Log-linear Backstepping control on $SE_2(3)$

摘要

Most of the rigid-body systems which evolve on nonlinear Lie groups where Euclidean control designs lose geometric meaning. In this paper, we introduce a log-linear backstepping control law on SE2(3) that preserves full rotational-translational coupling. Leveraging a class of mixed-invariant system, which is a group-affine dynamic model, we derive exact logarithmic error dynamics that are linear in the Lie algebra. The closed-form expressions for the left- and right-Jacobian inverses of SE2(3) are expressed in the paper, which provides us the exact error dynamics without local approximations. A log-linear backstepping control design ensures exponential stability for our error dynamics; since our error dynamics is a block-triangular structure, this allows us to use Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) formulation or $H_\infty$ gain performance design. This work establishes the exact backstepping framework for a class of mixed-invariant system, providing a geometrically consistent foundation for future Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and spacecraft control design.
