Observer-Based Event-Triggered Fuzzy Control for Switched Multi-Agent Systems with State Constraints and Sensor Faults

In this paper, we consider the output feedback event-triggered tracking control problem for a class of switched nonlinear multi-agent systems (MASs) with sensor faults and state constraints. For unknown nonlinear functions in the system, fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate them. To address sensor faults, sensor error compensation coefficients are designed to compensate for the errors caused by sensor faults. Meanwhile, state observer is designed to estimate the unmeasurable states in the system, providing necessary information for control design. Based on directed switching networks containing a directed spanning tree, an event-triggered output feedback controller is designed to enable the MAS to track the leader agent. By constructing a suitable barrier Lyapunov function, the stability of the system is analyzed, and it is proved that the consensus tracking can be achieved without violating the state constraints, the uniform boundedness of all the closed-loop system signals is ensured and the Zeno behavior can be eliminated. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified through a simulation example.

Finite-time event-triggered tracking control for quadcopter attitude systems with zero compensation technology

This paper primarily investigates the event-triggered tracking control problem for quadcopter attitude systems, utilizing finite-time zero compensation technology. Unlike existing research results, a zero compensation technology is proposed to solve non-affine control input problems such as saturation, dead zones, and gaps. The command filtered compensation technology is used to solve ’differential explosion’ and filtering errors. A novel Tanh type filter and a neural network are employed to approximate virtual control signals and account for un-modeled dynamics, respectively. Moreover, the finite-time convergence theory is used to prove that the state, tracking error, and filtered error compensation signals in the entire closed-loop system converge to an arbitrarily small neighborhood of the equilibrium origin. Finally, the advantages of the proposed control algorithm in improving tracking accuracy and reducing communication load were demonstrated through simulation.

Decentralized Event-Triggered Tracking Control for Unmatched Interconnected Systems via Particle Swarm Optimization-Based Adaptive Dynamic Programming.

The problem of the large-scale interconnected system (LSIS) control is prevalent in practical engineering and is becoming increasingly complex. In this article, we propose a novel decentralized event-triggered tracking control (ETTC) strategy for a class of continuous-time nonlinear LSIS with unmatched interconnected terms and asymmetric input constraints. First, auxiliary subsystems are established to address the unmatched cross-linking terms. Next, the dynamics states of the tracking error and the exosystem are combined to construct a nominal augmented subsystem. By employing a nonquadratic performance function, the input-constrained decentralized tracking control problem is transformed into an optimal control problem for the nominal augmented subsystem. A group of independent parameters and event-triggered conditions are designed to save communication bandwidth and computational resources. Subsequently, the critic-only adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) method is used to solve the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation (HJBE) associated with the optimal control problem. To improve training success rate, the weights of the critic neural network (NN) are updated by introducing a particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSOA). The tracking error and the NN weights are proved to be uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB) under the proposed ETTC by using the Lyapunov extension theorem. Finally, the simulation example of an unmatched interconnected system is provided to verify the validity of the proposed decentralized method.

Event-Triggered Backstepping Control of Fractional-Order Chaotic Systems with Dead Zone Via Disturbance Observer

This paper comes up with an adaptive event-triggered tracking control scheme for a kind of fractional-order strict feedback nonlinear systems with actuator dead-zone inputs and uncertain external disturbances. The presented strategy can overcome the defect in standard backstepping control scheme which leads to the “explosion of complexity” problem of virtual signals, and strengthen the transmission efficiency by an event-triggered scheme. An error compensation mechanism is presented for promoting the tracking accuracy and reducing the effect filter error. The designed controller guarantees that the tracking error converges into a small neighborhood near the origin, and all closed-loop signals are bounded. Moreover, Zeno behavior will be avoided. The numerical simulation is given to verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the designed technique.

