Nonsingular Practical Fixed-Time Adaptive Output Feedback Control of MIMO Nonlinear Systems.

Abstract

This article studies the nonsingular fixed-time control problem of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) nonlinear systems with unmeasured states for the first time. A state observer is designed to solve the problem that system states cannot be measured. Due to the existence of the unknown system nonlinear dynamics, neural networks (NNs) are introduced to approximate them. Then, through the combination of adaptive backstepping recursive technology and adding power integration technology, a nonsingular fixed-time adaptive output feedback control algorithm is proposed, which introduces a filter to avoid the complicated derivation process of the virtual control function. According to the fixed-time Lyapunov stability theory, the practical fixed-time stability of the closed-loop system is proven, which means that all signals of the closed-loop system remain bounded in a fixed time under the proposed algorithm. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by the numerical simulation and practical simulation.
