Abstract
SUMMARYThe exponential output tracking problem for a class of single‐input, single‐output uncertain nonlinear systems, including systems with extended matching unstructured uncertainties and without a well‐defined global relative degree, is addressed. Conditions on the uncertain system dynamics are derived, which allow us to design a state‐feedback learning control achieving semi‐global exponential output tracking of sufficiently smooth and periodic reference signals of known period, while guaranteeing ℒ︁2 and ℒ︁∞ transient performances during the learning phase. The application of the proposed learning approach to the position tracking control problem for uncertain permanent magnet step motors with non‐sinusoidal flux distribution and uncertain position‐dependent load torque allows us to provide a solution to a yet unsolved problem.
