Abstract

This paper presents a function approximation technique (FAT) including a fractional-order (FO) compound learning controller in the framework of backstepping algorithm. The controller is applied to uncertain fractional-order nonlinear systems with time-varying input delay in the presence of unknown external disturbances. An FAT is adopted in the learning-based design to identify unknown terms in the system description. In addition, a FO-augmented controller compensates the delay effects and a FO command-filtered algorithm copes with the complexity of the backstepping-based design. The approximation of the FAT learning process is also considered by defining a prediction error, which is derived from the FO serial–parallel identifier. FO compound adaptive laws are then proposed. The stability of the overall system is verified through a Lyapunov analysis. The proposed concepts are illustrated using numerical examples.
