Neuroadaptive Fault-Tolerant Control With Unsynchronized Event Triggering for Actuation Updating and Parameter Adaptation
Hongwei Cao, Yongduan Song · IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems · 2021
Communication and computation resources are normally limited in remote/networked control systems, and thus, saving either of them could substantially contribute to cost reduction and life-span increasing as well as reliability enhancement for such systems. This article investigates the event-triggered control method to save both communication and computation resources for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems in the presence of actuator failures and full-state constraints. By introducing the triggering mechanisms for actuation updating and parameter adaptation, and with the aid of the unified constraining functions, a neuroadaptive and fault-tolerant event-triggered control scheme is developed with several salient features: 1) online computation and communication resources are substantially reduced due to the utilization of unsynchronized (uncorrelated) event-triggering pace for control updating and parameter adaptation; 2) systems with and without constraints can be addressed uniformly without involving feasibility conditions on virtual controllers; and 3) the output tracking error converges to a prescribed precision region in the presence of actuation faults and state constraints. Both theoretical analysis and numerical simulation verify the benefits and efficiency of the proposed method.
