Smooth Zone Barrier Lyapunov Functions for Nonlinear Constrained Control Systems
This paper introduces the Smooth Zone Barrier Lyapunov Function (s-ZBLF) for output and full-state constrained nonlinear control systems. Unlike traditional BLF methods, where control effort continuously increases as the state moves toward the constraint boundaries, the s-ZBLF method keeps the control effort nearly zero near the origin, with a more aggressive increase as the system approaches the boundary. However, unlike previous works where control effort was zero within a predefined safe region around the origin, the s-ZBLF overcomes the disadvantage of discontinuous control activation by providing a smooth, gradual increase in control effort as the state nears the constraints. This smooth transition improves continuity in the control response and enhances stability by reducing chattering. Additionally, the s-ZBLF provides the advantage of minimal control effort in regions far from the constraints, reducing energy consumption and actuator wear. Two forms of the s-ZBLF, logarithmic-based and rational-based, are presented. Theoretical analysis guarantees that all system states remain within the defined constraints, ensuring boundedness and stability of the closed-loop system. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method in handling constrained nonlinear systems.
