Adaptive fuzzy output feedback containment control of second-order systems with unknown dynamics

In this paper, the adaptive fuzzy output feedback containment control problem is investigated for second-order systems with unknown dynamics and immeasurable states under directed communication graphs. Fuzzy logic systems are employed to approximate the unknown dynamics, and an adaptive fuzzy error observer is designed using the relative position information. Based on the designed observer, an adaptive fuzzy output feedback containment control scheme is developed to realize that the all followers are ultimately driven to dynamic convex hull formed by the multiple leaders with a bounded containment error. A simulation example is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
