Abstract

This paper presents a fixed-time fault-tolerant control strategy based on an improved long short-term memory network for dynamic positioning of unmanned marine vehicles subject to signal quantization, disturbances, and input saturation. Firstly, an improved long short-term memory network optimized by an adaptive mixed-gradient algorithm is developed to accurately estimate external disturbances. Secondly, a fixed-time extended state observer is designed to rapidly predict thruster faults. Subsequently, within a fixed-time control framework, a novel terminal sliding-mode surface incorporating signal quantization parameters is constructed. In addition, a dynamic uniform quantization strategy with tunable sensitivity is introduced to effectively alleviate the performance degradation induced by quantization errors. Based on this, a fixed-time fault-tolerant controller is constructed. Finally, simulation results and comparative experiments are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
