This work focuses on fixed-time synchronized trajectory tracking control for unmanned airships subject to time-varying error constraints and unknown disturbances. First, to guarantee strict adherence to prescribed performance bounds, an error transformation function (ETF) is integrated into the control algorithm, which can ensure all tracking errors remain within specified constraints throughout the convergence process. Then, a Norm-Normalized sign (NNS) function is incorporated to develop the control scheme, guaranteeing simultaneous convergence of all tracking error components. Additionally, a novel fixed-time synchronized disturbance observer (FTSDO) is constructed and implemented to achieve precise disturbance estimation while ensuring synchronous convergence of the estimation errors. Finally, the developed control strategy is analytically verified to guarantee fixed-time synchronized stability (FTSS). To assess its performance, multiple simulations are executed. The results clearly demonstrate the proposed control scheme enables the airship to track the prescribed trajectory precisely in fixed time, and the convergence of all tracking error components is achieved synchronously.
