1 Introduction
Over the past decades the modeling and control designproblem of nonlinear systems have attracted considerableattentions because of the extensively practical applicationsConsequently a large number of successful control schemesfor uncertain nonlinear systems with dead-zone time delaysand actuator failures have been developed in this area see[1ndash13] and the references therein More specifically Tong andLi [1] studied the adaptive fuzzy tracking control problem fora class of nonlinear systems with dead-zone nonlinearitiesIn [9] by employing a nonlinear fault estimator the outputfault-tolerant tracking control was developed using theadaptive backstepping technique Zhou et al [13] consideredthe adaptive output tracking control problem for a class ofnonlinear systems with stochastic disturbances and timedelays Recently the authors in [14] proposed the adaptivetracking control approaches for a class of nonlinear time-delayed systems with dead-zone nonlinearities The globalstabilization problem for a class of nonlinear time-delayed
systems [15] was considered by using multiswitching-basedadaptive neural network control method Besides by com-bining fuzzy approximation and adaptive backsteppingtechnique a novel robust fault-tolerant control scheme [16]was developed for a class of non-lower-triangular nonlinearsystems with actuator failures
It should be pointed out that all the abovementionedcontrol strategies are merely suitable for the considerednonlinear systems in affine form rather than nonaffine formIt is well known that the nonaffine nonlinear systems repre-sent more general cases which can describe many practicalprocesses Li andTong [17] proposed an adaptive fuzzy outputcontrol approach for a class of pure-feedback nonlinearsystems with dead-zone constrains In [18] an adaptivefuzzy asymptotic tracking controller was designed for a classof uncertain nonaffine nonlinear systems with dead-zoneinputs Meanwhile the actuator saturation constrain controlimplies that the input signals are always bounded for most ofpractical systems The saturation problem is very importantfor the actuator control design and the performance and

stability of the closed-loop systems will be severely effectiveif the input constrain in the design process is ignoredThus the adaptive control design for nonlinear systems withsaturation constrains is a challenging topic Wen et al [19]studied the adaptive control problem for a class of uncertainnonlinear systems with saturation constrains Based on thedisturbance observer direct adaptive NNs control strategiesin [20] were developed for a class of uncertain nonaffinenonlinear systems with saturation inputs Additionally theadaptive fuzzy tracking control scheme for a class of nonaffinenonlinear systems with saturation constrains and stochasticdisturbances in [21] was proposed
Motivated by the above considerations this paper studiesthe problem of adaptive fuzzy tracking control for a class ofuncertain nonaffinenonlinear systemswith input saturationsCompared with the existing results the main contributionsof this paper are as follows (1) The approximation-basedadaptive tracking control scheme is extended to nonaffinenonlinear systems with multiple time delays and saturationconstrains (2) Different from the design methods proposedin [20 21] it is obtained that the tracking errors canasymptotically converge to zero rather than being uniformlyultimately bounded (3) The mean value theorem is used todeal with the nonaffine term with input saturation and thusthe desired asymptotic tracking performance of the closed-loop systems can be achieved by using Lyapunov stabilityanalysis
The rest of the paper is organized as follows Section 2gives the problem statement and preliminaries A noveladaptive fuzzy asymptotic tracking controller is designed inSection 3 Simulation studies are then provided in Section 4to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control methodand Section 5 draws the conclusions
2 Problem Statement and Preliminaries
Consider the nonaffine nonlinear systems described as fol-lows

