Abstract
This paper presents a new composite robust controller for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems through backstepping method and disturbance observer (DOB) technique. By designing a generalized disturbance observer (GDOB), the mismatched/matched uncertainty is estimated and compensated at each backstepping step. By virtue of the proposed GDOB, the proposed controller only requires the lumped uncertainties are differentiable and the higher-order derivatives are bounded. With the help of GDOB, the high-gain backstepping controller is also avoided completely. Asymptotical stability of the closed-loop system is established using direct Lyapunov method. An illustrative example of missile autopilot design is given and simulations are carried out to validate the proposed method.
