Abstract
This paper is concerned with the fixed-time consensus tracking problem
for multi-AUV (autonomous underwater vehicle) systems with uncertain parameters
and external disturbances. Firstly, a fixed-time terminal sliding mode
is proposed, which can avoid the singularity problem. Then, a continuous
distributed consensus tracking control law is designed based on Neutral
Network approximation technique, which can guarantee the consensus tracking
errors converge to the desired regions in fixed time. A simulation example
is given to show the effectiveness of proposed methods.
