Abstract

Abstract

This paper investigates the fixed-time stability theorem and state-feedback controller design for stochastic nonlinear systems. We propose an improved fixed-time Lyapunov theorem with a more rigorous and reasonable proof procedure. In particular, an important corollary is obtained, which can give a less conservative upper-bound estimate of the settling time. Based on the backstepping technique and the addition of a power integrator method, a state-feedback controller is skillfully designed for a class of stochastic nonlinear systems. It is proved that the proposed controller can render the closed-loop system fixed-time stable in probability with the help of the proposed fixed-time stability criteria. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed controller is demonstrated by simulation examples and comparisons.
