Adaptive output feedback control for nonholonomic systems with uncertain chained form

The output feedback adaptive control problem is investigated for nonholonomic systems with strongly nonlinear uncertainties and unknown virtual control directions. A nonlinear output feedback switching controller based on the output measurement of the first subsystem is employed in order to make the state scaling effective and ensure the convergence of the system states. The novel observer/estimator is introduced for state and unknown parameter estimates. The integrator backstepping technique by the use of a constructive recursive is applied to the design of the adaptive controller and to overcome the unknown virtual control directions. The simulation result validates the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Observer-based tracking control for MIMO pure-feedback nonlinear systems with time-delay and input quantisation

In addressing the adaptive neural backstepping control for multiple-input and multiple-output nonlinear systems in pure-feedback form with time-delay and input quantisation, we construct a high-gain state observer and an output-feedback adaptive control scheme using backstepping method, with neural networks to estimate the uncertain nonlinear functions. Then, we propose an output feedback neural controller that ensures all the state trajectories in the time-delay quantised nonlinear systems are ultimately bounded, with the control signal being quantised by either a hysteretic quantiser or a logarithmic quantiser. An illustrative example is presented to show the applicability of the new control method developed.     

Nonlinear adaptive output feedback control of series resonant DC–DC converters

The problem of regulating the output voltage of DC-to-DC series resonant converters (SRC) is addressed. The difficulty is threefold: (i) the converter model involves discontinuous and highly nonlinear terms and is controlled through a modulating frequency signal; (ii) all state variables are not accessible to measurements; (iii) the load is uncertain and may even be varying. An adaptive output feedback controller, involving online state variable estimation, is designed and shown to ensure quite satisfactory tracking performances. The controller development is performed using the adaptive backstepping control approach combined with the high-gain observer design technique.

Adaptive nonlinear output feedback tracking with a partialhigh-gain observer and backstepping

An adaptive output feedback controller for nonlinear systems with nonlinearities depending on the first r (1⩽r⩽n) derivatives of the output is proposed. The derivatives are estimated with a partial state high-gain observer, and the remaining states are handled using a backstepping method. Compared with methods based on full state high-gain observer, this approach improves robustness with respect to measurement noise and avoids overparametrization. Semiglobal tracking is proven under the assumption that the regressor is persistently exciting

In this paper, a new fuzzy-neural adaptive control approach is developed for a class of single-input and single-output （SISO） nonlinear systems with unmeasured states. Using fuzzy neural networks to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions, a fuzzy- neural adaptive observer is introduced for state estimation as well as system identification. Under the framework of the backstepping design, fuzzy-neural adaptive output feedback control is constructed recursively. It is proven that the proposed fuzzy adaptive control approach guarantees the global boundedness property for all the signals, driving the tracking error to a small neighbordhood of the origin. Simulation example is included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Finally, two numerical examples and one realistic example are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design approach.

A new nonlinear output tracking controller via output-feedback

In this paper, the output tracking control is investigated for a class of nonlinear systems when only output is available for feedback. Based on the multivariable analog of circle criterion, an observer is first introduced. Then, the observer-based output tracking controller is constructively designed by using the integral backstepping approach together with completing square. It is shown that, under relatively mild conditions, all the closed-loop signals are uniformly bounded. Meanwhile the system output asymptotically tracks the desired output. A simulation example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.     

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.

This paper focuses on adaptive fuzzy tracking control for a class of uncertain single-input /single-output nonlinear strict-feedback systems. Fuzzy logic systems are directly used to approximate unknown and desired control signals and a novel direct adaptive fuzzy tracking controller is constructed via backstepping. The proposed adaptive fuzzy controller guarantees that the output of the closed-loop system converges to a small neighborhood of the reference signal and all the signals in the closed-loop system remain bounded. A main advantage of the proposed controller is that it contains only one adaptive parameter that needs to be updated online. Finally, an example is used to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Adaptive backstepping control of wheeled inverted pendulum with velocity estimator

In this paper, we introduce a backstepping control design of a wheeled inverted pendulum. Based on a second-order motion equation of the body angle, an adaptive integral backstepping controller is designed to stabilize the body angle. It is shown that the σ-modification rule in the adaptive update law guarantees the boundedness of the errors in estimating the time-varying signal that is an output of a linear system with every bounded input signal. Then, the stabilizing controller for the wheel angle is constructed by a PD-type positive feedback. The derived controller requires the full-state measurements. In the output feedback case, the K filter or the observer backstepping is needed. However, the structure of the controller becomes complicated. We propose a non-model-based differentiator based on the adaptive update law. Since the non-model-based differentiator does not require any knowledge of the dynamic structure of the signal, we can use it as a velocity estimator for unknown nonlinear systems. Therefore, we replaced the velocity measurement with the estimates by the non-model-based differentiator. Finally, simulation results for the proposed controller are presented.
