This paper investigates the adaptive output feedback attitude control of a quadrotor. First, a nonsingular terminal sliding-mode variable and auxiliary variable are introduced into a closed-loop structure. Meanwhile, a fuzzy logic system is incorporated into an adaptive algorithm to compensate for the adverse influence caused by lumped disturbances including system uncertainty and external disturbances on the attitude adjustment performance of a quadrotor. Then, a novel finite-time output feedback controller equipped with the saturation suppression algorithm is designed. Rigorous proof shows that the design control strategy ensures the closed-loop system stability and guarantees the attitude of the spacecraft to track desired command signals in finite time. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed control scheme.

Distributed attitude control for spacecraft formation without angular velocity measurement is complicated and challenging. Based on nonsingular terminal sliding mode, this paper designs two kinds of finite-time attitude synchronization controllers with inertia uncertainties and external disturbances. Aiming at calculating angular velocity in finite time, a nonlinear state observer and an angular velocity calculation algorithm are firstly developed. Then, two strategies for estimating reference signals and two distributed output feedback controllers, based on continuous adaptive technology and adaptive disturbance observer, are designed respectively. Different from existing results, the controllers are inherently continuous and the control chattering is greatly reduced. Also, the designed nonlinear observers need no prior knowledge on the upper bound of uncertain state and are proved finite-time convergent via Lyapunov theory. Finally, simulations and comparisons demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.

A novel full-order terminal sliding-mode controller (FOTSMC) based on the finite-time disturbance observer (FTDO) is proposed for the “JIAOLONG” manned submersible with lumped disturbances. First, a finite-time disturbance observer (FTDO) is developed to estimate the lumped disturbances including the external disturbances and model uncertainties. Second, a full-order terminal sliding-mode surface is designed for the manned submersible, whose sliding-mode motion behaves as full-order dynamics rather than reduced-order dynamics in conventional sliding-mode control systems. Then, a continuous sliding-mode control law is developed to avoid chattering phenomenon, as well as to drive the system outputs to the desired reference trajectory in finite time. Furthermore, the closed-loop system stability analysis is given by Lyapunov theory. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate the satisfactory tracking performance and excellent disturbance rejection capability of the proposed finite-time disturbance observer based full-order terminal sliding-mode control (FTDO-FOTSMC) method.

For the 4-DOF (degrees of freedom) trajectory tracking control problem of underwater remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) in the presence of model uncertainties and external disturbances, a novel output feedback fractional-order nonsingular terminal sliding mode control (FO-NTSMC) technique is introduced in light of the equivalent output injection sliding mode observer (SMO) and TSMC principle and fractional calculus technology. The equivalent output injection SMO is applied to reconstruct the full states in finite time. Meanwhile, the FO-NTSMC algorithm, based on a new proposed fractional-order switching manifold, is designed to stabilize the tracking error to equilibrium points in finite time. The corresponding stability analysis of the closed-loop system is presented using the fractional-order version of the Lyapunov stability theory. Comparative numerical simulation results are presented and analyzed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Finally, it is noteworthy that the proposed output feedback FO-NTSMC technique can be used to control a broad range of nonlinear second-order dynamical systems in finite time.

Abstract This study considers the problem of finitetime attitude control for quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) subject to parametric uncertainties, external disturbances, input saturation, and actuator faults. Under the strong approximation of radial basis function neural networks (RBFNN), an adaptive finitetime NN observer is first presented to obtain the accurate information of unavailable angular velocity. More importantly, an adaptive mechanism to adjust the output gain of the fuzzy logic system (FLS) is developed to avoid the selection of larger control gains, and can even work well without the prior information on the bound of the lumped disturbance. Based on the nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode manifold, a novel switching control law is designed by incorporating the adaptive FLS and fast continuous controller in order to remove the undesired chattering phenomenon and solve the negative effects induced from the parametric uncertainty, external disturbance, and actuator fault. To deal with the input saturation, an auxiliary system is constructed. The rigorous theoretical analysis is given to prove that all the signals in the closed-loop system are uniformly bounded, and tracking errors converge into bounded neighborhoods near the origin in finite time. Moreover, the issue of selecting control parameters is analyzed in detail. Last but not least, the comparative simulation results show the validity and feasibility of the proposed control framework.
