Stable adaptive fuzzy control for MIMO nonlinear systems

In this paper, an indirect adaptive fuzzy control scheme is presented for a class of multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) nonlinear systems whose dynamics are poorly understood. Within this scheme, fuzzy systems are employed to approximate the plant’s unknown dynamics. In order to overcome the controller singularity problem, the estimated gain matrix is decomposed into the product of one diagonal matrix and two orthogonal matrices, a robustifying control term is used to compensate for the lumped errors, and all parameter adaptive laws and robustifying control term are derived based on Lyapunov stability analysis. The proposed scheme guarantees that all the signals in the resulting closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB). Moreover, the tracking errors can be made small enough if the designed parameter is chosen to be sufficiently large. A simulation example is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.     

Robust adaptive fuzzy VSS control for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems using small gain design

In this paper, a novel robust adaptive fuzzy variable structure control (RAFVSC) scheme is proposed for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems. The uncertain nonlinear system and gain functions originating from modeling errors and external disturbances are all unstructured (or non-repeatable), state-dependent and completely unknown. The Takagi–Sugeno type fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate uncertain functions in the systems and the RAFVSC is designed by use of the input-to-state stability (ISS) approach and small gain theorem. In the algorithm, there are three advantages which are that the asymptotic stability of adaptive control in the presence of unstructured uncertainties can be guaranteed, the possible controller singularity problem in some of existing adaptive control schemes using feedback linearization techniques can be removed and the adaptive mechanism with minimal learning parameterizations can be achieved. The performance and effectiveness of the proposed methods are discussed and illustrated with two simulation examples.     

Robust adaptive fuzzy tracking control for a class of strict-feedback nonlinear systems based on backstepping technique

In this paper, the robust adaptive fuzzy tracking control problem is discussed for a class of perturbed strict-feedback nonlinear systems. The fuzzy logic systems in Mamdani type are used to approximate unknown nonlinear functions. A design scheme of the robust adaptive fuzzy controller is proposed by use of the backstepping technique. The proposed controller guarantees semi-global uniform ultimate boundedness of all the signals in the derived closed-loop system and achieves the good tracking performance. The possible controller singularity problem which may occur in some existing adaptive control schemes with feedback linearization techniques can be avoided. In addition, the number of the on-line adaptive parameters is not more than the order of the designed system. Finally, two simulation examples are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

Direct adaptive fuzzy control of a class of MIMO non-affine nonlinear systems

An adaptive fuzzy control approach is proposed for a class of multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) nonlinear systems with completely unknown non-affine functions. The global implicit function theorem is first used to prove the existence of an unknown ideal implicit controller that can achieve the control objectives. Within this scheme, fuzzy systems are employed the approximate the unknown ideal implicit controller, and robustifying control terms are used to compensate the approximation errors and external disturbances. The adjustable parameters of the used fuzzy systems are deduced from the stability analysis of the closed-loop system in the sense of Lyapunov. To show the efficiency of the proposed controllers, two simulation examples are presented.     

Direct adaptive fuzzy control for a class of MIMO nonlinear systems

This article presents a direct adaptive fuzzy control scheme for a class of uncertain continuous-time multi-input multi-output nonlinear (MIMO) dynamic systems. Within this scheme, fuzzy systems are employed to approximate an unknown ideal controller that can achieve control objectives. The adjustable parameters of the used fuzzy systems are updated using a gradient descent algorithm that is designed to minimize the error between the unknown ideal controller and the fuzzy controller. The stability analysis of the closed-loop system is performed using a Lyapunov approach. In particular, it is shown that the tracking errors are bounded and converge to a neighborhood of the origin. Simulations performed on a two-link robot manipulator illustrate the approach and exhibit its performance.

Chattering free adaptive fuzzy terminal sliding mode control for second order nonlinear system

A novel fuzzy terminal sliding mode control （FTSMC） scheme is proposed for position tracking of a class of second-order nonlinear uncertain system. In the proposed scheme, we integrate input-output linearization technique to cancel the nonlinearities. By using a function-augmented sliding hyperplane, it is guaranteed that the output tracking error converges to zero in finite time which can be set arbitrarily. The proposed scheme eliminates reaching phase problem, so that the closed-loop system always shows invariance property to parameter uncertainties. Fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the unknown system functions and switch item. Robust adaptive law is proposed to reduce approximation errors between true nonlinear functions and fuzzy systems, thus chattering phenomenon can be eliminated. Stability of the proposed control scheme is proved and the scheme is applied to an inverted pendulum system. Simulation studies are provided to confirm performance and effectiveness of the proposed control approach.

Finally, simulation studies are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design scheme.     

Direct adaptive fuzzy backstepping control of uncertain nonlinear systems in the presence of input saturation

In this paper, a novel direct adaptive fuzzy control approach is presented for uncertain nonlinear systems in the presence of input saturation. Fuzzy logic systems are directly used to tackle unknown nonlinear functions, and the adaptive fuzzy tracking controller is constructed by using the backstepping recursive design techniques. To overcome the problem of input saturation, a new auxiliary design system and Nussbaum gain functions are incorporated into the control scheme, respectively. It is proved that the proposed control approach can guarantee that all the signals of the resulting closed-loop system are semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded (SGUUB), and the tracking error converges to a small neighborhood of the origin. A simulation example is included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. Two key advantages of the scheme are that (i) the direct adaptive fuzzy control method is proposed for uncertain nonlinear system with input saturation by using Nussbaum function technique and (ii) The number of the online adaptive learning parameters is reduced.

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.

Modeling, control, and stability analysis for time-delay TLP systems using the fuzzy Lyapunov method

In this study, we present a Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model for the modeling and stability analysis of oceanic structures. We design a nonlinear fuzzy controller based on a parallel distributed compensation (PDC) scheme and reformulate the controller design problem as a linear matrix inequalities (LMI) problem as derived from the fuzzy Lyapunov theory. The robustness design technique is adopted so as to overcome the modeling errors for nonlinear time-delay systems subject to external oceanic waves. The vibration of the oceanic structure, i.e., the mechanical motion caused by the force of the waves, is discussed analytically based on fuzzy logic theory and a mathematical framework. The end result is decay in the amplitude of the surge motion affecting the time-delay tension leg platform (TLP) system. The feedback gain of the fuzzy controller needed to stabilize the TLP system can be found using the Matlab LMI toolbox. This proposed method of fuzzy control is applicable to practical TLP systems. The simulation results show that not only can the proposed method stabilize the systems but that the controller design is also simplified. The effects of the amplitude damping of the surge motion on the structural response are obvious and work as expected due to the control force.

Adaptive fuzzy backstepping output feedback control for strict feedback nonlinear systems with unknown sign of high-frequency gain

In this paper, an adaptive fuzzy robust output feedback control approach is proposed for a class of SISO nonlinear strict-feedback systems with unknown sign of high-frequency gain and the unmeasured states. The nonlinear systems addressed in this paper are assumed to possess the unmodeled dynamics, dynamical disturbances and unknown nonlinear functions, where the unknown nonlinear functions are not linearly parameterized, and no prior knowledge of their bounds is available. In the recursive designing, fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions, K-filters are designed to estimate the unmeasured states, and a dynamical signal and Nussbaum gain functions are introduced to handle the unmodeled dynamics and the unknown sign of the high-frequency gain, respectively. Based on Lyapunov function method, a stable adaptive fuzzy output feedback control scheme is developed. It is mathematically proved that the proposed adaptive fuzzy control approach can guarantee that all the signals of the closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded, the output converges to a small neighborhood of the origin. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is illustrated by the simulation examples.
