This paper develops a new robust tracking control design for n-link robot manipulators with dynamic uncertainties, and unknown disturbances. The procedure is conducted by designing two adaptive interval type-2 fuzzy logic systems (AIT2-FLSs) to better approximate the parametric uncertainties on the system nominal. Then, in order to achieve the best tracking control performance and to enhance the system robustness against approximation errors and unknown disturbances, a new control algorithm, which uses a new synthesized AIT2 fuzzy sliding mode control (AIT2-FSMC) law, has been proposed. To deal with the chattering phenomenon without deteriorating the system robustness, the AIT2-FSMC has been designed so as to generate three adaptive control laws that provide the optimal gains value of the global control law. The adaptation laws have been designed in the sense of the Lyapunov stability theorem. Mathematical proof shows that the closed loop control system is globally asymptotically stable. Finally, a 2-link robot manipulator is used as case study to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control approach.
In this study, we develop a rigorous tracking control approach for quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with unknown dynamics, unknown physical parameters, and subject to unknown and unpredictable disturbances. In order to better estimate the unknown functions, seven interval type-2-adaptive fuzzy systems (IT2-AFSs) and five adaptive systems are designed. Then, a new IT2 adaptive fuzzy reaching sliding mode system (IT2-AFRSMS) which generates an optimal smooth adaptive fuzzy reaching sliding mode control law (AFRSMCL) using IT2-AFSs is introduced. The AFRSMCL is designed a way that ensures that its gains are efficiently estimated. Thus, the global proposed control law can effectively achieve the predetermined performances of the tracking control while simultaneously avoiding the chattering phenomenon, despite the approximation errors and all disturbances acting on the quadrotor dynamics. The adaptation laws are designed by utilizing the stability analysis of Lyapunov. A simulation example is used to validate the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed method of control. The obtained results confirm the results of the mathematical analysis in guaranteeing the tracking convergence and stability of the closed loop dynamics despite the unknown dynamics, unknown disturbances, and unknown physical parameters of the controlled system.
In this paper, in order to achieve the best tracking control of a class of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) nonlinear systems with unknown dynamics and unknown disturbances, a new robust adaptive interval type-2 fuzzy sliding mode control law (AIT2-FSMCL) has been proposed. Based on developing interval type-2 fuzzy local models for some operating points of the controlled system, an interval type-2 fuzzy logic system (IT2-FLS) has been designed to better estimate the unknown nonlinear dynamics of the studied system. Then, to enhance the tracking control performance and ensure the system robustness in the presence of approximation errors, parameter variations, un-modelled dynamics and external disturbances, a new AIT2-fuzzy sliding mode system (AIT2-FSMS), has been introduced. In order to avoid the chattering phenomenon while keeping the system performance, the AIT2-FSMS uses three AIT2-fuzzy logic systems (AIT2-FLSs) to estimate the optimal gains of the AIT2-FSMCL. The adaptation laws have been derived using the Lyapunov stability approach. The mathematical proof shows that the closed-loop system with the proposed control approach is globally asymptotically stable. Finally, the proposed design method is applied to a two-link robot arm to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control approach.
This study deals with the tracking control problem of a large class of multi input multi output (MIMO) nonlinear systems with unknown dynamics and subject to unknown disturbances. First, two interval type-2 adaptive fuzzy systems (IT2-AFSs) are constructed to efficiently estimate the unknown nonlinear dynamics. Then, based on IT2-AFSs and super-twisting algorithm (STA), a new robust adaptive fuzzy-reaching STC law (AF-RSTCL) has been added to the global control law to improve the robustness of the studied systems in the presence of approximation errors and unknown disturbances. In order to avoid the chattering phenomenon and guarantee simultaneously the best tracking performance, the gains of the designed AF-RSTCL are optimally online estimated. The adaptive parameters of the global synthesized control law are deduced from the stability analysis in the sense of Lyapunov. Finally, an example of simulation is used to confirm the effectiveness of the developed method in achieving the predetermined objectives of the tracking control.
