Low-Complexity Fuzzy Neural Control of Constrained Waverider Vehicles via Fragility-Free Prescribed Performance Approach

Abstract

In this article, we propose a concise fuzzy neural control framework for Waverider Vehicles with input constraints, while the spurred prescribed performance can be guaranteed, and the challenging fragility problem associated with the existing prescribed performance control (PPC) is avoided. Unlike the existing control protocols without considering computational costs, in this study, the low-complexity fuzzy neural approximation is combined with simple performance functions, which reduces the complexity burden and improves the practicability. Then, in order to handle the adverse effect of the actuator saturation on the control performance, bounded-input-bounded-state stable systems are developed to stabilize the closed-loop control system based on bounded compensations. Specially, flexible adjustment terms are exploited to modify the developed simple performance functions, while fragility-free prescribed performance is achieved for tracking errors, and moreover the fragility defect of the existing PPC is remedied. Finally, the efficiency and superiority of the design are verified via compared simulations.
