Composite RISE control for vehicle-mounted servo system with unknown modeling uncertainties and unknown time-varying disturbances

In light of the problem of trajectory tracking control in vehicle servo systems with system model uncertainty and external time-varying disturbance, an effective trajectory tracking control method that can handle system model uncertainty and external time-varying disturbances is proposed. To achieve this goal, a novel composite robust integral of the sign of the error (RISE) control method is introduced that combines a multi-layer neural network and an extended state observer. Specifically, multi-layer neural networks are utilized to approximate the uncertainty of the system model, while an extended state observer is employed to estimate the fitting near-error and the external time-varying interference, which are used as feedforward compensation. Finally, the RISE controller is implemented as a robust feedback controller. By applying Lyapunov theory for stability analysis and conducting experiments, the results demonstrate that the proposed approach exhibits excellent performance and robustness in addressing the uncertainties and disturbances involved in trajectory tracking control for vehicle servo systems.

Robust integral of neural network and precision motion control of electrical-optical gyro-stabilized platform with unknown input dead-zones

Parametric uncertainty associated with unmodeled disturbance always exist in physical electrical-optical gyro-stabilized platform systems, and poses great challenges to the controller design. Moreover, the existence of actuator deadzone nonlinearity makes the situation more complicated. By constructing a smooth dead-zone inverse, the control law consisting of the robust integral of a neural network (NN) output plus sign of the tracking error feedback is proposed, in which adaptive law is synthesized to handle parametric uncertainty and RISE robust term to attenuate unmodeled disturbance. In order to reduce the measure noise, a desired compensation method is utilized in controller design, in which the model compensation term depends on the reference signal only. By mainly activating an auxiliary robust control component for pulling back the transient escaped from the neural active region, a multi-switching robust neuro adaptive controller in the neural approximation domain, which can achieve globally uniformly ultimately bounded (GUUB) tracking stability of servo systems recently. An asymptotic tracking performance in the presence of unknown dead-zone, parametric uncertainties and various disturbances, which is vital for high accuracy tracking, is achieved by the proposed robust adaptive backstepping controller. Extensively comparative experimental results are obtained to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
