Adaptive Finite-Time Command Filtered Fault-Tolerant Control for Uncertain Spacecraft with Prescribed Performance

Abstract

In this paper, an adaptive finite-Time fault-Tolerant control scheme is proposed for the attitude stabilization of rigid spacecrafts. A first-order command filter is presented at the second step of the backstepping design to approximate the derivative of the virtual control, such that the singularity problem caused by the differentiation of the virtual control is avoided. Then, an adaptive fuzzy finite-Time backstepping controller is developed to achieve the finite-Time attitude stabilization subject to inertia uncertainty, external disturbance, actuator saturation, and faults. Through using an error transformation, the prescribed performance boundary is incorporated into the controller design to guarantee the prescribed performance of the system output. Numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