where 119909 = [1199091 1199092 119909119899]119879 isin R119899 is the system state119906 isin R is the actual control input and 119889(119905) isin R is theunknown bounded external disturbanceThe unknown non-linear function 119891(sdot sdot) R119899 times R rarr R is sufficiently smoothWithout loss of generalityΔ119864119894(sdot) 119894 = 1 2 119903 represent thesystem uncertainties and are assumed to be continuous withthe approximate dimensions 120591119894(119905) is the time-varying timedelay satisfying 0 le 120591119894(119905) le 120591lowast119894 119894(119905) le 120591lowast119894 lt 1 119894 = 1 2 119903119909(119905) = 120601(119905) 119905 isin [0 120591lowast] where 120601(119905) is the initial condition
and 120591lowast = max1le119894le119903120591lowast119894 In addition sat(119906) denotes the inputsaturation which is defined by
sat (119906 (119905)) =
119906119872 119906 (119905) ge 119906119872119906 (119905) 119906119898 le 119906 (119905) le 119906119872119906119898 119906 (119905) le 119906119898
(2)
where 119906119872 and 119906119898 are known upper and lower bounds of thecontrol output 119906(119905) respectively
Moreover as in [21] (2) can be written as
sat (119906 (119905)) = 119878 (119906 (119905)) + 119863 (119906 (119905)) (3)
where the piecewise smooth function 119878(119906) is defined as
119878 (119906) =
119906119872 lowast tanh( 119906119906119872) 119906 ge 0119906119898 lowast tanh( 119906119906119898) 119906 lt 0

(4)
and 119863(119906) = sat(119906) minus 119878(119906) Furthermore the bound of 119863(119906)can be obtained as
|119863 (119906)| le |sat (119906) minus 119878 (119906)|le max 119906119872 (1 minus tanh (1)) 119906119898 (tanh (1) minus 1)= 119863
(5)
with 119863 being the upper bound between the continuousfunction sat(119906) and the smooth function 119878(119906) Consequentlyit follows from the mean value theorem that 119878(119906) = (120597119878(119906120585)120597119906)119906 + 119878(0) with 119906120585 = 120582119906 and 0 lt 120582 lt 1 Noting (3) and (4)we can obtain that
sat (119906) = 120597119878 (119906120585)120597119906 119906 + 119863 (119906) (6)
The control objective is to design an adaptive fuzzyasymptotic tracking controller 119906(119905) to ensure that all theclosed-loop signals are bounded and the system states asymp-totically stable in the presence of external disturbancesmultiple time delays and saturation constrains Besides inorder to design adaptive state feedback controller119909 = [1199091 1199092 119909119899]119879 is assumed to be measurable and the state trackingerror is defined as 119890 = 119909 minus 119909119889 with the reference signal119909119889 being 119909119889 = [119910119889 119889 119910(119899minus1)119889 ]119879 Moreover the followingassumptions are given for system (1)
Assumption 1 There exist unknown positive constants 119889 and119889119896 such that |119889(119905)| le 1198890 and |119910(119896)119889 | le 119889119896 for 119896 = 0 1 2 119899respectively

Assumption 2 The uncertain function Δ119864119894(119909 119905) is assumedto satisfy Δ119864119894(119909 119905) le 120598lowast119896 with 120598lowast119894 119894 = 1 2 119903 beingunknown positive constants
Assumption 3 (see [18 20]) For all 119909 isin R119899 and 119906 isin R insystem (5) there always exist positive constants 1198721 and 1198722such that the following inequality holds
0 lt 1198721 le 120597119891 (119909 119906)120597119906 le 1198722 (7)
Assumption 4 Given the practical system described by (1)satisfying the input saturation (2) there exists feasible actualcontrol input 119906 which can achieve the desired controlobjective
Remark 5 Clearly Assumption 1 is quite standard andmeansthat the external disturbance the reference output signaland its time derivatives are bounded respectively It followsfrom Assumption 2 that the change rate of the input gainis bounded Particularly different from [20 21] the trackingerror of this paper can asymptotically converge to zero ratherthan to a desired compact set
Similar to [10 11 16ndash18] the following fuzzy approxima-tion lemma is given by the following lemma
Lemma 6 Let 119865(119883) be a continuous function that is definedon a compact set Ω119883 For any given positive constant 120598 therealways exists a fuzzy logic system 119910(119883) in the form of (7) suchthat
sup119883isinΩ119883
1003816100381610038161003816119865 (119883) minus 119910 (119883)1003816100381610038161003816 = 10038161003816100381610038161003816119865 (119883) minus 120579119879120585 (119883)10038161003816100381610038161003816 lt 120598 (8)
Consequently the optimal parameter vectors 120579lowast of fuzzy logicsystem (FLS) is defined as
120579lowast = argmin120579isinΩ120579
[ sup119883isinΩ119883

