Considering attitude tracking of such spacecraft with unknown inertial parameters and unknown disturbances, an event-triggered adaptive backstepping controller is designed in this paper. Particularly, a switching threshold strategy is employed to design the event-triggering mechanism. By introducing a new linear time-varying model, a smooth function, an integrable auxiliary signal and a bound estimation approach, the impacts of the network-induced error and the disturbances are effectively compensated for and Zeno phenomenon is successfully avoided. It is shown that all signals of the closed-loop system are globally uniformly bounded and both the attitude tracking error and the angular velocity tracking error converge to zero. Compared with conventional control schemes, the proposed scheme significantly reduces the communication burden while providing stable and accurate response for attitude maneuvers. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.展开更多

文摘This paper is concerned with adaptive consensus tracking control of nonlinear multi-agent systems with actuator faults and unknown nonidentical control directions under double semi-Markovian switching topologies.Considering the complex working environment and the stability differences in communication links between leaders and followers,a double semi-Markov process is first introduced to describe the random switching of communication topologies in the leader-follower structure.In order to address challenges from the unknown nonidentical control directions and partial loss of effectiveness actuator faults,a completely independent parameter is introduced into the Nussbaum function to overcome the inherent obstacle of mutual cancellation and avoid the rapid growth rate.Considering only the state information of agents is transmitted among the agents,an adaptive distributed fault-tolerant consensus tracking control is proposed based on the double semi-Markovian switching topologies using the designed Nussbaum function.Furthermore,the stability of the closed-loop nonlinear multi-agent systems is analyzed using contradiction argument and Lyapunov theorem,from which the asymptotic consensus tracking in mean square sense can be obtained.A numerical simulation example is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

文摘In this paper,a practical method named linear active disturbance rejection control(LADRC)with adaptive tuning is proposed for attitude control of small-scale unmanned helicopter.The proposed method accounts for both external disturbances and internal dynamic uncertainties,as well as parameter deviations arising from parameter uncertainty,while maintaining a relatively small number of adjustable parameters.Furthermore,it addresses the limitation that conventional active disturbance rejection control methods cannot be rigorously analyzed for stability.The total disturbance of unmanned helicopter is estimated and compensated by designed LADRC.The introduction of adaptive control realizes online parameter tuning,which eliminates parameter deviation and further improves control precision.Moreover,it also provides a novel idea to prove the stability of controller,so that it can be analyzed by Lyapunov function.Finally,the anti-disturbance performance and effectiveness of proposed method are verified by numerical simulation.
文摘This article presents an adaptive intelligent control strategy applied to a lumped-parameter evaporator model,i.e.,a simplified dynamic representation treating the evaporator as a single thermal node with uniform temperature distribution,suitable for control design due to its balance between physical fidelity and computational simplicity.The controller uses a wavelet-based neural proportional,integral,derivative(PID)controller with IIR filtering(infinite impulse response).The dynamic model captures the essential heat and mass transfer phenomena through a nonlinear energy balance,where the cooling capacity“Qevap”is expressed as a non-linear function of the compressor frequency and the temperature difference,specifically,Q_(evap)=k_(1)u(T_(in)−T_(e))with u as compressor frequency,Te evaporator temperature,and Tin inlet fluid temperature.The operating conditions of the system,in general terms,focus on the following variables,the overall thermal capacity is 1000 J/K,typical for small-capacity heat exchangers,The mass flow is 0.05 kg/s,typical for secondary liquid cooling circuits,the overall loss coefficient of 50 W/K that corresponds to small evaporators with partial insulation,the temperatures(inlet)of 10℃and the temperature of environment of 25℃,thermal load of 200 W that corresponds to a small-scaled air conditioning applications.To handle system nonlinearities and improve control performance,aMorlet wavelet-based neural network(Wavenet)is used to dynamically adjust the PID gains online.An IIR filter is incorporated to smooth the adaptive gains,improving stability and reducing oscillations.In contrast to prior wavelet-or neural-adaptive PID controllers in HVAC applications,which typically adjust gains without explicit filtering or not tailored to evaporator dynamics,this work introduces the first PID–Wavenet scheme augmented with an IIR-based stabilization layer,specifically designed to address the combined challenges of nonlinear evaporator behavior,gain oscillation,and real-time implementability.The proposed controller(PID-Wavenet+IIR)is implemented and validated inMATLAB/Simulink,demonstrating superior performance compared to a conventional PID tuned using Simulink’s auto-tuning function.Key results include a reduction in settling time from 13.3 to 8.2 s,a reduction in overshoot from 3.5%to 0.8%,a reduction in steady-state error from 0.12℃ to 0.02℃and a 13%reduction in energy overall consumption.The controller also exhibits greater robustness and adaptability under varying thermal loads.This explicit integration of wavelet-driven adaptation with IIR-filtered gain shaping constitutes the main methodological contribution and novelty of the work.These findings validate the effectiveness of the wavelet-based adaptive approach for advanced thermal management in refrigeration and HVAC systems,with potential applications in controlling variable-speed compressors,liquid chillers,and compact cooling units.

