Adaptive fuzzy command filtering control for nonlinear MIMO systems with full state constraints and unknown control direction

In this paper, the command-filter-based adaptive control strategy is proposed for a class of unknown nonlinear multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems with full state constraints and unknown con-trol direction, whose unknown nonlinear function is approximated by the fuzzy logic system (FLS). First, the fuzzy logic system (FLS) act as the universal approximator of the unknown nonlinear function and the command-filtered backstepping control method is utilized to handle the difficulty induced by the explosion of differentiation, as well as the compensating signals are designed to make up for the command filter error. Besides, the appropriate barrier Lyapunov function and the Nussbaum-type func-tions are employed to deal with the constraints violation and the unknown direction control gains, respectively. It is proved that the practical tracking performance of the system can be achieved with the designed protocols and all signals in the closed-loop system are semiglobal uniformly ultimately bounded. Finally, the simulation example is performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed con-trol strategy. CO 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
