Adaptive fuzzy finite‐time fault‐tolerant control of nonlinear systems with state constraints and input quantization

Abstract

SummaryThis article concentrates on an adaptive finite‐time fault‐tolerant fuzzy tracking control problem for nonstrict feedback nonlinear systems with input quantization and full‐state constraints. By utilizing the fuzzy logic systems and less adjustable parameters method, the unknown nonlinear functions are addressed in each step process. In addition, a dynamic surface control technique combined with fuzzy control is introduced to tackle the variable separation problem. The problem for the effect of quantization and unlimited number of actuator faults is tackled by a damping term with smooth function in the intermediate control law. Finite‐time stability is achieved by combining barrier Lyapunov functions and backstepping method. The finite‐time controller is designed such that all the responses of the systems are semiglobal practical finite‐time stable and ensured to remain in the predefined compact sets while tracking error converges to a small neighborhood of the origin in finite time. Finally, simulation examples are utilized to testify the validity of the investigated strategy.
