Finite-Time Trajectory Tracking for Marine Vessel by Nonsingular Backstepping Controller With Unknown External Disturbance

In this paper, a novel nonsingular finite-time backstepping controller is constructed for trajectory tracking of marine vessel subject to unknown external disturbances. Firstly, in the presence of disturbances, a disturbance observer (DO) is proposed to estimate and compensate the disturbances exactly in finite time. Secondly, a finite-time tracking controller is designed in the classical backstepping procedure, however, the inevitable singularity appears in calculating the derivative of virtual control. Furthermore, for overcoming this singularity, a nonsingular finite-time backstepping controller is designed by adopting a finite-time command filter to estimate the derivative, instead of calculating it directly. Theoretical analysis demonstrates the closed-loop system is finite-time stable. Finally, simulation results and comparisons illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
