Abstract:
In this paper, the adaptive trajectory tracking control problem for a class of stochastic nonlinear systems is investigated. A novel follower-type integral barrier Lyapunov function (FIBLF) is proposed to construct full-state dynamic constraint boundaries that translate synchronously with the desired trajectory while maintaining a constant bandwidth. Corresponding adaptive neural controllers are designed for both symmetric and asymmetric constraint cases. In addition, a relative-threshold event-triggered mechanism is introduced to reduce redundant control updates and the computational burden. Based on the backstepping design and the online approximation capability of radial basis function neural networks (RBFNNs) for unknown terms, the corresponding control laws and adaptive update laws are constructed. Stability analysis demonstrates that all closed-loop signals are semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded (SGUUB) in probability. Numerical simulations further validate the effectiveness of the proposed method in terms of trajectory tracking performance, state constraint satisfaction, and a reduction in the control update frequency.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
Linear Approximation in Frequency Domain
In contrast, nonlinear systems do not inherently possess these properties. However, for small deviations around an operating point, a nonlinear system can often be approximated as linear.