whereΩ120579 andΩ119883 are compact regions for 120579 and119883 respectivelyIn addition the fuzzy approximation error 120575lowast(119883) is defined as
119865 (119883) = 120579lowast119879120585 (119883) + 120575lowast (119883) forall119883 isin Ω119883 120579lowast isin Ω120579 (10)
3 Adaptive Fuzzy Tracking Controller Design
In this section the adaptive fuzzy asymptotic tracking controlscheme will be developed for the nonlinear system (1) withexternal disturbance multiple time delays and saturationconstrain For this purpose taking the time derivative of thetracking error 119890 = 119909 minus 119909119889 with respect to 119905 yields
119890 = 119860119890 + 119861(119891 (119909 sat (119906))
+ 119903sum119894=1
Δ119864119894 (119909 119905) 119909 (119905 minus 120591119894 (119905)) + 119889 (119905) minus 119909(119899)119889 ) (11)
where
119860 =[[[[[[[[[

119861 =[[[[[[[[[[

(12)
Then from (12)119860+119861119870 is a stablematrix by properly choosinga gain vector 119870 Moreover for any given 119876 = 119876119879 gt 0 thereexists 119875 = 119875119879 gt 0 such that the Lyapunov equation (119860 +119861119870)119879119875+119875(119860+119861119870)+(119903120578)119868 = minus119876 holds where 120578 is a positivedesign parameter
For the nonaffine term 119891(119909 sat(119906)) using the meanvalue theorem again gives 119891(119909 sat(119906)) = 119891(119909 0) + (120597119891(119909119906120577)120597119906)sat(119906) with 119906120577 = 120583119906 and 0 lt 120583 lt 1 From (6) it iseasy to see that
119891 (119909 sat (119906)) = 119891 (119909 0)+ 120597119891 (119909 119906120577)120597119906 (120597119878 (119906120585)120597119906 119906 + 119863 (119906))
= 120591119904119906 + Ψ (119909 119906) (13)
whereΨ(119909 119906) = ((120597119891(119909 119906120577)120597119906)(120597119878(119906120585)120597119906)minus120591119904)119906+119891(119909 0)+119863(119906) with 120591119904 being a positive design parameter In additionby using the expression in (10) (13) can be expressed as
119891 (119909 sat (119906)) = 120591119904119906 + 120579lowast119879120585 (119909 119890) + 120575lowast (119909 119890) forall (119909 119890) isin Ω sub R

where the approximation error 120575lowast(119909 119890) satisfies |120575lowast(119909 119890)| le120575lowast with 120575lowast being any small positive constant and Ω is anappropriate compact set Without loss of generality basedon Assumptions 1 and 2 we introduce the notions 119870lowast1 =sup119905ge0(|119909(119899)119889 (119905)| + |119889(119905)| + sum119896119894=1 119909119889(119905 minus 120591119894(119905)) + 120575lowast) and 119870lowast2 =sum119896119894=1(120598lowast2119894 (1minus120591lowast119894 )) where119870lowast1 and119870lowast2 are unknown constantsTherefore the adaptive fuzzy controller is designed as

Remark 7 The adaptive fuzzy controller (15) mainly consistsof four terms Concretely 120591minus1119904 is the positive design parameterof the adaptive control gain and the first term 119870119909 of theright hand side plays a key role for stabilizing system Thesecond term is used to decouple the nonaffine term withsaturation nonlinearity The third term and the fourth termwith adaptation laws (16) are used to deal with the effects ofmultiple time delays and external disturbance respectively
Now the stability of the resulting closed-loop system isgiven in the following theorem
Theorem 8 Consider the uncertain nonaffine nonlinear sys-tem (1) satisfying Assumptions 1ndash4 With the application ofadaptive fuzzy controller (15) and parameter updated laws (16)the tracking error of the closed-loop system can asymptoticallyconverge to zero that is lim119905rarrinfin119890(119905) = 0 for any (119909 119890) isin Ωwhich is a proper compact set

