✦ Synopsis

An output feedback controller is proposed for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems preceded by unknown backlash-like hysteresis, where the hysteresis is modeled by a differential equation. The unknown nonlinear functions are approximated by fuzzy systems based on universal approximation theorem, where both the premise and the consequent parts of the fuzzy rules are tuned with adaptive schemes. The proposed approach does not need the availability of the states, which is essential in practice, and uses an observer to estimate the states. An adaptive robust structure is used to cope with lumped uncertainties generated by state estimation error, approximation error of fuzzy systems and external disturbances. Due to its adaptive structure the bound of lumped uncertainties does not need to be known and at the same time the chattering is attenuated effectively. The strictly positive real (SPR) Lyapunov synthesis approach is used to guarantee asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method simulation results are illustrated.
