Practical fixed‐time composite‐learning control for full‐state constraint strict‐feedback non‐linear systems: A dynamic regressor extension and mixing based approach

Abstract

AbstractA practical fixed‐time composite learning control scheme, by combining dynamic regressor extension and mixing (DREM) parameter identification algorithm and adaptive dynamic surface control (DSC) technique, is proposed for a class of strict‐feedback non‐linear systems subjected to linear‐in‐parameters uncertainties and full‐state constraint. To address the problem of state constraint, a non‐linear transformation function is introduced to convert the originally constrained non‐linear system into an unconstrained one. Meanwhile, the hyperbolic tangent function is employed to avoid singularity issues that often appeared in the traditional fixed‐time (FXT) control designs. In order to relax the requirement of persistency of excitation condition, a modified FXT‐DREM parameter identification approach with an interval excitation condition is constructed by introducing a three‐layer transformation technique derived from the classical DREM algorithm. Then, the modified FXT‐DREM parameter identification algorithm is seamlessly integrated into the adaptive DSC framework, resulting in a composite‐learning control scheme. By employing Lyapunov stability analysis, the fixed‐time convergence of both the parameter estimation error and the trajectory tracking error is proved. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed design is demonstrated through simulation test.
