Adaptive Controller Design-Based ABLF for a Class of Nonlinear Time-Varying State Constraint Systems
In this paper, we address an adaptive control problem for a class of nonlinear strict-feedback systems with uncertain parameter. The full states of the systems are constrained in the bounded sets and the boundaries of sets are compelled in the asymmetric time-varying regions, i.e., the full state time-varying constraints are considered here. This is for the first time to control such a class of systems. To prevent that the constraints are overstepped, the time-varying asymmetric barrier Lyapunov functions (TABLFs) are employed in each step of the backsstepping design and we also establish a novel control TABLF scheme to ensure the asymptotic output tracking performance. The performances of the adaptive TABLF-based control are verified by a simulation example.
