Fuzzy-Based Multierror Constraint Control for Switched Nonlinear Systems and Its Applications

Abstract

In this paper, a framework of adaptive control for a switched nonlinear system with multiple prescribed performance bounds is established using an improved dwell time technique. Since the prescribed performance bounds for subsystems are different from each other, the different coordinate transformations have to be tackled when the system is transformed, which have not been encountered in some switched systems. We deal with the different coordinate transformations by finding a specific relationship between any two different coordinate transformations. To obtain a much less conservative result, in contrast to the common adaptive law, different adaptive laws are established for both active and inactive time-interval of each subsystem. The proposed controllers and switching signals guarantee that all signals appearing in the closed-loop system are bounded. Furthermore, both transient-state and steady-state performances of the switched system are obtained. Finally, the effectiveness of the developed method is verified by the application to a continuous stirred tank reactor system.
