Robust fuzzy control of mechanical systems

This paper considers the problem of controlling a mechanical system described by Euler-Lagrange equations to follow a desired trajectory in the presence of uncertainties. A fuzzy logic system (FLS) is used to approximate the unknown dynamics of the system. Based on the a priori information, the premise part of the FLS as well as a nominal weight matrix are designed first and are fixed. A compensation signal to the weight matrix error is designed based on Lyapunov analysis. To further reduce the tracking error due to the function reconstruction error, a second compensation signal is also synthesized. By running two estimators online for weight matrix error bound and function reconstruction error bound, the implementation of the proposed controller needs no a priori information on these bounds. Exponential tracking to a desired trajectory up to a uniformly ultimately bounded error is achieved with the proposed control. The effectiveness of this control is demonstrated through simulation and experiment results. These results also show that by incorporating a priori informations about the system, the fuzzy logic control can result good tracking behavior using a few fuzzy IF- THEN rules.     

Sliding mode learning control for T-S fuzzy system and an application to hypersonic flight vehicle

Sliding mode-based learning control is presented for T-S fuzzy system. A T-S fuzzy model with both uncertainties and unmodeled dynamics is proposed firstly, in which the information of uncertainties and unmodeled dynamics are assumed to be unknown. Then, according to a given reference model, state-tracking error system is built. Respecting facts, the input matrices of the built T-S fuzzy model are different from each other. An extended state observer is built for estimating the unknown uncertainties and unmodeled dynamics, and a corresponding sliding surface is proposed. A learning controller is then presented for the closed loop system. Moreover, a numerical simulation result on hypersonic flight vehicles is considered to testify the controller's availability.     

Fuzzy neural-based control for nonlinear time-varying delay systems.

In this paper, a partially known nonlinear dynamic system with time-varying delays of the input and state is approximated by N fuzzy-based linear subsystems described by a state-space model with average delay. To shape the response of the closed-loop system, a set of fuzzy reference models is established. Similarly, the same fuzzy sets of the system rule are employed to design a fuzzy neural-based control. The proposed control contains a radial-basis function neural network to learn the uncertainties caused by the approximation error of the fuzzy model (e.g., time-varying delays and parameter variations) and the interactions resulting from the other subsystems. As the norm of the switching surface is inside of a defined set, the learning law starts; in this situation, the proposed method is an adaptive control possessing an extra compensation of uncertainties. As it is outside of the other set, which is smaller than the aforementioned set, the learning law stops; under this circumstance, the proposed method becomes a robust control without the compensation of uncertainties. A transition between robust control and adaptive control is also assigned to smooth the possible discontinuity of the control input. No assumption about the upper bound of the time-varying delays for the state and the input is required. However, two time-average delays are needed to simplify the controller design: 1) the stabilized conditions for every transformed delay-free subsystem must be satisfied; and 2) the learning uncertainties must be relatively bounded. The stability of the overall system is verified by Lyapunov stability theory. Simulations as compared with a linear transformed state feedback with integration control are also arranged to consolidate the usefulness of the proposed control.

Adaptive fuzzy neural network finite-time command filtered control of n-link robotic systems with actuator saturation

The finite time tracking control of n-link robotic system is studied for model uncertainties and actuator saturation. Firstly, a smooth function and adaptive fuzzy neural network online learning algorithm are designed to address the actuator saturation and dynamic model uncertainties. Secondly, a new finite-time command filtered technique is proposed to filter the virtual control signal. The improved error compensation signal can reduce the impact of filtering errors, and the tracking errors of system quickly converge to a smaller compact set within finite time. Finally, adaptive fuzzy neural network finite-time command filtered control achieves finite-time stability through Lyapunov stability criterion. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed control.     

Observer-based hybrid adaptive fuzzy control for affine and nonaffine uncertain nonlinear systems

This paper presents a novel observer-based hybrid adaptive fuzzy controller for affine and nonaffine nonlinear systems with external disturbance. The suggested design is so easy and does not need a mathematical model for system under control and also it is very simple, efficient and robust. Based on the adaptive method and the system states observer, an observer-based adaptive fuzzy method is proposed to control an uncertain nonlinear system. Also, a supervisory controller term is employed to attenuate the residual error to a desired level and compensate the both uncertainties and observer errors. Although proposed control method needs the uncertainties to be bounded, it does not need this bound to be identified. Stability of the proposed method is shown based on Lyapunov theory and also the strictly positive real condition if all the implicated signals are uniformly bounded. Finally, in our simulation studies, to demonstrate the usefulness and efficiency of the suggested technique, an uncertain nonlinear system is employed.