Remark 9 It should be pointed out that the control methodsproposed in [20 21] can guarantee that the tracking errorsconverge to the desired compact sets The tracking error ofthe closed-loop system can asymptotically converge to zeroby employing the adaptive control scheme in [18] howeverthis control scheme cannot deal with nonaffine nonlinearsystems with multiple time delays and saturation constrainsIn this paper based on fuzzy approximation technique andthe mean value theorem the proper nonlinear functions itis proved that the desired asymptotic tracking performanceof the closed-loop systems can be achieved via Lyapunovstability analysis

5 Conclusion
This paper studies a novel adaptive fuzzy asymptotic trackingcontrol scheme for a class of uncertain nonaffine nonlinearsystems with multiple time delays saturation constrains andexternal disturbances By using the mean value theorem andfuzzy logic system (FLS) the parameter updated laws areconstructed to estimate the unknown adaptive controllerparameters online It is also shown that the proposed controlmethod guarantees all the closed-loop system signals to beuniformly bounded and the tracking error can asymptoticallyconverge to zero based on Lyapunov-based analysis Numer-ical simulation results are provided to show the effectivenessof the proposed adaptive fuzzy tracking control designapproach

stability of the closed-loop systems will be severely effectiveif the input constrain in the design process is ignoredThus the adaptive control design for nonlinear systems withsaturation constrains is a challenging topic Wen et al [19]studied the adaptive control problem for a class of uncertainnonlinear systems with saturation constrains Based on thedisturbance observer direct adaptive NNs control strategiesin [20] were developed for a class of uncertain nonaffinenonlinear systems with saturation inputs Additionally theadaptive fuzzy tracking control scheme for a class of nonaffinenonlinear systems with saturation constrains and stochasticdisturbances in [21] was proposed
Motivated by the above considerations this paper studiesthe problem of adaptive fuzzy tracking control for a class ofuncertain nonaffinenonlinear systemswith input saturationsCompared with the existing results the main contributionsof this paper are as follows (1) The approximation-basedadaptive tracking control scheme is extended to nonaffinenonlinear systems with multiple time delays and saturationconstrains (2) Different from the design methods proposedin [20 21] it is obtained that the tracking errors canasymptotically converge to zero rather than being uniformlyultimately bounded (3) The mean value theorem is used todeal with the nonaffine term with input saturation and thusthe desired asymptotic tracking performance of the closed-loop systems can be achieved by using Lyapunov stabilityanalysis
The rest of the paper is organized as follows Section 2gives the problem statement and preliminaries A noveladaptive fuzzy asymptotic tracking controller is designed inSection 3 Simulation studies are then provided in Section 4to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control methodand Section 5 draws the conclusions

Consider the nonaffine nonlinear systems described as fol-lows

where 119909 = [1199091 1199092 119909119899]119879 isin R119899 is the system state119906 isin R is the actual control input and 119889(119905) isin R is theunknown bounded external disturbanceThe unknown non-linear function 119891(sdot sdot) R119899 times R rarr R is sufficiently smoothWithout loss of generalityΔ119864119894(sdot) 119894 = 1 2 119903 represent thesystem uncertainties and are assumed to be continuous withthe approximate dimensions 120591119894(119905) is the time-varying timedelay satisfying 0 le 120591119894(119905) le 120591lowast119894 119894(119905) le 120591lowast119894 lt 1 119894 = 1 2 119903119909(119905) = 120601(119905) 119905 isin [0 120591lowast] where 120601(119905) is the initial condition
and 120591lowast = max1le119894le119903120591lowast119894 In addition sat(119906) denotes the inputsaturation which is defined by
sat (119906 (119905)) =
119906119872 119906 (119905) ge 119906119872119906 (119905) 119906119898 le 119906 (119905) le 119906119872119906119898 119906 (119905) le 119906119898
(2)
where 119906119872 and 119906119898 are known upper and lower bounds of thecontrol output 119906(119905) respectively
Moreover as in [21] (2) can be written as
sat (119906 (119905)) = 119878 (119906 (119905)) + 119863 (119906 (119905)) (3)
where the piecewise smooth function 119878(119906) is defined as
119878 (119906) =
119906119872 lowast tanh( 119906119906119872) 119906 ge 0119906119898 lowast tanh( 119906119906119898) 119906 lt 0

