Event-Triggered Adaptive Neural Network Backstepping Sliding Mode Control for Fractional Order Chaotic Systems Synchronization With Input Delay

This paper investigates the fractional order chaotic systems synchronization with input delay. To reduce the utilization of communication resources and achieve system synchronization, an adaptive neural network backstepping sliding mode controller is proposed based on event-triggered scheme without Zeno behavior. To avoid “explosion of complexity” and obtain fractional derivatives for virtual control functions continuously, the fractional order dynamic surface control (DSC) technology is introduced into the controller. The sliding term is introduced to enhance robustness. The Pade delay approximation method is used to handle the input delay, which can reduce the analysis complexity of fractional order chaotic systems with input delay. The unknown nonlinear functions and uncertain disturbances are approximated by the RBF neural network. An observer is used for state estimation of the fractional order system. By applying the Lyapunov stability theory, we can prove that the all closed-loop signals are bounded. Examples and simulations prove the feasibility of the proposed control method.
