Abstract

This paper addresses the finite-time tracking issue for nonlinear quantized systems with unmeasurable states. Compared with the existing researches, the finite-time quantized feedback control is considered for the first time. By proposing a new finite-time stability criterion and designing a state observer, a novel adaptive neural output-feedback control strategy is raised by backstepping technique. Under the presented control scheme, the finite-time quantized feedback control problem is coped with without limiting assumption for nonlinear functions.
