Event-Triggered Based Trajectory Tracking Control of Under-Actuated Unmanned Surface Vehicle With State and Input Quantization

Event-triggered adaptive fuzzy trajectory tracking control of unmanned surface vehicle with time-varying output constraints and input quantization.

This paper discusses the course tracking control of unmanned surface vehicles with actuator input quantization and an event-triggered mechanism. The system control laws are designed based on the backstepping method, combining dynamic surface control technology to mitigate the computational complexity expansion of virtual control laws. A fuzzy logic system can be used to approximate the uncertainties in the control system. The control system’s control inputs are quantized by using uniform quantizers. Then, the event-triggered adaptive fuzzy quantization control method is introduced, which can reduce the frequency of control actions and effectively reduce the communication burden. The stability of the control system is rigorously proven using Lyapunov stability theory, ensuring that all signals in the closed-loop system remain bounded. Finally, simulation tests are used to show the algorithm’s efficiency and usefulness.

SummaryThis paper studies the problem of adaptive fuzzy asymptotic tracking control for multiple input multiple output nonlinear systems in nonstrict‐feedback form. Full state constraints, input quantization, and unknown control direction are simultaneously considered in the systems. By using the fuzzy logic systems, the unknown nonlinear functions are identified. A modified partition of variables is introduced to handle the difficulty caused by nonstrict‐feedback structure. In each step of the backstepping design, the symmetric barrier Lyapunov functions are designed to avoid the breach of the state constraints, and the issues of overparametrization and unknown control direction are settled via introducing two compensation functions and the property of Nussbaum function, respectively. Furthermore, an adaptive fuzzy asymptotic tracking control strategy is raised. Based on Lyapunov stability analysis, the developed control strategy can effectually ensure that all the system variables are bounded, and the tracking errors asymptotically converge to zero. Eventually, simulation results are supplied to verify the feasibility of the proposed scheme.

This paper investigates the problem of adaptive fuzzy control on the basis of an event-triggered mechanism for nonlinear strict-feedback systems with time-varying external disturbances and virtual control coefficients in the presence of actuator failures. Virtual control coefficients are correlated with the designed adaptive law and control signal. In the backstepping technique procedure, fuzzy logic systems are utilized to approximate an unknown nonlinear function, and the tuning function is implemented to cope with the destabilizing problem of the control design. To save communication resources, an adaptive fuzzy event-triggered control strategy is developed to update the control input when the triggering condition is satisfied. Then, all of the closed-loop signals can remain semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded. The Zeno behavior can be excluded. Finally, a numerical example and a real system are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

This paper presents a theoretical study on a model-reference adaptive fuzzy logic controller for vector-controlled permanent magnet AC servomotor drives. In the proposed system, fuzzy logic is used to implement the direct controller as well as the adaptation mechanism. The operation of the direct fuzzy controller and the fuzzy logic based adaptation mechanism is studied. The control performance of the adaptive fuzzy controller is evaluated by simulation for various operating conditions. The results are compared with that provided by a nonadaptive fuzzy controller. The implementation of proposed adaptive fuzzy controller is also discussed.

Research on A Fuzzy Adaptive PID Control Method for Four Rotor UAV Control System With the continuous improvement of national living standards, people have higher and higher requirements for the reliability of power supply. The emergence of unmanned aerial vehicle inspection technology provides a new idea to solve the contradiction between the increasing equipment scale and the increasing inspection requirements. However, at present, the stability of the traditional proportion integration differentiation (PID) control system of the four rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is not high enough. During the inspection, there are accidents of drones hitting power equipment from time to time. In view of the above problems, this paper studies the fuzzy adaptive PID control method to support the stable flight of four rotor UAV. The principle of fuzzy control is analyzed. The fuzzy control method and PID control method are deeply integrated. A fuzzy adaptive PID control system is designed. The universe and membership function of the relevant control parameters of the system are formulated. The tuning rules of fuzzy adaptive PID control system are formulated. Finally, the improved control system is simulated. The simulation results show that the fuzzy adaptive PID control algorithm can effectively improve the stability, reliability and emergency ability of UAV. This method can effectively improve the adaptability of UAV to perform complex missions in complex environments. The research results have guiding significance for expanding the application field of UAV.

A new adaptive fuzzy sliding-mode control (FSMC) scheme was proposed, which incorporated the fuzzy logic into sliding-mode control using fuzzy logic to approximate the equivalent control and the upper bound of uncertainty which involved the disturbance and approximation error, thus the influence of modeling error was reduced and the gain of sliding-mode control part was more fitting, such that the chattering effects could be alleviated . Besides, inspired by the thought of fully tuned RBF neural networks, a fully tuned fuzzy logic was proposed which enhanced the approximating ability of fuzzy logic system. Lyapunov stability theorem was used to prove the stability of the system and the adaptive laws were deduced. Finally, simulation results of some BTT missile were included to illustrate the effectiveness of the adaptive fuzzy sliding-mode control scheme.

