Observer-Based Adaptive Fuzzy Fault-Tolerant Control for Stochastic Nonstrict-Feedback Nonlinear Systems With Input Quantization

This paper is focused on the observer-based adaptive fuzzy control problem for nonlinear stochastic systems with the nonstrict-feedback form, in which some complicated and challenging issues including unmeasurable states, input quantization and actuator faults are addressed. The fuzzy logic systems are introduced to approximate the nonlinear functions existing in the control system. A fuzzy observer is designed to observe the unavailable state variables. In order to handle the negative effects resulting from input quantization and actuator faults, a damping term with the estimation of unknown bounds as well as a positive time-varying integral function are constructed, respectively. Furthermore, an observer-based adaptive fuzzy control scheme is proposed for the considered systems to compensate for the effects of input quantization and actuator fault based on adaptive backstepping approach. The proposed control strategy can guarantee that all the signals in the closed-loop system are bounded. Finally, simulation results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive control scheme.
