Abstract
During the last decade a considerable progress has been made in the design of stabilizing controllers for nonlinear systems with known and unknown constant parameters. New design tools such as adaptive feedback linearization, adaptive back-stepping, control Lyapunov functions (CLFs) and robust control Lyapunov functions (RCLFs), nonlinear damping and switching adaptive control have been introduced. Most of the results developed are applicable to single-input feedback-linearizable systems and parametric-strict-feedback systems. These results, however, cannot be applied to multi-input feedback-linearizable systems, parametric-pure-feedback systems and systems that admit a linear-in-the-parameters CLF. In this paper, we develop a general procedure for designing robust adaptive controllers for a large class of multi-input nonlinear systems. This class of nonlinear systems includes as a special case multi-input feedback-linearizable systems, parametric-pure-feedback systems and systems that admit a linear-in-the-parameters CLF. The proposed approach uses tools from the theory of RCLF and the switching adaptive controllers proposed by the authors for overcoming the problem of computing the feedback control law when the estimation model becomes uncontrollable. The proposed control approach has also been shown to be robust with respect to exogenous bounded input disturbances.Keywords
