller can guarantee that all the signals of the system satisfy bounded conditions, and the output can track given reference signals within a small error range. Finally, a simulation example is given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.     

Direct adaptive fuzzy control for nonlinear systems with time-varying delays

This paper focuses on the problem of direct adaptive fuzzy control for nonlinear strict-feedback systems with time-varying delays. Based on the Razumikhin function approach, a novel adaptive fuzzy controller is designed. The proposed controller guarantees that the system output converges to a small neighborhood of the reference signal and all the signals in the closed-loop system remain bounded. Different from the existing adaptive fuzzy control methodology, the fuzzy logic systems are used to model the desired but unknown control signals rather than the unknown nonlinear functions in the systems. As a result, the proposed adaptive controller has a simpler form and requires fewer adaptation parameters.     

Backstepping adaptive fuzzy control of uncertain nonlinear systems against actuator faults

A class of unknown nonlinear systems subject to uncertain actuator faults and external disturbances will be studied in this paper with the help of fuzzy approximation theory. Using backstepping technique, a novel adaptive fuzzy control approach is proposed to accommodate the uncertain actuator faults during operation and deal with the external disturbances though the systems cannot be linearized by feedback. The considered faults are modeled as both loss of effectiveness and lock-in-place （stuck at some unknown place）. It is proved that the proposed control scheme can guarantee all signals of the closed-loop system to be semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded and the tracking error between the system output and the reference signal converge to a small neighborhood of zero, though the nonlinear functions of the controlled system as well as the actuator faults and the external disturbances are all unknown. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the control approach.     

Adaptive fuzzy fault-tolerant output feedback control of uncertain nonlinear systems with actuator faults

This article develops an adaptive fuzzy control method for accommodating actuator faults in a class of unknown nonlinear systems with unmeasured states. The considered faults are modelled as both loss of effectiveness and lock-in-place (stuck at unknown place). With the help of fuzzy logic systems to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions, a fuzzy adaptive observer is developed for estimating the unmeasured states. Combining the backstepping technique with the nonlinear tolerant-fault control theory, a novel adaptive fuzzy faults-tolerant control approach is constructed. It is proved that the proposed control approach can guarantee that all the signals of the resulting closed-loop system are bounded and the tracking error between the system output and the reference signal converges to a small neighbourhood of zero by appropriate choice of the design parameters. Simulation results are provided to show the effectiveness of the control approach.     

Adaptive fuzzy control for pure-feedback stochastic nonlinear systems with unknown dead-zone input

This paper is concerned with the problem of adaptive fuzzy output tracking control for a class of nonlinear pure-feedback stochastic systems with unknown dead-zone. Fuzzy logic systems in Mamdani type are used to approximate the unknown nonlinearities, then a novel adaptive fuzzy tracking controller is designed by using backstepping technique. The control scheme is systematically derived without requiring any information on the boundedness of dead-zone parameters (slopes and break-points) and the repeated differentiation of the virtual control signals. The proposed adaptive fuzzy controller guarantees that all the signals in the closed-loop system are bounded in probability and the system output eventually converges to a small neighbourhood of the desired reference signal in the sense of mean quartic value. Simulation results further illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.     

Adaptive Fuzzy Backstepping Tracking Control for Flexible Robotic Manipulator

In this paper, an adaptive fuzzy state feedback control method is proposed for the single-link robotic manipulator system. The considered system contains unknown nonlinear function and actuator saturation. Fuzzy logic systems (FLSs) and a smooth function are used to approximate the unknown nonlinearities and the actuator saturation, respectively. By combining the command-filter technique with the backstepping design algorithm, a novel adaptive fuzzy tracking backstepping control method is developed. It is proved that the adaptive fuzzy control scheme can guarantee that all the variables in the closed-loop system are bounded, and the system output can track the given reference signal as close as possible. Simulation results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.      

Robust Adaptive Fuzzy Control of Nonlinear Systems with Unknown and Time‐Varying Saturation

In this paper, a robust adaptive fuzzy control approach is proposed for a class of nonlinear systems in strict‐feedback form with the unknown time‐varying saturation input. To deal with the time‐varying saturation problem, a novel controller separation approach is proposed in the literature to separate the desired control signal from the practical constrained control input. Furthermore, an optimized adaptation method is applied to the dynamic surface control design to reduce the number of adaptive parameters. By utilizing the Lyapunov synthesis, the fuzzy logic system technique and the Nussbaum function technique, an adaptive fuzzy control algorithm is constructed to guarantee that all the signals in the closed‐loop control system remain semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded, and the tracking error is driven to an adjustable neighborhood of the origin. Finally, some numerical examples are provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme in the literature.     

Observer-based adaptive fuzzy fault-tolerant output feedback control of uncertain nonlinear systems with actuator faults

With the help of fuzzy logic systems to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions, and K-filters are designed to estimate the unmeasured states. Combining the backstepping technique with the nonlinear fault-tolerant control theory, a novel adaptive fuzzy faults-tolerant control (FTC) approach is constructed. It is proved that the proposed control approach can guarantee that all the signals of the resulting closed-loop system are bounded and the tracking error between the system output and the reference signal converges to a small neighborhood of zero by appropriate choice of the design parameters. Simulation results are provided to show the effectiveness of the control approach.     

Adaptive Fuzzy Output Regulation for Unmanned Surface Vehicles with Prescribed Performance

Dynamics of an unmanned surface vehicle (USV) is usually hard to be modeled accurately due to system uncertainties and disturbances, which can significantly reduce system control performance. To guarantee a satisfied control performance under modeling uncertainties and disturbances, a novel control scheme combining adaptive fuzzy output regulation control and prescribed performance control is proposed in this paper. The unknown nonlinear dynamics of the USV is firstly approximated by a fuzzy logic system, and then an adaptive output regulation control law is developed using backstepping approach for the USV to track a reference system while rejecting disturbances and approximation errors induced by the fuzzy logic system. Meanwhile, the prescribed performance control technique is combined to the adaptive output regulation control design to reach a desired control performance in spite of the unknown system dynamics and disturbances. A simulation study is finally provided to demonstrate 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.
