Neuroadaptive control of saturated nonlinear systems with disturbance compensation.

Extended state observer acting as a popular tool can estimate the system states and total disturbances simultaneously. However, for extended-state-observer-based control of high-order nonlinear systems, there are still some difficult issues to solve, such as how to simultaneously reject matched and mismatched model uncertainties with strict theoretical proof, especially in the case of output feedback, "explosion of complexity" and so on. Motivated by these reasons, different control schemes in full-state feedback and output feedback conditions respectively will be integrated via the filter-based backstepping approach for saturated nonlinear systems. For the full-state feedback condition, adaptive neural network and extended state observer will be combined for each dynamic to handle the unknown nonlinear dynamics and external disturbances, respectively. For the output feedback condition, nonlinear disturbance observer design will be incorporated into the neural-network-based extended state observer scheme to handle mismatched disturbances at the same time. In particular, an auxiliary system will be constructed to compensate for the saturation influence. Moreover, the anticipate control effects of the developed controllers have been demonstrated by contrastive results for a hydraulic servo system.
