Description
Summary:This paper investigates the adaptive finite-time tracking control problem for a class of nonlinear time-varying delay systems subject to full state constraints and input saturation. The nonlinear state-dependent functions (NSDFs) are introduced to handle the asymmetric time-varying full state constraints without feasibility conditions. To cope with the unknown time-varying delays, the radial basis function neural networks (RBF NNs) and the finite covering lemma are utilized. Avoiding the use of the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals (LKFs), no restriction on the derivative of the time-varying delays is needed. Meanwhile, the effect of the input saturation is eliminated by the augmented function with an auxiliary control signal. The adaptive finite-time tracking controller with only one adaptive parameter is constructed by applying the command filter approach and backstepping technique. It is proved that the proposed controller can ensure that all signals in the closed-loop system are bounded and the tracking error converges to a small neighborhood of the origin in a finite time. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated by two simulation examples.
