Finite-time estimator with enhanced robustness and transient performance applied to adaptive problems

In this paper, a dynamic regressor extension and mixed estimator is proposed with finite-time convergence and freedom to choose its time-varying adaptation gain and its derivation order. This freedom is exploited to enhance the transient and robustness performance of the estimation by analytically establishing the effects of both variables. The proposed estimator is used to design adaptive controllers and observers for nonlinear systems, which exhibit exponential order of convergence at an arbitrary rate of decay with robust and improved transient properties. These results are illustrated in a tracking control of nonlinear systems with parametric uncertainty.
