Abstract
In this article, saturation-tolerant prescribed control (SPC) is investigated for a class of multiinput-multioutput (MIMO) nonlinear systems. The key challenge lies in how to guarantee both input and performance constraints simultaneously for nonlinear systems especially under external disturbance and unknown control directions. We propose concise finite-time tunnel prescribed performance (FTPP) for better tracking performance, which features tight allowable set and user-specified settling time. To comprehensively tackle the conflict between the above two constraints, an auxiliary system is designed to explore their interconnections instead of neglecting their contradictions. By introducing its generated signals into FTPP, the obtained saturation-tolerant prescribed performance (SPP) has the ability to degrade or recover the performance boundaries in the light of different saturation conditions. Consequently, the developed SPC, together with nonlinear disturbance observer (NDO), can effectively improve the robustness and reduce the conservatism against external disturbances, input, and performance constraints. Finally, comparative simulations are presented to showcase these theoretical findings.