(4)
and 119863(119906) = sat(119906) minus 119878(119906) Furthermore the bound of 119863(119906)can be obtained as
|119863 (119906)| le |sat (119906) minus 119878 (119906)|le max 119906119872 (1 minus tanh (1)) 119906119898 (tanh (1) minus 1)= 119863
(5)
with 119863 being the upper bound between the continuousfunction sat(119906) and the smooth function 119878(119906) Consequentlyit follows from the mean value theorem that 119878(119906) = (120597119878(119906120585)120597119906)119906 + 119878(0) with 119906120585 = 120582119906 and 0 lt 120582 lt 1 Noting (3) and (4)we can obtain that
sat (119906) = 120597119878 (119906120585)120597119906 119906 + 119863 (119906) (6)
The control objective is to design an adaptive fuzzyasymptotic tracking controller 119906(119905) to ensure that all theclosed-loop signals are bounded and the system states asymp-totically stable in the presence of external disturbancesmultiple time delays and saturation constrains Besides inorder to design adaptive state feedback controller119909 = [1199091 1199092 119909119899]119879 is assumed to be measurable and the state trackingerror is defined as 119890 = 119909 minus 119909119889 with the reference signal119909119889 being 119909119889 = [119910119889 119889 119910(119899minus1)119889 ]119879 Moreover the followingassumptions are given for system (1)
Assumption 1 There exist unknown positive constants 119889 and119889119896 such that |119889(119905)| le 1198890 and |119910(119896)119889 | le 119889119896 for 119896 = 0 1 2 119899respectively

Assumption 2 The uncertain function Δ119864119894(119909 119905) is assumedto satisfy Δ119864119894(119909 119905) le 120598lowast119896 with 120598lowast119894 119894 = 1 2 119903 beingunknown positive constants
Assumption 3 (see [18 20]) For all 119909 isin R119899 and 119906 isin R insystem (5) there always exist positive constants 1198721 and 1198722such that the following inequality holds
0 lt 1198721 le 120597119891 (119909 119906)120597119906 le 1198722 (7)
Assumption 4 Given the practical system described by (1)satisfying the input saturation (2) there exists feasible actualcontrol input 119906 which can achieve the desired controlobjective
Remark 5 Clearly Assumption 1 is quite standard andmeansthat the external disturbance the reference output signaland its time derivatives are bounded respectively It followsfrom Assumption 2 that the change rate of the input gainis bounded Particularly different from [20 21] the trackingerror of this paper can asymptotically converge to zero ratherthan to a desired compact set
Similar to [10 11 16ndash18] the following fuzzy approxima-tion lemma is given by the following lemma
Lemma 6 Let 119865(119883) be a continuous function that is definedon a compact set Ω119883 For any given positive constant 120598 therealways exists a fuzzy logic system 119910(119883) in the form of (7) suchthat

Consequently the optimal parameter vectors 120579lowast of fuzzy logicsystem (FLS) is defined as

whereΩ120579 andΩ119883 are compact regions for 120579 and119883 respectivelyIn addition the fuzzy approximation error 120575lowast(119883) is defined as
119865 (119883) = 120579lowast119879120585 (119883) + 120575lowast (119883) forall119883 isin Ω119883 120579lowast isin Ω120579 (10)
3 Adaptive Fuzzy Tracking Controller Design
In this section the adaptive fuzzy asymptotic tracking controlscheme will be developed for the nonlinear system (1) withexternal disturbance multiple time delays and saturationconstrain For this purpose taking the time derivative of thetracking error 119890 = 119909 minus 119909119889 with respect to 119905 yields
119890 = 119860119890 + 119861(119891 (119909 sat (119906))
+ 119903sum119894=1
Δ119864119894 (119909 119905) 119909 (119905 minus 120591119894 (119905)) + 119889 (119905) minus 119909(119899)119889 ) (11)
where
119860 =[[[[[[[[[

