Abstract

This paper addresses a tracking control problem with prespecified accuracy for uncertain switching nonlinear systems under arbitrary switching with periodically time-varying parameters. To approximate the unknown nonlinear functions and unknown periodically time-varying parameters, the radial basis function neural network and Fourier series expansion are introduced, respectively. Compared with the previous results of unknown nonlinear switching system approximation, the upper bounds of the approximation errors are considered for the first time. And then, a new adaptive NN control scheme is constructed by using backstepping technique and common Lyapunov function theory. It can be proved that all the signals in the closed-loop system are semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded and the tracking error converges to the prescribed neighborhood of zero. Two examples are provided to verify the feasibility and advantages of the proposed approach in this paper.
