Description
Summary:A predefined-time adaptive fuzzy cooperative controller with event triggering is proposed for multi-robot systems that takes into account external disturbances, input saturation, and model uncertainties in this paper. First, based on the asymmetric tan-type barrier Lyapunov function, a predefined-time controller is proposed to acquire a quick response and more precise convergence time under the directed communication topology. Second, predefined-time fuzzy logic systems are developed to approximate external disturbances and model uncertainties. Third, a dynamic relative threshold event-triggered mechanism is improved to save the communication resources of the robots. Subsequently, the proof procedure for the predefined-time stability is given using the Lyapunov stability theorem. Finally, some simulation examples, including a comparative experi-ment on multi-robot systems, are provided to test the effectiveness of the above algorithm.