119861 =[[[[[[[[[[

(12)
Then from (12)119860+119861119870 is a stablematrix by properly choosinga gain vector 119870 Moreover for any given 119876 = 119876119879 gt 0 thereexists 119875 = 119875119879 gt 0 such that the Lyapunov equation (119860 +119861119870)119879119875+119875(119860+119861119870)+(119903120578)119868 = minus119876 holds where 120578 is a positivedesign parameter
For the nonaffine term 119891(119909 sat(119906)) using the meanvalue theorem again gives 119891(119909 sat(119906)) = 119891(119909 0) + (120597119891(119909119906120577)120597119906)sat(119906) with 119906120577 = 120583119906 and 0 lt 120583 lt 1 From (6) it iseasy to see that
119891 (119909 sat (119906)) = 119891 (119909 0)+ 120597119891 (119909 119906120577)120597119906 (120597119878 (119906120585)120597119906 119906 + 119863 (119906))
= 120591119904119906 + Ψ (119909 119906) (13)
whereΨ(119909 119906) = ((120597119891(119909 119906120577)120597119906)(120597119878(119906120585)120597119906)minus120591119904)119906+119891(119909 0)+119863(119906) with 120591119904 being a positive design parameter In additionby using the expression in (10) (13) can be expressed as
119891 (119909 sat (119906)) = 120591119904119906 + 120579lowast119879120585 (119909 119890) + 120575lowast (119909 119890) forall (119909 119890) isin Ω sub R

where the approximation error 120575lowast(119909 119890) satisfies |120575lowast(119909 119890)| le120575lowast with 120575lowast being any small positive constant and Ω is anappropriate compact set Without loss of generality basedon Assumptions 1 and 2 we introduce the notions 119870lowast1 =sup119905ge0(|119909(119899)119889 (119905)| + |119889(119905)| + sum119896119894=1 119909119889(119905 minus 120591119894(119905)) + 120575lowast) and 119870lowast2 =sum119896119894=1(120598lowast2119894 (1minus120591lowast119894 )) where119870lowast1 and119870lowast2 are unknown constantsTherefore the adaptive fuzzy controller is designed as

Remark 7 The adaptive fuzzy controller (15) mainly consistsof four terms Concretely 120591minus1119904 is the positive design parameterof the adaptive control gain and the first term 119870119909 of theright hand side plays a key role for stabilizing system Thesecond term is used to decouple the nonaffine term withsaturation nonlinearity The third term and the fourth termwith adaptation laws (16) are used to deal with the effects ofmultiple time delays and external disturbance respectively
Now the stability of the resulting closed-loop system isgiven in the following theorem
Theorem 8 Consider the uncertain nonaffine nonlinear sys-tem (1) satisfying Assumptions 1ndash4 With the application ofadaptive fuzzy controller (15) and parameter updated laws (16)the tracking error of the closed-loop system can asymptoticallyconverge to zero that is lim119905rarrinfin119890(119905) = 0 for any (119909 119890) isin Ωwhich is a proper compact set

Remark 9 It should be pointed out that the control methodsproposed in [20 21] can guarantee that the tracking errorsconverge to the desired compact sets The tracking error ofthe closed-loop system can asymptotically converge to zeroby employing the adaptive control scheme in [18] howeverthis control scheme cannot deal with nonaffine nonlinearsystems with multiple time delays and saturation constrainsIn this paper based on fuzzy approximation technique andthe mean value theorem the proper nonlinear functions itis proved that the desired asymptotic tracking performanceof the closed-loop systems can be achieved via Lyapunovstability analysis

