Fuzzy Adaptive Command-Filter Control of Incommensurate Fractional-Order Nonlinear Systems

This paper focuses on the command-filter control of nonstrict-feedback incommensurate fractional-order systems. We utilized fuzzy systems to approximate nonlinear systems, and designed an adaptive update law to estimate the approximation errors. To overcome the dimension explosion phenomenon in the backstepping process, we designed a fractional-order filter and applied the command filter control technique. The closed-loop system was semiglobally stable, and the tracking error converged to a small neighbourhood of equilibrium points under the proposed control approach. Lastly, the validity of the developed controller is verified with simulation examples.
