A novel adaptive high-order sliding mode control based on integral sliding mode

This paper presents an adaptive high-order sliding mode control scheme targeting for uncertain minimum phase nonlinear single-input-single-output (SISO) systems, which can be equivalently formulated as the finite-time stabilization of high-order input-output dynamics subject to the uncertainties of parameters such as a chain of integrators. The proposed controller is derived from the concept of integral sliding mode and consists of two parts, one part of which achieves the finite-time stabilization of the high-order input-output dynamics without uncertainties by solving a finite-horizon optimal control problem with a free-final-state. The other part adopts the adaptive sliding mode control technique considering the practical bounded uncertainties, by which a modified switching gain adaptation algorithm is developed so that the on-line switching gain selection can be executed and the upper bounds of the uncertainties are not requisite in advance. As a result, a high-order sliding mode is established, ensuring the sliding variables and its high-order derivatives converge to an arbitrarily small vicinity of the origin in finite time. Therefore, the proposed controller achieves fixed convergence time and further improves strong robustness against bounded uncertainties with lower chattering and the easy implementation. Simulation results are presented in detail to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed algorithm.     

High‐order sliding mode control design based on adaptive terminal sliding mode

High‐order sliding mode control techniques are proposed for uncertain nonlinear SISO systems with bounded uncertainties based on two different terminal sliding mode approaches. The tracking error of the output converges to zero in finite time by designing a terminal sliding mode controller. In addition, the adaptive control method is employed to identify bounded uncertainties for eliminating the requirement of boundaries needed in the conventional design. The controllers are derived using Lyapunov theory, so the stability of the closed‐loop system is guaranteed. In the first technique, the developed procedure removes the reaching phase of sliding mode and realizes global robustness. The proposed algorithms ensure establishment of high‐order sliding mode. An illustrative example of a car control demonstrates effectiveness of the presented designs. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Decentralized sliding mode control for a class of nonlinear interconnected systems by static state feedback

In this paper, a class of interconnected systems is considered, where the nominal isolated systems are fully nonlinear. A robust decentralized sliding mode control based on static state feedback is developed. By local coordinate transformation and feedback linearization, the interconnected system is transformed to a new regular form. A composite sliding surface which is a function of the system state variables is proposed and the stability of the corresponding sliding mode dynamics is analyzed. A new reachability condition is proposed and a robust decentralized sliding mode control is then designed to drive the system states to the sliding surface in finite time and maintain a sliding motion thereafter. Both uncertainties and interconnections are allowed to be unmatched and are assumed to be bounded by nonlinear functions. The bounds on the uncertainties and interconnections have more general forms when compared with existing work. A MATLAB simulation example is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

New methodologies for adaptive sliding mode control

This article proposes new methodologies for the design of adaptive sliding mode control. The goal is to obtain a robust sliding mode adaptive-gain control law with respect to uncertainties and perturbations without the knowledge of uncertainties/perturbations bound (only the boundness feature is known). The proposed approaches consist in having a dynamical adaptive control gain that establishes a sliding mode in finite time. Gain dynamics also ensures that there is no overestimation of the gain with respect to the real a priori unknown value of uncertainties. The efficacy of both proposed algorithms is confirmed on a tutorial example and while controlling an electropneumatic actuator.     

Robust sliding mode control of uncertain nonlinear systems

A dynamic sliding mode controller design method is proposed for multiple input-output systems with additive uncertainties. A previous result on the stability of triangular systems is generalised to the case of uniform ultimate boundedness of controlled triangular systems. This is used to prove the stability of the overall closed-loop system. The uncertain system with appropriately chosen sliding mode control is shown to be ultimately bounded if the zero dynamics of the nominal system are uniformly asymptotically (exponentially) stable. The design method is demonstrated with two examples.     

Global second‐order sliding mode control for nonlinear uncertain systems

Second‐order sliding mode (SOSM) control is used to keep exactly a constraint σ of the second relative degree or to avoid chattering phenomenon. Yet, the traditional SOSM controllers are designed based upon the assumption that the uncertainties or their derivatives are bounded by positive constants. In this paper, a global SOSM controller is designed for a general class of single‐input–single‐output nonlinear systems with uncertainties bounded by positive functions. Moreover, a variable‐gain robust exact differentiator is developed such that the SOSM controllers with finite‐time convergence can also be implemented even when the derivative of the constraint σ is unavailable. Simulation results are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Second‐order sliding mode controller design subject to mismatched unbounded perturbations

The dynamics of the second‐order sliding mode (SOSM) can be obtained by directly taking the second derivative on the sliding variable when it has a relative degree of 2 with respect to the control input. However, there will always appear some state‐dependent certain or uncertain terms in the first derivative of the sliding variable, and the derivative directly imposed on these terms could enlarge the uncertainties in the control channel. One method to reduce the uncertainties in the control channel is to hold this information in the dynamics of the first derivative of the sliding variable, while the original SOSM dynamics could be transformed to be a SOSM system with a mismatched unbounded perturbation. This paper focuses on the controller design problem for SOSM dynamics subject to mismatched unbounded perturbation. By using Lyapunov analysis, a novel backstepping‐like design methodology will be proposed. The rigorous mathematical proof will show that under the derived SOSM controller, the closed‐loop sliding mode dynamics is globally finite‐time stable. Meanwhile, the frequently used constant upper bound assumptions for the standard SOSM system can also be extended to the state‐dependent hypotheses in this paper. An academic example is illustrated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