5 Conclusion
This paper studies a novel adaptive fuzzy asymptotic trackingcontrol scheme for a class of uncertain nonaffine nonlinearsystems with multiple time delays saturation constrains andexternal disturbances By using the mean value theorem andfuzzy logic system (FLS) the parameter updated laws areconstructed to estimate the unknown adaptive controllerparameters online It is also shown that the proposed controlmethod guarantees all the closed-loop system signals to beuniformly bounded and the tracking error can asymptoticallyconverge to zero based on Lyapunov-based analysis Numer-ical simulation results are provided to show the effectivenessof the proposed adaptive fuzzy tracking control designapproach

Assumption 2 The uncertain function Δ119864119894(119909 119905) is assumedto satisfy Δ119864119894(119909 119905) le 120598lowast119896 with 120598lowast119894 119894 = 1 2 119903 beingunknown positive constants
Assumption 3 (see [18 20]) For all 119909 isin R119899 and 119906 isin R insystem (5) there always exist positive constants 1198721 and 1198722such that the following inequality holds
0 lt 1198721 le 120597119891 (119909 119906)120597119906 le 1198722 (7)
Assumption 4 Given the practical system described by (1)satisfying the input saturation (2) there exists feasible actualcontrol input 119906 which can achieve the desired controlobjective
Remark 5 Clearly Assumption 1 is quite standard andmeansthat the external disturbance the reference output signaland its time derivatives are bounded respectively It followsfrom Assumption 2 that the change rate of the input gainis bounded Particularly different from [20 21] the trackingerror of this paper can asymptotically converge to zero ratherthan to a desired compact set
Similar to [10 11 16ndash18] the following fuzzy approxima-tion lemma is given by the following lemma
Lemma 6 Let 119865(119883) be a continuous function that is definedon a compact set Ω119883 For any given positive constant 120598 therealways exists a fuzzy logic system 119910(119883) in the form of (7) suchthat

Consequently the optimal parameter vectors 120579lowast of fuzzy logicsystem (FLS) is defined as

3 Adaptive Fuzzy Tracking Controller Design
In this section the adaptive fuzzy asymptotic tracking controlscheme will be developed for the nonlinear system (1) withexternal disturbance multiple time delays and saturationconstrain For this purpose taking the time derivative of thetracking error 119890 = 119909 minus 119909119889 with respect to 119905 yields
119890 = 119860119890 + 119861(119891 (119909 sat (119906))

Then from (12)119860+119861119870 is a stablematrix by properly choosinga gain vector 119870 Moreover for any given 119876 = 119876119879 gt 0 thereexists 119875 = 119875119879 gt 0 such that the Lyapunov equation (119860 +119861119870)119879119875+119875(119860+119861119870)+(119903120578)119868 = minus119876 holds where 120578 is a positivedesign parameter
For the nonaffine term 119891(119909 sat(119906)) using the meanvalue theorem again gives 119891(119909 sat(119906)) = 119891(119909 0) + (120597119891(119909119906120577)120597119906)sat(119906) with 119906120577 = 120583119906 and 0 lt 120583 lt 1 From (6) it iseasy to see that

= 120591119904119906 + Ψ (119909 119906) (13)
whereΨ(119909 119906) = ((120597119891(119909 119906120577)120597119906)(120597119878(119906120585)120597119906)minus120591119904)119906+119891(119909 0)+119863(119906) with 120591119904 being a positive design parameter In additionby using the expression in (10) (13) can be expressed as
119891 (119909 sat (119906)) = 120591119904119906 + 120579lowast119879120585 (119909 119890) + 120575lowast (119909 119890) forall (119909 119890) isin Ω sub R

