This paper addresses synchronisation problem of high-order multi-input/multi-output (MIMO) multi-agent systems. Each agent has unknown nonlinear dynamics and is subject to uncertain external disturbances. The agents must follow a reference trajectory. An adaptive distributed controller based on relative information of neighbours of each agent is designed to solve the problem for any undirected connected communication topology. A radial basis function neural network is used to represent the controller's unknown structure. Lyapunov stability analysis is employed to guarantee stability of the overall system. By the theoretical analysis, the closed-loop control system is shown to be uniformly ultimately bounded. Finally, simulations are provided to show effectiveness of the proposed control method against uncertainty and disturbances.
This paper addresses a robust adaptive control problem of non-square nonlinear systems with unmeasurable states. The systems are assumed to be multi-input/multi-output subject to dynamical uncertainties and external disturbances. The approach is studied for two cases, i.e., underactuated and over-actuated nonlinear systems. The new observer does not need to satisfy the SPR conditions. Moreover, a constant full-rank matrix with an adaptive gain is used to approximate the unknown gain matrix. Therefore, the proposed controller's structure simplifies its implementation. The unknown nonlinearity is estimated neural networks. Stability of the closed-loop system is proved using Lyapunov analysis. The feasibility of the proposed approach is validated by simulation examples.
