This work investigates a finite-time adaptive fuzzy tracking control problem for a class of nonstrict feedback nonlinear systems from a new point of view. A new concept, named finite-time performance function (FTPF), is defined in this paper for the first time. Moreover, a finite-time adaptive state feedback fuzzy tracking controller is derived based on fuzzy approximation, backstepping technique and prescribed performance control (PPC), which guarantees that all the signals of the closed-loop system are bounded, the output tracking error converges to a prescribed arbitrarily small region within a finite-time interval, and maximum overshoot is not more than a predefined level. In addition, a controller design process is given which is less complex than the existing finite-time control design methods. Three simulation studies are provided to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the theoretical finding in this study.