Remark 7 The adaptive fuzzy controller (15) mainly consistsof four terms Concretely 120591minus1119904 is the positive design parameterof the adaptive control gain and the first term 119870119909 of theright hand side plays a key role for stabilizing system Thesecond term is used to decouple the nonaffine term withsaturation nonlinearity The third term and the fourth termwith adaptation laws (16) are used to deal with the effects ofmultiple time delays and external disturbance respectively
Now the stability of the resulting closed-loop system isgiven in the following theorem
Theorem 8 Consider the uncertain nonaffine nonlinear sys-tem (1) satisfying Assumptions 1ndash4 With the application ofadaptive fuzzy controller (15) and parameter updated laws (16)the tracking error of the closed-loop system can asymptoticallyconverge to zero that is lim119905rarrinfin119890(119905) = 0 for any (119909 119890) isin Ωwhich is a proper compact set

Remark 9 It should be pointed out that the control methodsproposed in [20 21] can guarantee that the tracking errorsconverge to the desired compact sets The tracking error ofthe closed-loop system can asymptotically converge to zeroby employing the adaptive control scheme in [18] howeverthis control scheme cannot deal with nonaffine nonlinearsystems with multiple time delays and saturation constrainsIn this paper based on fuzzy approximation technique andthe mean value theorem the proper nonlinear functions itis proved that the desired asymptotic tracking performanceof the closed-loop systems can be achieved via Lyapunovstability analysis

5 Conclusion
This paper studies a novel adaptive fuzzy asymptotic trackingcontrol scheme for a class of uncertain nonaffine nonlinearsystems with multiple time delays saturation constrains andexternal disturbances By using the mean value theorem andfuzzy logic system (FLS) the parameter updated laws areconstructed to estimate the unknown adaptive controllerparameters online It is also shown that the proposed controlmethod guarantees all the closed-loop system signals to beuniformly bounded and the tracking error can asymptoticallyconverge to zero based on Lyapunov-based analysis Numer-ical simulation results are provided to show the effectivenessof the proposed adaptive fuzzy tracking control designapproach

Remark 7 The adaptive fuzzy controller (15) mainly consistsof four terms Concretely 120591minus1119904 is the positive design parameterof the adaptive control gain and the first term 119870119909 of theright hand side plays a key role for stabilizing system Thesecond term is used to decouple the nonaffine term withsaturation nonlinearity The third term and the fourth termwith adaptation laws (16) are used to deal with the effects ofmultiple time delays and external disturbance respectively
Now the stability of the resulting closed-loop system isgiven in the following theorem
Theorem 8 Consider the uncertain nonaffine nonlinear sys-tem (1) satisfying Assumptions 1ndash4 With the application ofadaptive fuzzy controller (15) and parameter updated laws (16)the tracking error of the closed-loop system can asymptoticallyconverge to zero that is lim119905rarrinfin119890(119905) = 0 for any (119909 119890) isin Ωwhich is a proper compact set

5 Conclusion
This paper studies a novel adaptive fuzzy asymptotic trackingcontrol scheme for a class of uncertain nonaffine nonlinearsystems with multiple time delays saturation constrains andexternal disturbances By using the mean value theorem andfuzzy logic system (FLS) the parameter updated laws areconstructed to estimate the unknown adaptive controllerparameters online It is also shown that the proposed controlmethod guarantees all the closed-loop system signals to beuniformly bounded and the tracking error can asymptoticallyconverge to zero based on Lyapunov-based analysis Numer-ical simulation results are provided to show the effectivenessof the proposed adaptive fuzzy tracking control designapproach

5 Conclusion
This paper studies a novel adaptive fuzzy asymptotic trackingcontrol scheme for a class of uncertain nonaffine nonlinearsystems with multiple time delays saturation constrains andexternal disturbances By using the mean value theorem andfuzzy logic system (FLS) the parameter updated laws areconstructed to estimate the unknown adaptive controllerparameters online It is also shown that the proposed controlmethod guarantees all the closed-loop system signals to beuniformly bounded and the tracking error can asymptoticallyconverge to zero based on Lyapunov-based analysis Numer-ical simulation results are provided to show the effectivenessof the proposed adaptive fuzzy tracking control designapproach
