Event-triggered adaptive fuzzy tracking control of nonlinear MIMO systems

This paper addresses the problem of an adaptive fuzzy event-triggered control (ETC) for uncertain multi-input and multi-output nonlinear systems. To reduce the communication burden of the network control systems, a novel state-dependent event-triggering condition is designed to decide when to update the controllers. By combining the backstepping and event-trigged techniques, the adaptive fuzzy ETC strategies are developed and the resulting closed-loop system is semi-global bounded. Finally, the analytical results are substantiated using simulation studies.
