Abstract

In this paper, based on the fast finite-time stability theorem, an adaptive fuzzy control problem is considered for a class of nonlinear systems in pure-feedback form with unknown disturbance. In the controller design process, the mean value theorem is applied to address the nonaffine structure of the pure-feedback plant, the universal approximation capability of the fuzzy logic system (FLS) is utilized to compensate the unknown uncertainties, and the adaptive backstepping technique is used to design the controller model. Combined with the selection of the appropriate Lyapunov function at each step, a fuzzy-based adaptive tracking control scheme is proposed, which ensures that all signals in the closed-loop system are bounded and tracking error converges to a small neighborhood of the origin in fast finite-time. Finally, simulation results illustrate the validity of the proposed approach.

1. Introduction

During the recent years, the topics related to the field of nonlinear control have attracted a lot of attention [1–3]. Many approaches for controller design have been investigated, such as backstepping control, dynamic surface control, adaptive control, and so on. Among them, the adaptive control combined with the backstepping technique has provided a systematic framework model-based for control design. The adaptive backstepping control method solves the control design problem for nonlinear systems with unmatched conditions and uncertain parameters and ensures the stability of the closed-loop system successfully. Besides, it supplies an approach which can achieve the transient performance of the systems better by tuning design parameters. Until now, it has already become one of the popular control methods for nonlinear systems in [4–7]. In [8], an adaptive tracking control scheme was proposed for nonlinear strict-feedback systems with additive disturbances. In [9], the authors focused on the position control for a gear transmission servo system by using the backstepping technique. In [10], an adaptive controller was designed via backstepping for nonlinear systems with quantized states. In [11], the adaptive backstepping control approach was developed for a class of stochastic cascade nonlinear time-delay systems.

Despite the adaptive backstepping control method having a few merits, there is a need for large-enough gains to suppress uncertainties, which will degrade control performances. It is not feasible for a controlled system with unknown nonlinear functions to use this method alone. Then, the fuzzy logic system (FLS) proposed by Wang and Mendel [12] and the neural network (NN) proposed by Polycarpou [13] have solved this problem well. Because of their universal approximation capabilities, they have become a set of powerful tools to compensate the unknown nonlinear functions of closed-loop systems. During the past decades, many scholars have obtained a lot of meaningful results by using FLSs and NNs combined with the adaptive backstepping technique in [14–26]. An adaptive NN-based fault-tolerant controller for the nonlinear system was investigated in [27]. Combining the adaptive backstepping technique with FLSs and NNs, several interesting control strategies were designed for uncertain stochastic nonlinear systems in [28, 29]. In [30], the authors presented a NNs-based robust adaptive tracking control scheme for hexacopter UAVs. In [31], an adaptive fuzzy-based event-triggered controller was considered for strict-feedback nonlinear systems.

Although the fuzzy-based or NNs-based adaptive backstepping control approaches have made great progress, the existing literatures are restricted to the strict-feedback nonlinear systems, and only few results are available about the control of nonlinear systems in pure-feedback form. Different from the strict-feedback nonlinear systems, pure-feedback nonlinear systems possess nonaffine property. It means that there are not state variables to be used as virtual control signals and the actual control input in the pure-feedback form. Therefore, it is more hard and challenging to address the problems of controller design and stability analysis in the pure-feedback systems. In [32, 33], the authors presented the adaptive neural control for nonlinear pure-feedback systems. A fuzzy-based adaptive controller was designed for pure-feedback nonlinear systems in [34]. The control schemes were proposed for pure-feedback nonlinear systems with unknown uncertainties in [35, 36], which were designed by combining dynamic surface control with adaptive backstepping algorithm.

It is worth pointing out that the abovementioned literatures are developed on the basis of the Lyapunov asymptotically stability theorem. However, in practical applications, the finite-time control method has lots of advantages such as higher tracking precision, better robustness, and the ability to achieve systems transient performance faster. Recently, plenty of meaningful research results have been produced about the finite-time control problem in [37–42]. Based on the finite-time fault-tolerant control, a new control approach was introduced for robot manipulators by utilizing time-delay estimation in [43]. The adaptive finite-time control problem was addressed for a class of nonlinear systems with the actuator faults in [44]. In [45], the authors designed an adaptive decentralized controller for time-varying output-constrained nonlinear large-scale systems in finite-time. The Lyapunov theorem of finite-time stability was proposed for the first time in [46]. Then, in order to obtain the faster convergence rate, the fast finite-time stability was introduced in [47]. However, compared with the asymptotic control design process, the procedure of adaptive finite-time or fast finite-time controller design is more complex for the nonlinear strict-feedback systems. Furthermore, it is a difficult but meaningful unsolved issue to develop an adaptive fuzzy fast finite-time tracking control scheme for nonlinear systems in pure-feedback form. It is the main motivation of this paper.

