Finite-time path following control for a stratospheric airship with input saturation and error constraint

This paper addresses the finite-time path following control problem for an under-actuated stratospheric airship with input saturation, error constraint, and external disturbances. To handle the adverse effect of input saturation, anti-windup compensators are employed and finite-time convergence of the saturated control solution is established. Error constraints of airship position and attitude are handled by incorporating a tan-type barrier Lyapunov function (TBLF) in guidance and attitude control schemes. Backstepping design is presented with the anti-windup compensators, the TBLF, and nonlinear disturbance observers which estimate the external disturbances. Stability analysis shows that the tracking errors of the airship position converge into a small set around zero within finite-time, the constrained requirements on the airship position and attitude are not violated during operation, and all closed-loop signals are guaranteed to be uniformly ultimately bounded. Compared with the conventional control scheme, simulation results illustrate that the proposed finite-time controller offers a faster convergence rate and a higher path following accuracy for the stratospheric airship.     

Robust Finite-time Attitude Tracking Control of Rigid Spacecraft Under Actuator Saturation

This paper investigates the robust finite-time attitude tracking control problem for rigid spacecraft considering the modeling uncertainty, external disturbance and actuator saturation. An auxiliary system is proposed to directly compensate for the saturated control input. First, the basic controller is formulated based on the fast nonsingular terminal sliding mode surface (FNTSMS), the fast-TSM-type reaching law and the auxiliary system in the presence of upper bounded external disturbance. Then, when facing system uncertainty which consists of both modeling uncertainty and external disturbance and has upper bounded first derivative, the extended state observer (ESO) is associated with the first controller to improve the robustness of control system. Furthermore, to handle more general system uncertainty which is upper bounded by a polynomial function of the closed-loop system states, a continuous adaptive controller is designed to compensate for the total system uncertainty on line. The proposed controllers are able to deal with system uncertainty, input singularity and actuator saturation, while simultaneously providing fast finite-time convergence speed for the control system. And the problems of complex parameters selection process and repeated differentiations of nonlinear functions can be avoided. Rigorous stability analyses are given via the Lyapunov stability theory and digital simulations are conducted to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed controllers.

A memristor-based architecture combining memory and image processing

Image processing is a type of memory-access-intensive application and is applied in many fields.Logic operations are very simple ones in image processing.During these operations,memory access takes a majority of the total time consumed,which puts a great pressure on memory access speed and bandwidth.However,in traditional von Neumann architecture,memory access is the inherent bottleneck of the system;that is,the speed of memory’s data supply is far lower than the data request of processor.Memristor is considered to be the fourth circuit element after resistor,capacitor and inductor.It has the capacity of both processing and memory,which supplies a new idea for solving the"memory wall"problem.In this paper,memristor is used to build an architecture combining computing and memory,where the memory has the ability to handle some simple image processing operations.This architecture can reduce readings and writings of memory effectively,which saves memory bandwidth thus improving the efficiency of the system.Logic operations of images are considered in this paper to validate the architecture.The experimental results and theoretical analysis indicate that the architecture can reduce memory access effectively.     

Adaptive neural output feedback finite-time command filtered backstepping control for nonlinear systems with full-state constraints

In this paper, an adaptive neural finite-time control method via barrier Lyapunov function, command filtered backstepping, and output feedback is proposed to solve the tracking problem of uncertain high-order nonlinear systems with full-state constraints and input saturation. By utilizing the neural network (NN) to approximate unknown nonlinear functions, the finite-time command filters are used to filtering the virtual control signals and get the intermediate control signals in a finite time in the backstepping process. Because there are errors between the output of finite-time command filters and the virtual control signals, the error compensation signals are added to eliminate the influence of filtering errors. Based on the proposed control scheme, the states of the system can be constrained in the predetermined region, all signals in the system are bounded in finite time, and the tracking error can converge to the desired region in finite time. At last, a simulation example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed control method.     

Boundary control for a flexible string system with input saturation constraint

In this study, we focus on the boundary control problem for a vibrating string system with saturated input under the condition of external disturbances. Based on the backstepping approach, a boundary vibration control scheme is proposed to globally stabilize the string around the equilibrium position. A smooth hyperbolic tangent function is exploited to restrict the control input, an auxiliary system and a Nussbaum function are adopted to cope with the nonlinear term derived from the input saturation, and a disturbance observer is employed to tackle the boundary disturbance. The developed controller can assure the convergence of the closed‐loop system state to a small neighbourhood of zero. By the appropriate choice of control design parameters, numerical simulation is conducted to show the effectiveness of the derived control.     

