Abstract
This paper proposes a novel reinforcement learning (RL)-based tracking control scheme with fixed-time prescribed performance for a reusable launch vehicle subject to parametric uncertainties, external disturbances, and input constraints. First, a fixed-time prescribed performance function is employed to restrain attitude tracking errors, and an equivalent unconstrained system is derived via an error transformation technique. Then, a hyperbolic tangent function is incorporated into the optimal performance index of the unconstrained system to tackle the input constraints. Subsequently, an actor-critic RL framework with super-twisting-like sliding mode control is constructed to establish a practical solution for the optimal control problem. Benefiting from the proposed scheme, the robustness of the RL-based controller against unknown dynamics is enhanced, and the control performance can be qualitatively prearranged by users. Theoretical analysis shows that the attitude tracking errors converge to a preset region within a preassigned fixed time, and the weight estimation errors of the actor-critic networks are uniformly ultimately bounded. Finally, comparative numerical simulation results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness and improved performance of the proposed control scheme.