Neuroadaptive event-triggered tracking control for nonlinear systems with dynamic fault feedback and prescribed time convergence

This paper investigates the problem of event-triggered adaptive prescribed time tracking control for nonlinear systems with combining multiplicative and additive dynamic sensor fault. A simple state observer is designed by fusing fault output and reference signal to estimate unmeasurable states, where the unknown unmeasurable uncertain functions are approximated by neural network technology. Then, the prescribed time performance function is constructed based on the time scale function, and a suitable function transformation is introduced so that the tracking error can reach the desired residual set in the prescribed time, where the initial value of the error can be arbitrarily selected regardless of the prescribed time performance function. Moreover, the desired accuracy and the prescribed time can be specified on request. The designed adaptive event-triggered controller can effectively compensate for the sensor fault in the output feedback control and reduce the communication burden, and the feasibility of the proposed method is verified by the simulation result.

Event-Triggered Adaptive Neural Network Tracking Control for Uncertain Systems With Unknown Input Saturation Based on Command Filters.

This brief presents a modified event-triggered command filter backstepping tracking control scheme for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with unknown input saturation based on the adaptive neural network (NN) technique. First, the virtual control functions are reconstructed to address the uncertainties in subsystems by using command filters. A piecewise continuous function is employed to deal with the unknown input saturation problem. Next, an event-triggered tracking controller is developed by utilizing the adaptive NN technique. Compared with standard NN control schemes based on multiple-function-approximators, our controller only requires a single NN. The closed-loop system stability is analyzed based on the Lyapunov stability theorem, and it is shown that the Zeno behavior is also avoided under the designed event-triggering mechanism. Simulation studies are performed to validate the effectiveness of our controller.

Adaptive event-triggered tracking control for nonlinear systems with prescribed performance: A time-domain mapping approach

This paper proposed an event-triggered adaptive fuzzy prescribed time control strategy for a class of nonlinear systems with uncertain external disturbances and unknown virtual control coefficients under prescribed performance. A novel time-domain mapping technique is proposed to transform the prescribed time tracking control problem into an asymptotic convergence problem. An observer is designed to estimate for the external disturbance and fuzzy approximation error of fuzzy logic systems (FLSs). The problem of “explosion of complexity” is addressed by applying dynamic surface control (DSC) technique to backstepping. An adaptive fuzzy event-triggered strategy is designed using the Lyapunov stability theorem. This strategy ensures that, after time-domain mapping, the tracking error asymptotically converges to zero. Additionally, there is no Zeno behavior and all system signals are bounded. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed scheme is verified through three simulation examples.

Estimator-based neural adaptive event-triggered control for strict-feedback nonlinear systems with incomplete measurements

This article addresses a neural adaptive event-triggered tracking control for a class of strict-feedback nonlinear dynamics with incomplete measurements, which is novel on the research of Cyber-physical Systems. The incomplete measurement problem caused by packet loss, saturation, and other issues during data transmission can lead to the unavailability of system state variables, which can degrade system performance and even lead to instability. To solve these problems, a state estimator for data-losing case and two controllers for normal and data-losing cases are designed utilising event-triggered strategies which can reduce the burden of calculation and data transmission. Radial basis function neural networks are adopted to approximate the unknown nonlinear system functions. A strict stability analysis in probability shows that the control laws for the considered strict-feedback nonlinear system can guarantee all the closed-loop to be uniformly ultimately bounded in mean square. Two examples are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the provided control method.

Adaptive Dynamic Event-Triggered Tracking Control for Uncertain Switched Nonlinear Systems Under State-Dependent Switching.

This article introduces an adaptive dynamic event-triggered technique for addressing the output tracking control problem of uncertain switched nonlinear systems with prescribed performance. First, a switching dynamic event-triggered mechanism (SDETM) is established to alleviate network burden and conserve computational resources. A notable aspect is the inclusion of asynchronous switching between the switching subsystems and controllers. Second, a state-dependent switching law ensuring a dwell-time constraint is designed, which avoids the frequent switching phenomenon within any finite time interval. Third, an SDETM and an adaptive dynamic event-triggered controller are developed to confine the output tracking error within predefined decaying boundaries, while ensuring that all the signals of the closed-loop switched system remain within bounded regions. Finally, the validity and applicability of the developed control scheme are demonstrated through a one-link manipulator example.