Inspired by the aforementioned observations, in this paper, the problem of adaptive fuzzy fast finite-time tracking control is considered for a class of nonlinear systems in pure-feedback form with unknown disturbance. During the controller design, the mean value theorem is applied to deal with the nonaffine problem of the pure-feedback systems, FLSs are adopted to approximate packaged unknown nonlinearities, and an improved adaptive fuzzy fast finite-time controller is designed via the backstepping technique. The stability of the closed-loop systems is guaranteed in fast finite-time. To sum up, the main contributions in this paper are listed below:(1)The fast finite-time theorem is extended to pure-feedback systems for the first time. Also, a fuzzy-based adaptive fast finite-time tracking control scheme for nonlinear systems in pure-feedback form with unknown disturbance is proposed for the first time, too.(2)Combined the traditional adaptive backstepping technique with the characteristics of the radial basis function of fuzzy logic systems, by applying the mean value theorem and the fast finite-time theory, the system structure is simplified so that reduces complexity of the controller design.

The remaining parts are organized as follows. Section 2 introduces problem formulation and preliminaries. Section 3 presents the controller design procedure in detail and stability analysis. Section 4 provides simulation results. Section 5 concludes this research.

Finally, for , according to Lemma 3, we obtain

In the present stage, the controller design has been finished and the following theorem concludes the main result of this research:

Theorem 1. consider the closed-loop system consisting of the plant (1) and the control input (43) with the adaptive laws (24), (35), and (46). Under Assumptions 1–3 and the bounded initial conditions, all the signals defined in the closed-loop system are fast finite-time bounded and the tracking error satisfieswith assured settling time as

Similarly, is also bounded since . From (24), is bounded which is the result from the boundedness of and . The boundedness of in (21) can be also inferred. As , is bounded because of the boundedness of and . In an inductive manner, the boundedness of , as well as , can be guaranteed. The boundedness of actual control signal in (43) can also be inferred. Thus, the boundedness of all closed-loop signals can be explained.
Furthermore, we transform (60) into the following form , where . When , namely, , one has .
Based on (60) and Lemma 1, we obtain that converges to the set in fast finite-time with the settling-time estimationCombing with the definition of in (38), it can be observed that . Therefore, we have in fast finite-time with guaranteed convergence time estimated as in (63).
Through the abovementioned analysis, we have completed the proof.

4. Simulation

This part gives an example to prove that the proposed control scheme is valid. Consider the second-order pure-feedback nonlinear system with disturbance as follows:where and represent the state variables and and denote the output and input signal, respectively. , , and . The purpose is to establish a controller which can guarantee that all signals remain bounded in the closed-loop system, the system output tracks the reference signal , and the tracking error is convergent.

By using Theorem 1, the virtual control signals and actual controller are expressed as follows:and the adaptive laws are constructed in the following forms:

In the simulation, the initial conditions are set as . Also, the simulation is run by taking the design parameters as .

Figures 1–5 illustrate the simulation results. Figure 1 shows the desired signal and the output . Figure 2 depicts the trajectory of the tracking error . Figure 3 shows the curve of the state . From the abovementioned three figures, we can observe that the states and of (64) are bounded and can tracks under our design controller in Figures 1 and 3. Moreover, the tracking error in Figure 2 is very small and converges into a small neighborhood of zero. Figure 4 displays that the adaptive laws , and are bounded. The trajectory of is depicted in Figure 5, from which it can be seen that is bounded. Through the numerical simulation in Figures 1–5, the proposed control scheme achieves that tracks in a quick and precise way and desired convergence with the control performance.

5. Conclusions

The adaptive fuzzy-based fast finite-time tracking control via the backstepping technique has been developed for nonlinear systems in pure-feedback form with unknown disturbance. The mean value theorem was used to address the nonaffine problem of the pure-feedback systems, and FLSs were applied to approximate packaged unknown nonlinearities. All signals in the closed-loop system are bounded, and the reference signal can be tracked in fast finite-time. Simulation results have been given to prove the effectiveness of the suggested scheme. In this paper, the approximation error of the FLS is not taken into account. The future work will be concentrated on extending the results to more general nonlinear systems.
