In this paper, the consensus problem is addressed for multi-agent systems. The dynamics of each agent contain unknown uncertain/nonlinear terms and unknown time delays. A type-3 fuzzy logic system is developed to tackle the effect of unknown dynamics and design a hybrid controller. The policy scheme involves two control signals for the stabilization of the approximation and consensus error of each agent dynamic. To this end, based on the concept of the model predictive control approach, the constrained control laws are designed and updated at each time step. The simulations results portray the error signals. Feasibility, appropriate convergence, and proper transient response are the main merits of the suggested method.

In this paper, a robust adaptive control strategy is proposed to synchronize a class of uncertain chaotic systems with unknown time delays. Using Lyapunov theory and Lipschitz conditions in chaotic systems, the necessary adaptation rules for estimating uncertain parameters and unknown time delays are determined. Based on the proposed adaptation rules, an adaptive controller is recommended for the robust synchronization of the aforementioned uncertain systems that prove the robust stability of the proposed control mechanism utilizing the Lyapunov theorem. Finally, to evaluate the proposed robust and adaptive control mechanism, the synchronization of two Jerk chaotic systems with finite non-linear uncertainty and external disturbances as well as unknown fixed and variable time delays are simulated. The simulation results confirm the ability of the proposed control mechanism in robust synchronization of the uncertain chaotic systems as well as to estimate uncertain and unknown parameters.

The paper studies a novel adaptive identifier proposed in IFAC World Congress 2020 for nonlinear time-delay systems composed of linear, Lipschitz and non-Lipschitz components. To begin with, an identifier is designed for uncertain systems with a priori known delay values, and then it is generalized for systems with unknown delay values. The algorithm ensures the asymptotic parameter estimation and state observation by using gradient algorithms. The unknown delays and plant parameters are estimated by using a special equivalent extension of the plant equation. The algorithms stability is presented by solvability of linear matrix inequalities. Simulation results are invoked to support the developed identifier design and to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed synthesis procedure.

In visual-inertial odometry (VIO), inertial measurement unit (IMU) dead reckoning acts as the dynamic model for flight vehicles while camera vision extracts information about the surrounding environment and determines features or points of interest. With these sensors, the most widely used algorithm for estimating vehicle and feature states for VIO is an extended Kalman filter (EKF). The design of the standard EKF does not inherently allow for time offsets between the timestamps of the IMU and vision data. In fact, sensor-related delays that arise in various realistic conditions are at least partially unknown parameters. A lack of compensation for unknown parameters often leads to a serious impact on the accuracy of VIO systems and systems like them. To compensate for the uncertainties of the unknown time delays, this study incorporates parameter estimation into feature initialization and state estimation. Moreover, computing cross-covariance and estimating delays in online temporal calibration correct residual, Jacobian, and covariance. Results from flight dataset testing validate the improved accuracy of VIO employing latency compensated filtering frameworks. The insights and methods proposed here are ultimately useful in any estimation problem (e.g., multi-sensor fusion scenarios) where compensation for partially unknown time delays can enhance performance.
