Robust control design for a class of mismatched uncertain nonlinear systems

摘要

We consider the robust control design problem for a class of nonlinear uncertain systems. The uncertainty in the system may be due to parameter variations and/or nonlinearity. It may be (possibly fast) time-varying. The system does not satisfy the so-called matching condition. Under a state transformation, which is based on the possible bound of the uncertainty, a robust control scheme can be designed. The control renders the uncertain system practically stable. Furthermore, the uniform ultimate boundedness ball and uniform stability ball can be made arbitrarily small by suitable choice of design parameters.
