Practical Stabilization

This paper studies the practical stability of incorporating integral compensation into the original low-and-high gain feedback law. The motivation for the incorporation is for achieving output regulation in the presence of constant disturbances without the use of a very large high-gain parameter required in the original approach. Due to numerical accuracy, the employment of very large high-gain parameters to eliminate steady-state error has the potential for inducing undesirable chattering effect on the control signal. A set of linear matrix inequalities is formulated in this study to obtain the related design parameters, by which the incorporation can achieve both the practical stabilization and asymptotic output regulation in the presence of input saturation and constant disturbances. Furthermore, the saturation of the control input can be shown to vanish in finite time during the process of regulation. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

This paper presents an adaptive fixed-time guidance law for the three-dimensional interception guidance problem with impact angle constraints and control input saturation against a maneuvering target. First, a coupled guidance model formulated by the relative motion equation is established. On this basis, a fixed-time disturbance observer is employed to estimate the lumped disturbances. With the help of this estimation technique, the adaptive fixed-time sliding mode guidance law is designed to accomplish accurate interception. The stability of the closed-loop guidance system is proven by the Lyapunov method. Simulation results of different scenarios are executed to validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed guidance law.

Multi Agent

This paper investigates the leaderless and leader-following consensus problem for a class of second-order multi-agent systems subject to input saturation, that is, the control input is required to be a priori bounded. Moreover, the control coefficients are assumed to be unavailable, which cannot be lower or upper bounded by any known constants. Distributed consensus protocols are proposed based only on agents’ own velocity state information and relative position state information among neighbouring agents and the leader. By virtue of the adaptive control technique, algebraic graph theory and Barbalat’s lemma, it is proved that the states of the multi-agent systems can achieve consensus under the assumption that the interconnection topology is undirected and connected. Finally, two simulation examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Traction Characteristic

In the coordinated control of multiple motors for heavy-haul locomotives, the input value for a motor often exceeds its maximum allowable input value, resulting in the saturation problem. A traction total-amount coordinated tracking control (TACTC) strategy is proposed to address the input saturation of heavy-haul locomotives driven by multiple motors. This strategy reduces control input and suppresses input saturation. First, a multimotor traction model with uncertain parameter perturbations and external disturbances was established. Next, a sliding-mode disturbance observer (SMDO) was designed to reduce the sliding-mode switching gain, thereby decreasing the control input. An auxiliary anti-windup (AW) system was used to weaken the effect of input saturation on tracking performance. Then, the observed value and auxiliary state were fed back to the sliding-mode controller to design a TACTC protocol and ensure that the total amount of traction torque follows the desired traction characteristic curve. Finally, the Matlab/Simulink simulation and RT-Lab semiphysical experiment results show that the proposed strategy can effectively suppress the input saturation problem of multimotor coordinated control.
