Finite-Time Output Feedback Controller Based on Observer for the Time-Varying Delayed Systems: A Moore-Penrose Inverse Approach

Abstract EN

This study proposes a novel variable structure control (VSC) for the mismatched uncertain systems with unknown time-varying delay.

The novel VSC includes the finite-time convergence sliding mode, invariance property, asymptotic stability, and measured output only.

A necessary and sufficient condition guaranteeing the existence of sliding surface is given.

A novel lemma is established to deal with the control design problem for a wider class of time-delay systems.

A suitable reduced-order observer (ROO) is constructed to estimate unmeasured state variables of the systems.

A novel finite-time output feedback controller (FTOFC) is investigated, which is based on the ROO tool and the Moore-Penrose inverse technique.

Moreover, with the help of this lemma and the proposed FTOFC, restrictions on most existing works are also eliminated.

In addition, an asymptotic stability analysis is implemented by means of the feasibility of the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) and given desirable sliding mode dynamics.

Finally, a MATLAB simulation result on a numerical example is performed to show the effectiveness and advantage of the proposed method.
