Abstract
This paper investigates the global fixed-time tracking control problem of nonlinear cascade systems with unknown high powers. In the process of control design, a upper bound and a lower bound of high powers are introduced to compensate the unknown system powers, and a state feedback controller is designed under any initial system conditions. Based on the Lyapunov stability analysis method and the fixed-time stability theory, it is verified that the proposed method can regulate the output tracking error to a disc region of the origin within a fixed-time and all the closed-loop signals are bounded. At last, the effectiveness of the proposed scheme is verified by some simulation results.
