Robust Control Design Technique For Nonlinear Uncertain Systems With Unknown Time Varying Control Direction

Abstract

In this paper, a continuous robust control design scheme is proposed for first-order nonlinear systems that have both nonlinear uncertainties and unknown time varying control directions. The so-called control direction is the multiplier of the control term that effectively represents the direction of motion under any given control. Nonlinear robust control is designed to on-line and continuously identify sign changes of the unknown control direction and to guarantee stability of uniform ultimate boundedness. Robust control requires only three conditions: the nominal system is stable, the control direction is smooth, and the uncertainties are bounded by known functions. Continuity of the proposed robust control is achieved by using a so-called shifting law that changes smoothly the sign of robust control and tracks the change of the control direction. The analysis and design is proceeded using the Lyapunov's direct method.
