Adaptive sliding‐mode control for Mars entry trajectory tracking with finite‐time convergence

This paper presents a novel adaptive sliding‐mode control (ASMC) method for Mars entry guidance and the finite‐time convergence in the presence of large uncertainties can be guaranteed. With the help of gain adaptive law, the nonoverestimating value of control gains can be achieved, and then, the chattering can be attenuated by the proposed ASMC method. Meanwhile, the extended state observer is introduced to estimate and compensate for uncertainties and the nonoverestimating problem is resolved further. In addition, the proposed method does not require any knowledge on the upper bound of uncertainty, which yields to be used in practical systems. Finally, the numerical simulation results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed guidance law.     

A Novel Sliding Mode Control for a Class of Second‐order Mechanical Systems

This paper considers the tracking control problem of a class of second‐order mechanical systems involving parametric uncertainty and external disturbance by a sliding mode control (SMC) without reaching phase. Specifically, an SMC strategy with modified variable‐gain proportional–integral–derivative (PID)‐type sliding function is proposed, by which the existence of a sliding mode throughout an entire response of the system starting from the initial time instance is ensured. Meanwhile, the introduction of a variable gain in the sliding function design effectively solves the dilemma between quicker response and smaller overshoot. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is verified by both theoretical analysis and simulation results.     

Adaptive sensorless robust control of AC drives based on sliding mode control theory

This paper focuses in the design of a new adaptive sensorless robust control to improve the trajectory tracking performance of induction motors. The proposed design employs the so‐called vector (or field oriented) control theory for the induction motor drives, being the designed control law based on an integral sliding‐mode algorithm that overcomes the system uncertainties. This sliding‐mode control law incorporates an adaptive switching gain in order to avoid the need of calculating an upper limit for the system uncertainties. The proposed design also includes a new method in order to estimate the rotor speed. In this method, the rotor speed estimation error is presented as a first‐order simple function based on the difference between the real stator currents and the estimated stator currents. The stability analysis of the proposed controller under parameter uncertainties and load disturbances is provided using the Lyapunov stability theory. The simulated results show, on the one hand that the proposed controller with the proposed rotor speed estimator provides high‐performance dynamic characteristics, and on the other hand that this scheme is robust with respect to plant parameter variations and external load disturbances. Finally, experimental results show the performance of the proposed control scheme. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Intelligent tracking control of a dual‐arm wheeled mobile manipulator with dynamic uncertainties

This paper presents an intelligent control approach that incorporates sliding mode control (SMC) and fuzzy neural network (FNN) into the implementation of back‐stepping control for a path tracking problem of a dual‐arm wheeled mobile manipulator subject to dynamic uncertainties and nonholonomic constraints. By using the back‐stepping technique, the system equations are reformulated into two levels: the kinematic level and the dynamic level. A sliding manifold is constructed by considering the disturbance free kinematic level equations only. With all the system uncertainties concentrated in the dynamic level, an FNN controller associated with a switching type of control law is employed to enforce sliding mode on the prescribed manifold. All parameter adjustment rules for the proposed controller are derived from the Lyapunov theory such that uniform ultimate boundedness for both the tracking error and the FNN weighting updates is ensured. A simulation study, which compares different control design approaches, is included to illustrate the promise of the proposed SMC–FNN method. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Quantized sliding mode control in delta operator framework

This paper is concerned with quantized sliding mode control in the unified delta operator system framework. To solve the quantization measurement saturating problem, a dynamic quantization strategy including discrete on‐line open‐loop zooming‐out and closed‐loop zooming‐in policies is presented. By analyzing the sign relation between the traditional linear switching function and the quantized linear switching function, a novel quantized sliding mode control method is proposed, and both the amplitude of the control gain and the value of the quantization measurement saturating parameter are reduced compared with previous results. Some simulation results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Synchronization and Tracking of Multi‐Spacecraft Formation Attitude Control Using Adaptive Sliding Mode

This paper presents the finite‐time attitude synchronization and tracking control method of undirected multi‐spacecraft formation with external disturbances. First, a modified adaptive nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode surface (ANFTSMS) is designed by introducing a user‐defined function, both of which avoid the singularity problem and continuous sliding surface, and, therefore, can freely adjust relative weighting between angular velocity error and attitude error adaptively, such that the controller can provide sufficient maneuvers and precision. This provides designers with a new technique to adjust and improve formation control performance. Second, by applying the ANFTSMS associated with adaptation, two proposed decentralized ANFTSM‐controllers provide finite‐time convergence, robustness to disturbance, and chattering free for continuous design. Finally, simulation results validate the proposed algorithms.     

