Abstract

This paper introduces a finite-time fault-tolerant tracking control (FTTC) scheme by intelligent learning technology for a fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) against actuator-sensor faults and input saturation. To enhance the security of UAV, radial basis function neural networks are designed to approximate the unknown terms caused by the unexpected actuator-sensor faults and input saturation. Moreover, a finite-time command filter and an auxiliary system are utilized to tackle the computational explosion in the back-stepping architecture and input saturation, respectively. Additionally, a Nussbaum function is integrated in the FTTC design to reduce the computation in auxiliary system. Eventually, the effectiveness is demonstrated by simulation results.
