Abstract
This paper studies the finite-time stabilization (FTS) of strict-feedback nonlinear systems (SFNSs) with impulse effects. The significant system characteristics, i.e., complex impulse effects, time-varying growth rates, and higher-order nonlinearities, render existing finite-time control schemes inapplicable. To overcome these challenges, we apply a dual dynamic gain approach with a state transformation to transform the FTS problem into a problem of constructing dynamic equations. Then, the relationship between the system structure, impulse effect and settling time is delicately revealed. The results show that under the constructed controller, all the closed-loop signals are bounded, the system states converge to the origin in finite time, and the settling time is effectively estimated despite the presence of impulse effects. In addition, by enhancing the gain updating mechanism, we establish an improved finite-time control scheme for systems with low-order and high-order nonlinearities. The effectiveness of the finite-time control scheme is demonstrated by an engineering example.
期刊介绍:
Founded in 1981 by two of the pre-eminent control theorists, Roger Brockett and Jan Willems, Systems & Control Letters is one of the leading journals in the field of control theory. The aim of the journal is to allow dissemination of relatively concise but highly original contributions whose high initial quality enables a relatively rapid review process. All aspects of the fields of systems and control are covered, especially mathematically-oriented and theoretical papers that have a clear relevance to engineering, physical and biological sciences, and even economics. Application-oriented papers with sophisticated and rigorous mathematical elements are also welcome.
