A time-scale transformation approach to prescribed-time stabilisation of non-holonomic systems with inputs quantisation

摘要

This article addresses the problem of global stabilisation using state feedback for a kind of uncertain non-holonomic systems in chained form. Two distinct characteristics of this study are that the considered system suffers from the input-quantised actuator, and the system states are expected to converge to zero in prescribed finite time. To address these, a time-scale transformation, that can change the original stabilisation into the finite-time stabilisation of the transformed one, is first introduced. Then, under the new framework of equivalent transformation, a quantised state feedback controller that achieves of the performance requirements is developed with the aid of the recursive technique. Finally, simulation results of a unicycle-type mobile robot are provided to confirm the efficacy of the proposed approach.