Adaptive Terminal Sliding Mode Control for Motion Tracking of a Micropositioning System

This paper presents the design of a novel adaptive terminal sliding mode controller (ATSMC) and its application to motion tracking control of a piezoelectric‐driven micropositioning system. A nonsingular terminal sliding surface is used to achieve fast and finite‐time convergence for the trajectory tracking, and also to avoid the singularity phenomenon in traditional terminal sliding mode design. An adaptive gain law is developed to update the gain of the proposed controller and to provide stable and chattering‐free control action. The stability of the control system has been demonstrated in the sense of Lyapunov. The ATSMC scheme is established based on the output feedback only, which does not require a state observer and facilitates an easy implementation. The proposed controller is implemented on a field‐programmable gate array (FPGA) platform. Comparison study with three conventional controllers has been conducted. Experimental results show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.     

Decentralized Observer Design for a Class of Nonlinear Uncertain Large Scale Systems with Lumped Perturbations

Many valuable properties of the state feedback method can not be applied to some class of control systems while some of the system states cannot be measured directly. An attractive alternative approach is to make good use of a state observer. In this paper, a new decentralized sliding mode observer (DSMO) is proposed for a class of nonlinear uncertain large‐scale systems (LSS) with lumped perturbations based on the sliding mode control (SMC) theory. Our main result presented here is that we introduce a new switching term to the traditional LSS observer design for a class of large‐scale system to generate a new decentralized sliding mode observer. The generalized matrix inverse concept is adopted to avoid using the un‐measurable state and the global reaching condition of the sliding mode for each error subsystem is guaranteed. The stability of each equivalent error subsystem is verified based on the strictly positive real concept. It also shows that the investigated uncertain large‐scale systems still possesses the property of insensitivity to the lumped perturbations as does the traditional linear system. Moreover, the state transformation approach is no longer needed as there is no longer concern about the problems of finding a suitable transformation or indirect estimated states, since the proposed DSMO is not based on the transformed system model. Finally, a numerical example with a series of computer simulations is given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed decentralized sliding mode observer.

Adaptive sliding mode control of uncertain nonlinear systems with preassigned settling time and its applications

This paper investigates the adaptive tracking control of second‐order nonlinear systems with nonlinearly parameterized uncertainties and disturbances, as well as multiplicative uncertainty in the control coefficient matrix. A novel adaptive function augmented sliding mode control approach is proposed such that the tracking error converges to a neighborhood of zero with the preassigned size within the preassigned settling time. In the proposed control scheme, the control gains increase as the adaptive estimate values increase only when necessary, that is, when the current control gains are not big enough to suppress the uncertainties or disturbances; as a result, the conservativeness of control design caused by unnecessary high control gains can be effectively reduced. Moreover, the chattering phenomenon well known in the sliding mode control is eliminated by using the saturation function to replace the signum function, and the possible persistent increasing problem of the adaptive estimate values due to measurement disturbances or noises on the feedback is also well addressed by introducing “dead‐zone” nonlinearities in the adaptive laws. In addition, an improved method to construct the desired error trajectory is proposed, and this method could avoid the large undershoot‐like or overshoot‐like phenomena, which the traditional one may result in. The obtained results are finally applied to the motion control of the underwater vehicle and the rendezvous control of spacecraft, and the simulation results illustrate the effectiveness and the advantages of the proposed control approach.

FPGA‐based adaptive dynamic sliding‐mode neural control for a brushless DC motor

In the adaptive neural control design, since the number of hidden neurons is finite for real‐time applications, the approximation errors introduced by the neural network cannot be inevitable. To ensure the stability of the adaptive neural control system, a switching compensator is designed to dispel the approximation error. However, it will lead to substantial chattering in the control effort. In this paper, an adaptive dynamic sliding‐mode neural control (ADSNC) system composed of a neural controller and a fuzzy compensator is proposed to tackle this problem. The neural controller, using a radial basis function neural network, is the main controller and the fuzzy compensator is designed to eliminate the approximation error introduced by the neural controller. Moreover, a proportional‐integral‐type adaptation learning algorithm is developed based on the Lyapunov function; thus not only the system stability can be guaranteed but also the convergence of the tracking error and controller parameters can speed up. Finally, the proposed ADSNC system is implemented based on a field programmable gate array chip for low‐cost and high‐performance industrial applications and is applied to control a brushless DC (BLDC) motor to show its effectiveness. The experimental results demonstrate the proposed ADSNC scheme can achieve favorable control performance without encountering chattering phenomena.

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.     

Adaptive sliding mode control for plants with mismatched perturbations to achieve asymptotical stability

In this paper an adaptive sliding mode control (ASMC) scheme based on the Lyapunov stability theorem is proposed for a class of multi‐input multi‐output (MIMO) systems with mismatched perturbations to solve robust tracking problems. Adaptive mechanisms are employed in the design of a specific sliding surface function, so that when the dynamics of controlled system enters the sliding surface, the adaptive gains are capable of adapting the upper bounds of mismatched perturbations and the trajectories of tracking errors can achieve the objective of asymptotical stability. Some adaptive mechanisms are also employed in the controller's design, so that the reaching phase can be accomplished in a finite time without the requirement of the information of upper bounds of partial mismatched perturbations. Finally the control scheme is applied to control an AC motor for showing the feasibility of the proposed methodology. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