Adaptive nonlinear information fusion preview control for autonomous surface vessels subject to measurement noises and unknown input saturations

This study presents an adaptive nonlinear information fusion preview control (NIFPC) method for trajectory tracking of autonomous surface vessels (ASVs) subject to system uncertainty, measurement noise, and unknown input saturations. The NIFPC is developed based on the nonlinear information fusion estimation methodology, in which the system's future reference trajectory information, noise information, performance index requirements, and system dynamic model are all transformed into information equations related to control input, and then the current control action is obtained by fusing these previewed future information via the nonlinear information fusion optimal estimation. In order to avoid the unknown input saturation constraints, a fuzzy asymmetric saturated approximator (FASA) is designed and integrated into the controller, where the fuzzy logic system (FLS) is used to adaptively adjust the key boundary parameters of the approximator. As a result, the negative effects caused by system uncertainty and measurement noise can be effectively suppressed, while the completely unknown input saturation constraints in the system actuator are guaranteed not to be violated. The convergence of the tracking errors of the closed-loop system is guaranteed via Lyapunov stability theory. Numerical simulation results have been provided to demonstrate the satisfactory performance of the proposed control scheme.

Nonsingular terminal sliding mode based finite-time control for spacecraft attitude tracking

This paper studies finite-time attitude tracking control problem of a rigid spacecraft system with external disturbances and inertia uncertainties. Firstly, a new finite-time attitude tracking control law is designed using nonsingular terminal sliding mode concepts. In the absence and presence of external disturbances and inertia uncertainties, this controller can drive the attitude and angular velocity tracking errors to reach zero in finite time. Secondly, a finite-time disturbance observer is introduced to estimate the disturbance, and a composite controller is developed which consists of a feedback control based on nonsingular terminal sliding mode method and compensation term based on finite-time disturbance observer. Finite-time convergence of attitude tracking errors and the stability of the closed-loop system is ensured by the Lyapunov approach. Numerical simulations on attitude control of spacecraft are also given to demonstrate the performance of the proposed controllers.     

Adaptive dynamic surface control using disturbance observer for nonlinear systems with input saturation and output constraints

An adaptive dynamic surface control (DSC) approach using fuzzy approximation and nonlinear disturbance observer (NDO) for uncertain nonlinear systems in the presence of input saturation, output constraint and unknown external disturbances is proposed in this paper. The issue of input saturation is addressed by introducing a lower bound assumption on the approximation function of saturation. The output constraint is handled by introducing an appropriate barried Lyapunov function. The nonlinear disturbance observer (NDO) is employed to estimate the unknown unmatched disturbances. It is manifested that the ultimately bounded convergence of all the variables in the closed-loop system is guaranteed and the tracking error can be made farely small by tuning the design parameters. Finally, two simulation examples illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed approach.     

Finite-time tracking control for strict-feedback nonlinear systems with full state constraints

In this paper, an adaptive finite-time controller is considered for a class of strict-feedback nonlinear systems with parametric uncertainties and full state constraints. Novel tan-type barrier Lyapunov functions are proposed to ensure the boundedness of the fictitious state tracking errors. A new tuning function is constructed to eliminate the effect of uncertainties by using the extended finite-time stability condition. It is shown that under the proposed backstepping control scheme the finite-time convergence of system output tracking error to a small set around zero is realised and the full state constraints are not violated. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed finite-time control scheme.

Prescribed performance control of strict‐feedback systems under actuation saturation and output constraint via event‐triggered approach

In this work, we study the performance‐guaranteed event‐triggered control for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems in strict‐feedback form subject to input saturation and output constraint. The prescribed performance (ie, convergence rate, tracking error accuracy) and output constraint are firstly taken into account for nonlinear systems with event‐triggered input. By blending a speed transformation into the barrier Lyapunov function and introducing an intermediate variable to the system, two different event‐triggered control schemes are proposed for systems with and without saturation, respectively. Each scheme has two rules to determine triggering time sequences, one for control signal updating and the other for control signal transmission with the latter being a subsequence of the first. Meanwhile, it is proved that the tracking error converges to a preset compact set around zero at the prescribed decay rate and the output is maintained within a given bound at all times. Simulation verification also confirms the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
