Event-Triggered Fuzzy Adaptive Predefined-Time Control for Fractional-Order Nonlinear Systems with Time-Varying Deferred Constraints and Its Application

This paper focuses on the fuzzy adaptive predefined-time control for fractional-order nonlinear systems with time-varying deferred constraints. First, a modified dynamic surface control technique is introduced to address the problem of computational complexity exposed in the backstepping framework, and the interval type-2 fuzzy logic systems are applied to model the unknown nonlinearities of the systems. Next, a shifting function and the barrier Lyapunov function with variational barrier bounds are formulated to deal with the constraints issue. Particularly, the constraint conditions can be satisfied within a predetermined time, even if they are transgressed initially. Furthermore, a switching threshold event-triggered controller is devised to balance the control energy and communication resources. With the help of the predefined-time stability criterion, it is proven that the presented predefined-time event-triggered controller can ensure that all the signals involved in the closed-loop system are bounded and the tracking error fluctuates to a small neighborhood of the origin in a predefined-time interval. Finally, two simulation examples are provided to confirm the effectiveness of the put-forward control algorithm.