Feedback Linearization Control for Systems with Mismatched Uncertainties via Disturbance Observers

This paper focuses on a novel feedback linearization control (FLC) law based on a self‐learning disturbance observer (SLDO) to counteract mismatched uncertainties. The FLC based on BNDO (FLC‐BNDO) demonstrates robust control performance only against mismatched time‐invariant uncertainties while the FLC based on SLDO (FLC‐SLDO) demonstrates robust control performance against mismatched time‐invariant and ‐varying uncertainties, and both of them maintain the nominal control performance in the absence of mismatched uncertainties. In the estimation scheme for the SLDO, the BNDO is used to provide a conventional estimation law, which is used as the learning error for the type‐2 neuro‐fuzzy system (T2NFS), and T2NFS learns mismatched uncertainties. Thus, the T2NFS takes the overall control of the estimation signal entirely in a very short time and gives unbiased estimation results for the disturbance. A novel learning algorithm established on sliding mode control theory is derived for an interval type‐2 fuzzy logic system. The stability of the overall system is proven for a second‐order nonlinear system with mismatched uncertainties. The simulation results show that the FLC‐SLDO demonstrates better control performance than the traditional FLC, FLC with an integral action (FLC‐I), and FLC‐BNDO.

Model construction, rule reduction, and robust compensation forgeneralized form of Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems

This paper presents a systematic procedure of fuzzy control system design that consists of fuzzy model construction, rule reduction, and robust compensation for nonlinear systems. The model construction part replaces the nonlinear dynamics of a system with a generalized form of Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems, which is newly developed by us. The generalized form has a decomposed structure for each element of A_i and B_i matrices in consequent parts. The key feature of this structure is that it is suitable for constructing IF-THEN rules and reducing the number of IF-THEN rules. The rule reduction part provides a successive procedure to reduce the number of IF-THEN rules. Furthermore, we convert the reduction error between reduced fuzzy models and a system to model uncertainties of reduced fuzzy models. The robust compensation part achieves the decay rate controller design guaranteeing robust stability for the model uncertainties. Finally, two examples demonstrate the utility of the systematic procedure developed     

Smooth trajectory tracking of three-link robot: a self-organizingCMAC approach

A neuro fuzzy system which is embedded in the conventional control theory is proposed to tackle physical learning control problems. The control scheme is composed of two elements. The first element, the fuzzy sliding mode controller (FSMC), is used to drive the state variables to a specific switching hyperplane or a desired trajectory. The second one is developed based on the concept of the self organizing fuzzy cerebellar model articulation controller (FCMAC) and adaptive heuristic critic (AHC). Both compose a forward compensator to reduce the chattering effect or cancel the influence of system uncertainties. A geometrical explanation on how the FCMAC algorithm works is provided and some refined procedures of the AHC are presented as well. Simulations on smooth motion of a three-link robot is given to illustrate the performance and applicability of the proposed control scheme.

Parallel Distributed Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control for Nonlinear Mismatched Uncertain Systems

A new design approach of a parallel distributed fuzzy sliding mode controller for nonlinear systems with mismatched time varying uncertainties is presented in this paper. The nonlinear system is approximated by the Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy linear model. The approximation error between the nonlinear system and the fuzzy linear model is considered as one part of the uncertainty in the uncertain nonlinear system. The time varying uncertainties are assumed to have the format which enables the design of the coefficient matrix of the sliding function to satisfy a sliding coefficient matching condition. With the sliding coefficient matching condition satisfied, a parallel distributed fuzzy sliding mode controller (PDFSC) is designed. The stability and the sliding mode of the fuzzy sliding control system are guaranteed. Also, the nonlinear system is shown to be invariant on the sliding surface. Moreover, the chattering around the sliding surface in the sliding mode control can be reduced by the proposed design approach. Simulation results are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy sliding mode controller. This work is partly supported by the the R.O.C. National Science Council through Grant NSC93-2213-E-197-004.

Observer-based Iterative and Repetitive Learning Control for a Class of Nonlinear Systems

In this paper, both output-feedback iterative learning control (ILC) and repetitive learning control (RLC) schemes are proposed for trajectory tracking of nonlinear systems with state-dependent time-varying uncertainties. An iterative learning controller, together with a state observer and a fully-saturated learning mechanism, through Lyapunov-like synthesis, is designed to deal with time-varying parametric uncertainties. The estimations for outputs, instead of system outputs themselves, are applied to form the error equation, which helps to establish convergence of the system outputs to the desired ones. This method is then extended to repetitive learning controller design. The boundedness of all the signals in the closed-loop is guaranteed and asymptotic convergence of both the state estimation error and the tracking error is established in both cases of ILC and RLC. Numerical results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