文摘This paper investigates the platoon control of heterogeneous vehicular cyber-physical systems(VCPSs) subject to external disturbances by using neural network and uniformly quantized communication data.To reduce the adverse effects of quantization errors on system performance,a coupling sliding mode surface is established for each following vehicle.The radial basis function(RBF) neural networks are employed to approximate the unknown external disturbances.Then,a novel platoon control law is proposed for cooperative tracking in which each following vehicle only uses the uniformly quantized data of the neighboring vehicles.And the designed controllers in this paper are fully distributed due to the fact that the selection of each vehicle's controller parameters is independent of the entire communication topology.The string stability of VCPSs in the entire control process is ensured rather than only ensuring the string stability after the sliding mode surface converges to zero.Compared with the existing controller design methods and quantization mechanisms,the neural adaptive sliding-mode platoon controller proposed in this paper is superior in performances including tracking errors,driving comfort and fuel economy.Numerical simulations illustrate the effectiveness and superiority of the designed control strategy.

文摘Realizing optimal control performance for continuum robots(CRs) poses huge challenges on traditional modelbased optimal control approaches due to their high degrees of freedom,complex nonlinear dynamics and soft continuum morphologies which are difficult to explicitly model.This paper proposes a model-free adaptive optimal control algorithm(ADAPT)for CRs.In our strategy,we consider CRs as a class of nonlinear continuous-time dynamical systems in the state space,wherein the position of the end-effector is considered as the state and the input torque is mapped as the control input.Then,the optimized Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman(HJB) equation is derived by optimal control principles,and subsequently solved by the proposed ADAPT algorithm without requiring knowledge of the original system dynamics.Under some mild assumptions,the global stability and convergence of the closed-loop control approach are guaranteed.Several simulation experiments are conducted on a magnetic CR(MCR) to demonstrate the practicality and effectiveness of the ADAPT algorithm.
文摘The increasing demand for artillery firepower,coupled with the growing size of gun barrels,imposes significant challenges on servo system performance.To address these challenges while ensuring fast and stable response,this paper proposes an adaptive robust controller based on an asymmetric barrier Lyapunov function(ABLF).The controller design incorporates both load and driver states through a backstepping synthesis.The overshoot and lag of barrel position errors are constrained within asymmetric boundaries,accounting for complex rotational uncertainties via an adaptive law and linear extended state observers(LESO).Simulations and experiments under typical artillery operating conditions validate the effectiveness and dynamic tracking performance of the proposed control strategy in comparison with other methods.

文摘Dear Editor,This letter studies the event-triggered adaptive horizon distributed model predictive control problem for discrete-time coupled nonlinear systems with additive disturbances.By constructing a new dualmodel optimal control problem,an event-triggered mechanism and an adaptive prediction horizon scheme are co-designed in the proposed scheme.Notably,the upper bound of the triggering interval remains independent of the dynamically shrinking prediction horizon.This enables the event-triggered mechanism to operate effectively even when the prediction horizon becomes zero,thus achieving cost savings throughout the control process.In addition,the sufficient conditions of the proposed scheme associated with the feasibility and stability are provided.The effectiveness is illustrated through a practical example.

文摘Plug-and-play technology is an important direction for future development of spacecraft and how to design controllers with less communication burden and satisfactory performance is of great importance for plug-and-play spacecraft. Considering attitude tracking of such spacecraft with unknown inertial parameters and unknown disturbances, an event-triggered adaptive backstepping controller is designed in this paper. Particularly, a switching threshold strategy is employed to design the event-triggering mechanism. By introducing a new linear time-varying model, a smooth function, an integrable auxiliary signal and a bound estimation approach, the impacts of the network-induced error and the disturbances are effectively compensated for and Zeno phenomenon is successfully avoided. It is shown that all signals of the closed-loop system are globally uniformly bounded and both the attitude tracking error and the angular velocity tracking error converge to zero. Compared with conventional control schemes, the proposed scheme significantly reduces the communication burden while providing stable and accurate response for attitude maneuvers. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

文摘In this paper,the event-triggered consensus control problem for nonlinear uncertain multi-agent systems subject to unknown parameters and external disturbances is considered.The dynamics of subsystems are second-order with similar structures,and the nodes are connected by undirected graphs.The event-triggered mechanisms are not only utilized in the transmission of information from the controllers to the actuators,and from the sensors to the controllers within each agent,but also in the communication between agents.Based on the adaptive backstepping method,extra estimators are introduced to handle the unknown parameters,and the measurement errors that occur during the event-triggered communication are well handled by designing compensating terms for the control signals.The presented distributed event-triggered adaptive control laws can guarantee the boundness of the consensus tracking errors and the Zeno behavior is avoided.Meanwhile,the update frequency of the controllers and the load of communication burden are vastly reduced.The obtained control protocol is further applied to a multi-input multi-output second-order nonlinear multi-agent system,and the simulation results show the effectiveness and advantages of our proposed method.

文摘This paper investigates the event-triggered security consensus problem for nonlinear multi-agent systems(MASs)under denial-of-service(Do S)attacks over an undirected graph.A novel adaptive memory observer-based anti-disturbance control scheme is presented to improve the observer accuracy by adding a buffer for the system output measurements.Meanwhile,this control scheme can also provide more reasonable control signals when Do S attacks occur.To save network resources,an adaptive memory event-triggered mechanism(AMETM)is also proposed and Zeno behavior is excluded.It is worth mentioning that the AMETM's updates do not require global information.Then,the observer and controller gains are obtained by using the linear matrix inequality(LMI)technique.Finally,simulation examples show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