Distributed estimation and control over mobile sensor networks with jointly connected topology: Event-triggered approach

This article deals with the problem of distributed event-triggered tracking control in mobile sensor networks (MSNs) with a jointly connected topology (JCT). Two schemes are proposed for linear and Lipschitz nonlinear MSNs to estimate and track a mobile target. The proposed schemes are established using an event-triggered method to avoid continuous exchange of information between sensor nodes. In comparison with the other research under event-triggered communication strategies where states of the target are available, this paper considers that the states of the target are not available and two event-triggered algorithms are established for sensor nodes to estimate and follow the states of the continuous-time targets that can be seen in various real-world applications. Also, the proposed schemes are designed for the JCT with disconnected graphs which means the communication topology of the MSN is not required to be connected for all time instants. By employing the Cauchy convergence criterion and a common Lyapunov function, sufficient conditions are also established to ensure event-based tracking control subject to JCT. The effectiveness of the proposed work is verified by presenting simulation examples.

Event-Triggered Tracking Control for a Class of Nonlinear Systems: A Dynamic Gain Approach

This note presents a dynamic gain approach to the event-triggered tracking control for a class of strict-feedback nonlinear systems. A novel shifting function is designed to make the initial tracking error arbitrarily bounded, which significantly relaxes the requirement on the initial tracking error. To achieve the objective that the tracking error does not exceed the constraint after the pre-specified finite time, a barrier Lyapunov function and a new reduced-order observer are constructed by using the shifting function and the desired tracking signal. Based on the proposed dynamic gain approach, an event-triggered output feedback tracking controller is designed. It is proved that the developed control scheme guarantees that all the closed-loop signals are bounded and the tracking error constraint is strictly obeyed after a specified finite time. Compared with the celebrated backstepping method, the dynamic gain approach does not involve any virtual control variables, which avoids the complicated iterative procedure. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified by an example.

Observer-based fuzzy adaptive event-triggered control for strictly uncertain nonlinear systems with partial state constraints and output dead-zones

This paper delves into the fuzzy adaptive event-triggered tracking control for a certain class of strictly uncertain nonlinear systems subject to partial state constraints as well as output dead-zones. First of all, fuzzy logic systems (FLSs) are utilised to approximate the unpredictable items, a fuzzy adaptive observer is intended to enable state estimation. Subsequently, a type of smooth approximate model is introduced to settle the nondifferentiable phenomenon of output dead-zones. To reduce the computational overhead of the communication operation effectively, an improved event-triggered control strategy including a decreasing hyperbolic tangent function related to dead-zone, is applied to determine the actual control input. In addition, the barrier Lyapunov function (BLF) is fabricated to address the issue of partial state constraint. By theoretical analysis, the reference signal can be precisely tracked by the system output and all closed-loop signals remain uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB). Finally, the constructed controller's effectiveness is validated with two illustrative examples.

Fuzzy Dynamic Event-Triggered Tracking Control for Semilinear Time-Delay Parabolic Systems

In this article, the fuzzy dynamic event-triggered tracking control problem of semilinear parabolic systems (SLPSs) with time-varying delay is investigated. Firstly, T-S fuzzy partial differential equation (PDE) models are introduced to describe the SLPSs. Secondly, a less conservative and more general fuzzy dynamic event-triggered strategy (DETS) is proposed to reduce communication consumption and avoid unnecessary continuous signal monitoring. Since the dynamic threshold is closely related to the currently sampled signal and the latest successfully transmitted signal, it can be promptly dynamically adjusted. In addition, on the basis of a reasonable assumption, a novel linear matrix inequality (LMI) relax technique is introduced to deal with the mismatched premise variables between the fuzzy systems and the fuzzy controller. By constructing the appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii candidate functional (LKCF), the criteria that the SLPSs can asymptotically track the target systems is derived, and the desired dynamic event-triggered control (DETC) gains can be obtained by solving a set of LMIs. The DETS reduces effectively communication resource consumption. Finally, the control problem of temperature distribution of catalytic rod in practical engineering application is given to verify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed control scheme.
