Adaptive fuzzy control with output feedback for H infinity tracking of SISO nonlinear systems.
Observer-based adaptive fuzzy H(infinity) control is proposed to achieve H(infinity) tracking performance for a class of nonlinear systems, which are subject to model uncertainty and external disturbances and in which only a measurement of the output is available. The key ideas in the design of the proposed controller are (i) to transform the nonlinear control problem into a regulation problem through suitable output feedback, (ii) to design a state observer for the estimation of the non-measurable elements of the system's state vector, (iii) to design neuro-fuzzy approximators that receive as inputs the parameters of the reconstructed state vector and give as output an estimation of the system's unknown dynamics, (iv) to use an H(infinity) control term for the compensation of external disturbances and modelling errors, (v) to use Lyapunov stability analysis in order to find the learning law for the neuro-fuzzy approximators, and a supervisory control term for disturbance and modelling error rejection. The control scheme is tested in the cart-pole balancing problem and in a DC-motor model.
