Discrete-time extended state observer-based model-free adaptive constrained sliding mode control with modified prescribed performance via CFDL and PFDL

To tackle the trajectory tracking problem and achieve high control accuracy in many actual nonlinear systems with unknown dynamics and input saturation, a novel discrete-time extended state observer-based model-free adaptive constrained sliding mode control with modified prescribed performance is investigated via compact-form dynamic linearization (CFDL) and partial-form dynamic linearization (PFDL). Firstly, the original non-affine system is turned into an affine one comprising an unknown nonlinear term and a linearly parametric term affine to the input via both PFDL and CFDL. Then, a discrete-time extended state observer (DESO) is used to estimate the lumped disturbance containing the unknown nonlinear time-varying term and the term relevant to the estimation error of pseudo partial derivative (PPD) parameter. Furthermore, a modified prescribed performance function is introduced in the model-free adaptive sliding mode control scheme to keep the output tracking error in the prescribed bound without causing any asymmetric offset error in the steady-state. Meanwhile, to suppress the influence of input saturation on the control system, an anti-windup compensator is used. Finally, rigorous theoretical analyses show the robust convergence of the tracking error via the proposed CFDL and PFDL-based methods under external disturbances. Simulations verify the superiority of the modified prescribed performance function, DESO, and anti-windup compensator in the proposed method. Also, the effects of the PFDL-based method and the CFDL-based one are compared during the simulation.     

Composite adaptive locally weighted learning control for multi-constraint nonlinear systems

A composite adaptive locally weighted learning (LWL) control approach is proposed for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with system constraints, including state constraints and asymmetric control saturation in this paper. The system constraints are tackled by considering the control input as an extended state variable and introducing barrier Lyapunov functions (BLFs) into the backstepping procedure. The system uncertainty is approximated by a composite adaptive LWL neural networks (NNs), in which a prediction error is constructed by using a series-parallel identification model, and NN weights are updated by both the tracking error and the prediction error. The update law with composite error feedback improves uncertainty approximation accuracy and trajectory tracking accuracy. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach have been demonstrated by formal proof and simulation results.

Online constrained optimization based adaptive robust control of a class of MIMO nonlinear systems with matched uncertainties and input/state constraints

A performance oriented two-loop control approach is proposed for a class of multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) systems with input saturation, state constraints, matched parametric uncertainties and input disturbances. In the inner loop, a constrained adaptive robust control (ARC) law is synthesized to achieve the required robust tracking performances with respect to on-line replanned trajectory in the presence of input saturation and various types of matched uncertainties. In the outer loop, a replanned trajectory is generated by solving a constrained optimization algorithm online to minimize the converging time of the overall system response to the desired trajectory while not violating various constraints. Interaction of the two loops is explicitly characterized by a set of inequalities that the design variables of each loop have to satisfy. It is theoretically shown that the resulting closed-loop system can track feasible desired trajectories with a guaranteed converging time and steady-state tracking accuracy without violating the state constraints. Since the system in study is most appropriate to describe the dynamics of the robotic systems, the control of a two-axis planar robotic manipulator is used as an application example. Comparative simulation results demonstrate the advantage of the proposed approach over the traditional approaches in practical applications.     

A performance oriented multi-loop constrained adaptive robust tracking control of one-degree-of-freedom mechanical systems: Theory and experiments

A performance oriented multi-loop approach to the adaptive robust tracking control of one-degree-of-freedom mechanical systems with input saturation, state constraints, parametric uncertainties and input disturbances is presented. The control system contains three loops. In the outer loop, constrained optimization algorithms are developed to generate a replanned trajectory on-line at a low sampling rate so that the converging speed of the overall system response to the desired target is maximized while not causing input saturation and the violation of state constraints. In the inner loop, a constrained adaptive robust control (ARC) law is synthesized and implemented at high sampling rate to achieve the required robust tracking performances with respect to the replanned trajectory even with various types of uncertainties and input saturation. In the middle loop, a set-membership identification (SMI) algorithm is implemented to obtain a tighter estimate of the upper bound of the inertia so that more aggressive replanned trajectory could be used to further improve the overall system response speed. Interaction of the three loops is explicitly characterized by a set of inequalities that the design variables of each loop have to satisfy. It is theoretically shown that the resulting closed-loop system can track feasible desired trajectories with a guaranteed converging time and steady-state tracking accuracy without violating the state constraints. Experiments have been carried out on a linear motor driven industrial positioning system to compare the proposed multi-loop constrained ARC algorithm with some of the traditional control algorithms. Comparative experimental results obtained confirm the superior performance of the proposed algorithm over existing ones.     

Robust microprocessor control of robot manipulators

In this paper the problem of robust tracking for robot manipulators in the presence of uncertainty and input constraints is studied. Using the theory of uncertain dynamical systems, robust non-linear control strategies, with guaranteed tracking properties that can be quantified given bounds on the extent of model uncertainty, sensor noise, input disturbances, etc., are derived. A torque optimization strategy is also utilized to optimize the joint torques in the event of actuator saturation. The algorithm has been implemented using a single Motorola 12 MHz MC68000 microprocessor on a three-link revolute joint manipulator constructed by the School of Mechanical Engineering at Cornell University. Experimental results are presented here showing the feasibility and performance of the control stragegy.     

Nonsingular predefined-time dynamic surface control of a flexible-joint space robot with actuator constraints

To achieve predefined-time trajectory tracking control of a flexible-joint space robot(FJSR) with actuator constraints, a nonsingular predefined-time dynamic surface control scheme is developed. The input saturation caused by actuator constraints is addressed via the designed predefined-time anti-saturation compensator. On this basis, two different control laws are designed for such high-order nonlinear systems by utilizing the backstepping technique, and a novel nonlinear filter is constructed to filter the virtual control signals, thus avoiding the “differential expansion” phenomenon. Moreover, a singularity-free auxiliary function is designed to solve the singularity issue generated by the derivative of fractional power terms in the predefined-time control algorithm framework. The closed-loop system is proven to be semi-globally predefined-timely uniformly ultimately bounded (SGPTUUB) via constructing the suitable Lyapunov function. The difference and effectiveness of the two designed control laws are illustrated by the conducted simulations. Both of them allow the FJSR system to track the desired trajectory in a reasonably predefined time.

By using the backstepping technique and the dynamic surface method, a robust adaptive tracking control scheme is developed. The closed-loop system is proved to be uniformly ultimately bounded thorough Lyapunov stability analysis. Simulation results with application to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed robust control scheme.

To cope with the nonlinear electro-magneto-mechanical characteristics, this paper proposes a perturbation wavelet neural sliding mode position control (PWSPC) system for a voice coil motor (VCM) driver.

Further, the parameter learning laws and stability analysis are derived in the sense of Lyapunov function; thus, the parameter convergence and system stability can be guaranteed. Finally, the experimental results verify that the proposed PWSPC system can achieve favorable control performance such as good disturbance rejection and good tracking accuracy.
