“…If
can be prescribed as any number (usual in the design), then prescribed‐time control will be used instead of finite‐ and fixed‐time control. The problem of predefining the settling time in finite‐time control, which might be referred to as the prescribed‐time control problem, was investigated in many references such as References
44,46,48–51. Though the constant
in the fixed‐time control scheme can be assigned in advance by suitably assigning control parameters, the true settling time still depends on the initial condition, which is different from the prescribed‐time control scheme where the true settling time is independent of the initial condition.…”
