This paper investigates the problem of adaptive control based on Barrier Lyapunov function for a class of full-state constrained stochastic nonlinear systems with dead-zone and unmodeled dynamics. To stabilize such a system, a dynamic signal is introduced to dominate unmodeled dynamics and an assistant signal is constructed to compensate for the effect of the dead zone. Dynamic surface control is used to solve the “complexity explosion” problem in traditional backstepping design. Two cases of symmetric and asymmetric Barrier Lyapunov functions are discussed respectively in this paper. The proposed Barrier Lyapunov function based on backstepping method can ensure that the output tracking error converges in the small neighborhood of the origin. This control scheme can ensure that semi-globally uniformly ultimately boundedness of all signals in the closed-loop system. Two simulation cases are proposed to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical method.

AbstractThis paper presents a novel method for designing an adaptive control system using radial basis function neural network. The method is capable of dealing with nonlinear stochastic systems in strict-feedback form with any unknown dynamics. The proposed neural network allows the method not only to approximate any unknown dynamic of stochastic nonlinear systems, but also to compensate actuator nonlinearity. By employing dynamic surface control method, a common problem that intrinsically exists in the back-stepping design, called “explosion of complexity”, is resolved. The proposed method is applied to the control systems comprising various types of the actuator nonlinearities such as Prandtl–Ishlinskii (PI) hysteresis, and dead-zone nonlinearity. The performance of the proposed method is compared to two different baseline methods: a direct form of backstepping method, and an adaptation of the proposed method, named APIC-DSC, in which the neural network is not contributed in compensating the actuator nonlinearity. It is observed that the proposed method improves the failure-free tracking performance in terms of the Integrated Mean Square Error (IMSE) by 25%/11% as compared to the backstepping/APIC-DSC method. This depression in IMSE is further improved by 76%/38% and 32%/49%, when it comes with the actuator nonlinearity of PI hysteresis and dead-zone, respectively. The proposed method also demands shorter adaptation period compared with the baseline methods.
