Event-Triggered Backstepping Control of Fractional-Order Chaotic Systems with Dead Zone Via Disturbance Observer

This paper comes up with an adaptive event-triggered tracking control scheme for a kind of fractional-order strict feedback nonlinear systems with actuator dead-zone inputs and uncertain external disturbances. The presented strategy can overcome the defect in standard backstepping control scheme which leads to the “explosion of complexity” problem of virtual signals, and strengthen the transmission efficiency by an event-triggered scheme. An error compensation mechanism is presented for promoting the tracking accuracy and reducing the effect filter error. The designed controller guarantees that the tracking error converges into a small neighborhood near the origin, and all closed-loop signals are bounded. Moreover, Zeno behavior will be avoided. The numerical simulation is given to verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the designed technique.
