Prescribed performance trajectory tracking fault-tolerant control for dynamic positioning vessels under velocity constraints

作者:

Highlights:

• A trajectory tracking method with prescribed performance is proposed for dynamic positioning vessels by artfully constructing the intermediated error variable, and combining with appointed-time performance function, time-invariant and time-varying asymmetric barrier Lyapunov functions. The derived controller can restrain not only the trajectory-level but also the velocity-level tracking errors from exceeding the corresponding performance constraints, meanwhile the tracking operation can achieve in a pre-appointed time.

• Neural network and adaptive techniques are incorporated to construct a fault-tolerant trajectory tracking controller, which can not only estimate thruster faults, but also provide better robustness against model uncertainties and external disturbance.