Large space truss structure is widely used in spacecrafts. The vibration of this kind of structure will cause some serious problems. For instance, it will disturb the work of the payloads which are supported on the truss, even worse, it will deactivate the spacecrafts. Therefore, it is highly in need of executing vibration control for large space truss structure. Large space intelligent truss system (LSITS) is not a normal truss structure but a complex truss system consisting of common rods and active rods, and there are at least one actuator and one sensor in each active rod. One of the key points in the vibration control for LSITS is the location assignment of actuators and sensors. The positions of actuators and sensors will directly determine the properties of the control system, such as stability, controllability, observability, etc. In this paper, placement optimization of actuators and sensors (POAS) and decentralized adaptive fuzzy control methods are presented to solve the vibration control problem. The electro-mechanical coupled equations of the active rod are established, and the optimization criterion which does not depend upon control methods is proposed. The optimal positions of actuators and sensors in LSITS are obtained by using genetic algorithm (GA). Furthermore, the decentralized adaptive fuzzy vibration controller is designed to control LSITS. The LSITS dynamic equations with considering those remaining modes are derived. The adaptive fuzzy control scheme is improved via sliding control method. One T-typed truss structure is taken as an example and a demonstration experiment is carried out. The experimental results show that the GA is reliable and valid for placement optimization of actuators and sensors, and the adaptive fuzzy controller can effectively suppress the vibration of LSITS without control spillovers and observation spillovers.

Robust adaptive fuzzy filters output feedback control of strict-feedback nonlinear systemsIn this paper, an adaptive fuzzy robust output feedback control approach is proposed for a class of single input single output (SISO) strict-feedback nonlinear systems without measurements of states. The nonlinear systems addressed in this paper are assumed to possess unstructured uncertainties, unmodeled dynamics and dynamic disturbances, where the unstructured uncertainties are not linearly parameterized, and no prior knowledge of their bounds is available. In recursive design, fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate unstructured uncertainties, and K-filters are designed to estimate unmeasured states. By combining backstepping design and a small-gain theorem, a stable adaptive fuzzy output feedback control scheme is developed. It is proven that the proposed adaptive fuzzy control approach can guarantee the all the signals in the closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded, and the output of the controlled system converges to a small neighborhood of the origin. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is illustrated by a simulation example and some comparisons.

Backstepping method is a successful approach to deal with the systems in strict-feedback form. However, for networked control systems, the discontinuous virtual law caused by state quantization introduces huge challenges for its applicability. In this article, a quantized adaptive robust control approach in backsetpping framework is developed in this article for networked strict-feedback nonlinear systems with both state and input quantization. In order to prove the efficiency of the designed control scheme, a novel form of Lyapunov candidate function was constructed in the process of analyzing the stability, which is applicable for the systems with nondifferentiable virtual control law. In particular, the state and input quantizers can be in any form as long as they meet the sector-bound condition. The theoretic result shows that the tracking error is determined by the pregiven constants and quantization errors, which are also verified by the simulation results.

In this paper, we study the application of fuzzy set theory, genetic algorithms and rough set theory techniques to the control of the rectifier. A fuzzy adaptive control scheme with the aid of rough set theory via genetic algorithms (GAs) finding the center parameters in place of the classical control is proposed. On the one hand, genetic algorithm gets optimal parameters of an accurate domain model, which tunes the scaling factors of fuzzy adaptive control but is hardly established in a non-liner system. On the other hand, fuzzy adaptive control deals with the dynamics and complexity of responses from rectifier of a HVDC system in the operation points, by adjusting its control parameters with the aid of rough tuner adaptively. Our study includes a brief introduction to fuzzy control and rough set algorithms, both theory and application. We also evaluate the performance of rough fuzzy control by simulation in the paper. The focus of our experiments is on the constant current control in rectifier side of HVDC system. The result shows there are many improvements offered by the fuzzy control scheme based on rough set theory in comparison with the only fuzzy control scheme in the rectifier side of HVDC system.

This article investigates the event-triggered containment control problem for stochastic nonlinear multiagent systems with unknown Bouc–Wen hysteresis input. Based on the backstepping technique, an adaptive fuzzy event-triggered containment control scheme is proposed, which is conditionally updated only at the sampled instants. Fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions. In addition, a Nussbaum function is utilized to eliminate the effect of unknown hysteresis. Moreover, an event-triggered mechanism is introduced to reduce the communication burden. By using stochastic Lyapunov stability theory and graph theory, it is proved that all signals in the closed-loop system are semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded. Meanwhile, all the followers’ outputs converge to the dynamic convex hull spanned by the dynamic leaders. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is illustrated by some simulation results.

In this article, an event-triggered practical fixed-time containment control issue for stochastic nonlinear multiagent systems is addressed. The event-triggering mechanism is designed for the controller update which is reduced update frequency. In combination with the backstepping technique and fuzzy logic systems, an adaptive fuzzy containment control strategy is developed for stochastic uncertain multiagent systems. By adopting the protocol, an adaptive containment controller is devised, which can ensure that the containment errors gather to a small range in fixed time. Finally, simulation results for the practical example demonstrate the correctness of the proposed scheme.

In this paper, temperature monitoring of sterilizing equipment system was established with the help of fuzzy and self tuning Adaptive fuzzy logic controller designed in Lab VIEW software. It combines the advantages of both fuzzy logic and self tuning Adaptive fuzzy logic controller. The implementation attempts to rectify the errors between the measured value and the set point which helps to achieve efficient temperature control. The Adaptive fuzzy controller uses defined rules to control the system based on the current values of input variables and temperature errors. The simulation results presented in order to evaluate the proposed method.
