Event-Triggered Adaptive Finite-Time Control for a Robotic Manipulator System With Global Prescribed Performance and Asymptotic Tracking

摘要

This article studies the dynamic event-triggered adaptive finite-time tracking control issue for a robotic manipulator (RM) system with disturbances. First, a new global prescribed performance function (PPF) is designed based on a scaling function such that the tracking error evolves within the constrained bounds and the restriction related to the initial conditions is removed. Then, the finite-time command filter (FTCF) is used to avoid the direct derivations of virtual controllers and the singularity issue of the conventional backstepping technique. Moreover, the filtering errors caused by the FTCF are removed by the designed error compensation mechanism. A novel dynamic event-triggered mechanism (DETM) using the dynamic auxiliary variable is designed to save communication resources. The proposed control scheme can guarantee that all signals of the RM are globally bounded within a finite time, and the tracking error can asymptotically reach zero. Finally, a simulation example and several comparative simulations show the validity of the proposed scheme.
