Adaptive output feedback control of stochastic nonholonomic systems with nonlinear parameterization

The problem of adaptive output-feedback control of nonlinearly parameterized stochastic nonholonomic systems is studied in this paper. Since many unknowns (e.g., unknown control coefficients and unknown nonlinear parameters in systems' nonlinearities) occur into systems, we utilize an adaptive control method, together with a parameter separation technique, to construct an adaptive output feedback controller to regulate the whole systems. During the design procedure, a new form of reduced-order K-filters is given to compensate the unmeasured states of the systems. A switching strategy is proposed explicitly to stabilize the entire systems in the control scheme. Finally, a bilinear model with stochastic disturbances is presented to demonstrate our theoretical results.
