Abstract
This paper addresses the finite-time tracking control problem for a class of quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (QUAV) subject to unknown mixed faults and external disturbances. The considered mixed faults include both input quantization and actuator faults. First, radial basis function neural networks (RBFNNs) are employed to approximate the unknown nonlinear dynamics of the QUAV system, with adaptive control laws designed for online weights updates. Second, since the neural network approximation errors and external disturbances can be treated as unknown but bounded constants, adaptive control laws are developed to estimate these parameters. Third, to address the design complexity caused by unknown control coefficients arising from mixed faults, a Nussbaum gain function is introduced. Subsequently, based on the designed global fast terminal sliding mode (GFTSM) functions, adaptive GFTSM…
