In this paper, the problem of the event-triggered optimal control for a class of strict-feedback nonlinear systems with external disturbances is investigated. Firstly, by introducing proper low-pass filters to the steps of backstepping design, the problem of “jump of the error surfaces” is avoided. What's more, it facilitates the design of a fuzzy hybrid-mode-triggered feedforward controller, which aims to transform the original controlled nonlinear strict-feedback system into an equivalent nonlinear system in affine form. Secondly, by utilizing the adaptive dynamic programming theory, an event-triggered feedback controller is developed for the equivalent affine nonlinear system. Differing from the existing methods, the real control input consists of two event-triggered terms, which can be updated synchronously under the proposed composite error-based triggering condition. Moreover, it is proven that all the closed-loop signals are bounded. At last, by taking a second-order nonlinear system and missile integrated guidance and control system as examples, simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
