Abstract:

Adaptive robust universal back-stepping control is presented for a class of uncertain non-affine systems with state and input constraints. The non-affine system is transformed to a time-varying system with a linear structure using the mean value theorem. The interval of time-varying uncertain parameters is calculated by considering all constraints. To handle the state constraints, a nonlinear mapping technique that maps the constrained states to a real number set is developed. Furthermore, bounded time-varying parameters and external disturbance are estimated using adaptive algorithms with projection. The estimation error is compensated by using a robust feedback technique. The controller is designed by combining back-stepping with a hyperbolic tangent function and a Nussbaum function. It can deal with the problems of input saturation and possible controller singularity caused by unknown control direction. Based on the Lyapunov stability theorem and the decoupled back-stepping method, semi-global stability of the close-loop system is proved. Simulation results show feasibility and validity of the proposed control schemes.
