Conventional fault-tolerant control (FTC) schemes typically assume the exponent of the faulty input to be 1, overlooking its impact on actuator power. In this article, we propose a novel FTC strategy that extends the exponent to any positive odd integer, thus capturing higher-order fault effects. In addition, by integrating a Gaussian function to modify the constraint boundaries, a novel suction-cup-type prescribed performance function is proposed. Unlike existing prescribed performance functions, this design uses a suction cup module to regulate output overshoot without requiring asymmetric design. This design is globally effective, eliminating the initial feasibility conditions. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
