Prescribed-Time Fractional Order Control of DWR via Time-Varying Scaling Function by Pengfei Zhang, Qiyuan Chen, Ye Chen

“…Compared with existing methods, while ensuring the correlation between velocity and orientation error, the multibalance point risk caused by large angle errors is avoided. Then, a prescribed-time fractional order position controller based on a time-varying scaling function is proposed to stabilize the kinematic system of DWR in the prescribed time. …”
