Parallel Distributed Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control for Nonlinear Mismatched Uncertain Systems

A new design approach of a parallel distributed fuzzy sliding mode controller for nonlinear systems with mismatched time varying uncertainties is presented in this paper. The nonlinear system is approximated by the Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy linear model. The approximation error between the nonlinear system and the fuzzy linear model is considered as one part of the uncertainty in the uncertain nonlinear system. The time varying uncertainties are assumed to have the format which enables the design of the coefficient matrix of the sliding function to satisfy a sliding coefficient matching condition. With the sliding coefficient matching condition satisfied, a parallel distributed fuzzy sliding mode controller (PDFSC) is designed. The stability and the sliding mode of the fuzzy sliding control system are guaranteed. Also, the nonlinear system is shown to be invariant on the sliding surface. Moreover, the chattering around the sliding surface in the sliding mode control can be reduced by the proposed design approach. Simulation results are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy sliding mode controller. This work is partly supported by the the R.O.C.

Adaptive fuzzy terminal sliding mode controller for linear systems with mismatched time-varying uncertainties

A new design approach of an adaptive fuzzy terminal sliding mode controller for linear systems with mismatched time-varying uncertainties is presented in this paper. A fuzzy terminal sliding mode controller is designed to retain the advantages of the terminal sliding mode controller and to reduce the chattering occurred with the terminal sliding mode controller. The sufficient condition is provided for the uncertain system to be invariant on the sliding surface. The parameters of the output fuzzy sets in the fuzzy mechanism are adapted on-line to improve the performance of the fuzzy sliding mode control system. The bounds of the uncertainties are not required to be known in advance for the presented adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller. The stability of the fuzzy control system is also guaranteed. Moreover, the chattering around the sliding surface in the sliding mode control can be reduced by the proposed design approach. Simulation results are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive fuzzy terminal sliding mode controller.     

Design of an adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control for uncertain discrete-time nonlinear systems based on noisy measurements

This paper presents the design of an adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control (AFSMC) for uncertain discrete-time nonlinear dynamic systems. The dynamic systems are described by a discrete-time state equation with nonlinear uncertainties, and the uncertainties include the modelling errors and the external disturbances to be unknown but nonlinear with the bounded properties. The states are measured by the restriction of measurement sensors and the contamination with independent measurement noises. The nonlinear uncertainties are approximated by using the fuzzy IF-THEN rules based on the universal approximation theorem, and the approximation error is compensated by adding an adaptive complementary term to the proposed AFSMC. The fuzzy inference approach based on the extended single input rule modules is proposed to reduce the number of the fuzzy IF-THEN rules. The estimates for the un-measurable states and the adjustable parameters are obtained by using the weighted least squares estimator and its simplified one. It is proved that under some conditions the estimation errors will remain in the vicinity of zero as time increases, and the states are ultimately bounded subject to the proposed AFSMC. The effectiveness of the proposed method is indicated through the simulation experiment of a simple numerical system.

A novel Takagi-Sugeno-based robust adaptive fuzzy sliding-mode controller

In this paper, a nonlinear dynamic system is first approximated by N fuzzy-based linear state-space subsystems. To track a trajectory dominant by a specific frequency, the reference models with desired amplitude and phase features are established by the same fuzzy sets of the system rule. Similarly, the same fuzzy sets of the system rule are employed to design robust fuzzy sliding-mode control (RFSMC) and adaptive fuzzy sliding-mode control (AFSMC). The difference between RFSMC and AFSMC is that AFSMC contains an updating law to learn system uncertainties and then an extra compensation is designed. It is different from the most previous papers to learn the whole nonlinear functions. As the norm of the sliding surface is inside of a defined set, the updating law starts; simultaneously, as it is outside of the other set, the updating law stops. For the purpose of smoothing the possibility of discontinuous control input, a transition between RFSMC and AFSMC is also assigned. Under the circumstances, the proposed control [robust adaptive fuzzy sliding-mode control (RAFSMC)] can automatically tune as a RFSMC or an AFSMC; then the advantages coming from the RFSMC and AFSMC are obtained. Finally, the stabilities of the overall system of RFSMC, AFSMC, and RAFSMC are verified by Lyapunov stability theory. The compared simulations among RFSMC, AFSMC, and RAFSMC are also carried out to confirm the usefulness of the proposed control scheme.     

Adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control with chattering elimination for nonlinear SISO systems

This work presents an adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller (AFSMC) that combines a robust proportional integral control law for use in designing single-input single-output (SISO) nonlinear systems with uncertainties and external disturbances. The fuzzy logic system is used to approximate the unknown system function and the AFSMC algorithm is designed by used of sliding mode control techniques. Based on the Lyapunov theory, the proportional integral control law is designed to eliminate the chattering action of the control signal. The simplicity of the proposed scheme facilitates its implementation and the overall control scheme guarantees the global asymptotic stability in the Lyapunov sense if all the signals involved are uniformly bounded. Simulation studies have shown that the proposed controller shows superior tracking performance.

Design of sliding mode controllers for bilinear systems with time varying uncertainties.

Sliding mode controllers for the bilinear systems with time varying uncertainties are developed in this paper. The bilinear coefficient matching condition which is similar to the traditional matching condition for linear system is defined for the homogeneous bilinear systems. It can be seen that the bilinear coefficient matching condition is very limited and is not generally applicable to the nonhomogeneous bilinear system. Thus, the sliding coefficient matching condition is also considered for the bilinear systems with time varying uncertainties. Then, the sufficient conditions are provided for the reaching mode of the time varying uncertain bilinear systems to be guaranteed by the designed sliding mode controllers. Moreover, the stability of the uncertain bilinear systems with the sliding mode controller is discussed. Simulation results are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed sliding mode controllers.

Fuzzy sliding mode control for an under-actuated system with mismatched uncertainties

This article presents a robust fuzzy sliding mode controller. The methodology of sliding mode control provides an easy way to control under-actuated nonlinear systems with uncertainties. The structure of the sliding surface is designed as follows. First, decouple the entire system into second-order systems so that each subsystem has a separate control target expressed in terms of a sliding surface. Second, from the sliding surface of subsystems, organize the main sliding surface system. Third, generate a control input for the main sliding surface to make whole subsystems move toward their sliding surface. A fuzzy controller is used to obtain a smooth boundary layer to the sliding surface. Finally, the fuzzy sliding mode controller presented is used to control an under-actuated nonlinear system, and confirms the validity of the proposed approach and its robustness to uncertainties.     

Robust control of systems with fuzzy representation of uncertainties

In this paper, an approach is proposed to design robust controllers for uncertain systems with the linguistic uncertainties represented by fuzzy sets. With a provided technique, the fuzzy sets are best approximated by intervals (crisp sets). Then the Kharitonovs theorem is applied to construct a robust PID controller for the uncertain plant with time-invariant uncertainties represented by interval models. Also, for the uncertain system with linguistic values of the time-varying uncertainties best approximated by intervals (which are bounded), a robust sliding mode controller is developed to stabilize the uncertain system if the sliding coefficient conditions are satisfied. Moreover, the best approximation intervals are shown to be more related to the possibility distribution of the elements in the universes of discourse of fuzzy sets than the type of membership functions used for fuzzy sets. Examples and simulation results are included to indicate the design approach and the effectiveness of the proposed robust controller.This work is partly supported by the the R.O.C.

Robust integral sliding mode control for uncertain stochastic systems with time-varying delay

This paper is concerned with sliding mode control for uncertain stochastic systems with time-varying delay. Both time-varying parameter uncertainties and an unknown nonlinear function may appear in the controlled system. An integral sliding surface is first constructed. Then, by means of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), a sufficient condition is derived to guarantee the global stochastic stability of the stochastic dynamics in the specified switching surface for all admissible uncertainties. The synthesized sliding mode controller guarantees the reachability of the specified sliding surface. Finally, a simulation example is presented to illustrate the proposed method.     

Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control for Active Suspension System with Proportional Differential Sliding Mode Observer

In this paper, a generalized augmented transformation is considered for the quarter active suspension system with uncertainties. Specifically, the model uncertainties are converted to the augmented states and a new proportion differential sliding mode observer is used to estimate state variables and model uncertainties. A differential geometric method is applied to linearize the nonlinear suspension model. In order to weaken the vibration effect of sliding mode control force and reduce energy consumption, a fuzzy sliding mode controller is designed for the active suspension system and the fuzzy controller is applied to adjust switching control gain according to the reaching condition of sliding mode surface. The simulations are conducted to illustrate the effectiveness and advantages of this proposed observer and control strategy.     

Adaptive fuzzy controller with sliding surface for vehicle suspension control

Since the hydraulic actuating suspension system has nonlinear and time-varying behavior, it is difficult to establish an accurate model for designing a model-based controller. Here, an adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller is proposed to suppress the sprung mass position oscillation due to road surface variation. This intelligent control strategy combines an adaptive rule with fuzzy and sliding mode control algorithms. It has online learning ability to deal with the system time-varying and nonlinear uncertainty behaviors, and adjust the control rules parameters. Only eleven fuzzy rules are required for this active suspension system and these fuzzy control rules can be established and modified continuously by online learning. The experimental results show that this intelligent control algorithm effectively suppresses the oscillation amplitude of the sprung mass with respect to various road surface disturbances.     

Quasi sliding mode‐based single input fuzzy self‐tuning decoupled fuzzy PI control for robot manipulators with uncertainty

This paper presents a robust adaptive control strategy for robot manipulators, based on the coupling of the fuzzy logic control with the so‐called sliding mode control (SMC) approach. The motivation for using SMC in robotics mainly relies on its appreciable features. However, the drawbacks of the conventional SMC, such as chattering effect and required a priori knowledge of the bounds of uncertainties can be destructive. In this paper, these problems are suitably circumvented by adopting a reduced rule base single input fuzzy self tuning decoupled fuzzy proportional integral sliding mode control approach. In this new approach a decoupled fuzzy proportional integral control is used and a reduced rule base single input fuzzy self‐tuning controller as a supervisory fuzzy system is added to adaptively tune the output control gain of the decoupled fuzzy proportional integral control. Moreover, it is proved that the fuzzy control surface of the single‐input fuzzy rule base is very close to the input/output relation of a straight line. Therefore, a varying output gain decoupled fuzzy proportional integral sliding mode control approach using an approximate line equation is then proposed. The stability of the system is guaranteed in the sense of the Lyapunov theorem. Simulations using the dynamic model of a 3DOF planar manipulator with uncertainties show the effectiveness of the approach in high speed trajectory tracking problems. The simulation results that are compared with the results of conventional SMC indicate that the control performance of the robot system is satisfactory and the proposed approach can achieve favorable tracking performance, and it is robust with regard to uncertainties and disturbances.

Design of decentralised variable structure observer for mismatched nonlinear uncertain large-scale systems

Although the state feedback approach is quite popular in control engineering, it cannot be used while the system states cannot be measured. The state observer approach may be used to overcome such a shortcoming. Also, most control systems have become larger and more complicated; therefore, based on the variable structure control theory, a new decentralised variable structure observer (DVSO) for a class of nonlinear large-scale systems with mismatched uncertainties will be considered in this article. The switching surface function is determined such that the equivalent system will have the desired behaviour once the system reaches the switching surface. And then a new DVSO is designed such that the estimated states will approach the system states. Using the Lyapunov stability theory and using the generalised matrix inverse concept, the uncertain nonlinear error system trajectories can be driven onto the sliding manifold and then the existence of a sliding mode and the attractiveness to the sliding surface is ensured. With the proposed DVSO, the estimation errors asymptotically tend to zero if the matching condition is satisfied, and the effects of the mismatched parts can be uniformly ultimately bounded if the matching condition is not satisfied. Finally, a numerical example with a succession of computer simulations is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
