A Novel Faster Fixed-Time Adaptive Control for Robotic Systems With Input Saturation

摘要

In this paper, an adaptive anti-saturation fixed-time control method with a faster convergence rate is studied for uncertain robotic systems. Firstly, a new segmental sliding variable is constructed to solve the singularity problem brought by the terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) and achieve a faster convergence rate. Secondly, to approximate and compensate for the model uncertainty and the viscous friction parameter, an adaptive neural network (ANN) is employed. Then, a novel auxiliary system is constructed to mitigate the effects of input saturation. Based on this, a novel non-singular TSMC algorithm integrated with the ANN and the auxiliary system is designed, so that the trajectory tracking errors of the robotic system can converge within a faster fixed time with actuator saturation. Finally, the superiority and practicability of the present method are verified by comparative experiments.
