Finite-time feedback control of input-delay system with nonlinear saturating actuators is addressed in this paper. First, a state feedback controller is designed to make the closed-loop systems finite-time stable. Sufficient conditions which can guarantee finite-time stability of an input-delay system with saturating actuators are given in terms of the comparison function method. For the case where the states cannot be measured, an observer is presented to estimate the unavailable states and the observer-controller compensator strategy is proposed. Finally, an example is employed to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method. It is not difficult to conclude from the analysis and the simulation results that by virtue of the proposed method the transient characteristics of the closed-loop system can be easily guaranteed to comply with the requirements of the practice.
