An adaptive failure compensation scheme using output feedback is proposed for a class of nonlinear systems with nonlinearities depending on the unmeasured states of systems. Adaptive high-gain K-filters are presented to suppress the nonlinearities while the proposed backstepping adaptive high-gain controller guarantees the stability of the closed-loop system and small tracking errors. Simulation results verify that the adaptive failure compensation scheme is effective.

This paper studies the attitude-tracking control problem of spacecraft considering on-orbit refuelling. A time-varying inertia model is developed for spacecraft on-orbit refuelling, which actually includes two processes: fuel in the transfer pipe and fuel in the tank. Based upon the inertia model, an adaptive attitude-tracking controller is derived to guarantee the stability of the resulted closed-loop system, as well as asymptotic convergence of the attitude-tracking errors, despite performing refuelling operations. Finally, numerical simulations illustrate the effectiveness and performance of the proposed control scheme.

This paper deals with the output tracking control of gear transmission servo (GTS) systems in the presence of deadzone nonlinearity with nonsymmetric beak points and unknown parameters. A novel differentiable deadzone model with nonsymmetric break points is put forward, which greatly facilitates the control design for a class of mechanical systems in the presence of deadzone nonlinearity. A new smooth backstepping controller, based on the newly-developed model, is proposed for the nominal system. Then, guaranteed robust steady-state performance of the closed-loop system with parametric uncertainties is derived by using Lyapunov analysis for the perturbed nonlinear systems. Simulations are carried out to validate the proposed algorithm and analysis in this paper.

This paper investigates the output tracking control problem for a class of nonlinear systems with zero dynamic. On the basis of adding a power integrator method and approximation technique, an appropriate controller is proposed to guarantee that the tracking error turns to a preassigned neighborhood of the origin. The systems under investigation allow unmeasurable dynamic uncertainties, unknown nonlinear functions and unknown high-order terms. As an application, two examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of a control strategy.

In this paper, group formation control with collision avoidance is investigated for heterogeneous multiquadrotor vehicles. Specifically, the distance-based formation and tracking control problem are addressed in the framework of leader-follower architecture. In this scheme, the leader is assigned the task of intercepting a target whose velocity is unknown, while the follower quadrotors are arranged to set up a predefined rigid formation pattern, ensuring simultaneously interagent collision avoidance and relative localization. The adopted strategy for the control design consists in decoupling the quadrotor dynamics in a cascaded structure to handle its underactuated property. Furthermore, by imposing constraints on the orientation angles, the follower will never be overturned. Rigorous stability analysis is presented to prove the stability of the entire closed-loop system. Numerical simulation results are presented to validate the proposed control strategy.

In this paper, an adaptive robust controller with uniform robust exact differentiator has been proposed for a class of nonlinear systems with structured and unstructured uncertainties. The adaptive robust controller is integrated with an uniform robust differentiator to handle the problem of the incalculable part of the derivative of virtual controls and the differential explosion happened in backstepping techniques. The stability of the closed loop system is demonstrated via Lyapunov method ensuring a prescribed transient and tracking performance. Simulation and experimental results are carried out to verify the advantages of the proposed method.
