The finite time disturbance observer is involved to make that the continuous sliding mode controller has the property of disturbance rejection.Due to continuous terms replacing the discontinuous term of traditional sliding mode control, switching modes of velocity and altitude firstly arrive at small regions with respect to disturbance observation errors. Switching modes keep zero and velocity and altitude asymptotically converge to their reference commands after disturbance observation errors disappear. Simulation results have proved the proposed method can guarantee the tracking of velocity and altitude with continuous sliding mode control laws,and also has the fast convergence rate and robustness.展开更多

文摘Permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM)has been widely used in position control applications.Its performance is not satisfactory due to internal uncertainties and external load disturbances.To enhance the control performance of PMSM systems,a new method that has fast response and good robustness is proposed in this study.First,a modified integral terminal sliding mode controller is developed,which has a fast-sliding surface and a continuous reaching law.Then,an extended state observer is applied to measure the internal and external disturbances.Therefore,the disturbances can be compensated for in a feedforward manner.Compared with other sliding mode methods,the proposed method has faster response and better robustness against system disturbances.In addition,the position tracking error can converge to zero in a finite time.Simulation and experimental results reveal that the proposed control method has fast response and good robustness,and enables high-precision control.

文摘Quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)is a typical multiple-input-multiple-output underactuated system with couplings and nonlinearity.Usually,the flying environment is very complex,so that it is impossible for the UAV to avoid effects derived from disturbances and uncertainties.In order to improve the reliability of flight control,we established the dynamic model of quad-rotor UAV by Newton-Euler equation in unbalanced load conditions.Considering external disturbances in the attitude,a second-order sliding mode controller was designed with PID sliding mode surface and Extended State Observer(ESO).The simulation experiments have got good control performance,illustrating the effectiveness of our controller.Meanwhile,the controller was implemented in a quadrotor UAV,which carried a pan-tilt camera for aerial photography.The actual flight experiments proved that this paper dealt with the high stabilization flight control problem for the quad-rotor UAV,which laid a good foundation for autonomous flight of the UAV.
文摘This paper presents a fuzzy adaptive sliding mode controller(FASMC)for electrically driven wheeled mobile robot for trajectory tracking task in the presence of uncertainties and disturbances.First,a finite-time kinematic controller is developed to compute the auxiliary velocity vector.Second,the FASMC,based on the nonlinear dynamic model of the robot and its actuators,is used to guarantee the stability and the convergence of the closed-loop system.Moreover,by employing the advantages of the fuzzy logic systems,the developed controller ensures the robustness of the system against dynamic disturbances and uncertainties,the smoothness of the computing voltage against the chattering phenomenon,and the optimal convergence of the velocity and posture errors.The Lyapunov theory is used to analyse the stability of this algorithm.In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the developed method,numerical simulations are done in the Mahlab/Simulink environment.
文摘Tunable micro-electro-mechanical systems(MEMS)capacitors as the fundamental parts are embedded in MEMS AC voltage reference sources(VRS).Being concerned with the accuracy of the output voltage in the reference sources,it gets important to address uncertainties in the physical parameters of the MEMS capacitor.The uncertainties have the great inevitable potentiality of bringing about output voltage perturbation.The output deterioration is more remarkable when the uncertainties are accompanied by disturbance and noise.Manufacturers have been making great attempts to make the MEMS adjustable capacitor with desired rigorous physical characteristics.They have also tried to mitigate physical parameter veracity.However,ambiguity in the values of the parameters inescapably occurs in fabrication procedures since the micro-machining process might itself suffer from uncertainties.Employing a proportional integral(PI)adaptive sliding mode controller(ASMC),both terms of matched and unmatched uncertainties as well as the disturbance,are addressed in this work for the MEMS AC VRS so that a strict voltage is stabilized while the system is simultaneously subjected into uncertainties and exogenous disturbance.Cross-talk,some inertial forces,and electrostatic coercions may appear as matched and unmatched disturbances.Alteration in stiffness and damping coefficients might also take place as matched uncertainties due to variations in the fabrication process or even working environment.The simulation results in the paper are persuasive and the controller design has shown a satisfactory tracking performance.

文摘For flight simulator system,a kind of Adaptive Backstepping Sliding Mode Controller(ABSMC)based on Radial Base Function Neural Network(RBFNN)observer is presented.The sliding mode control theory is famous by its characteristic that it is insensitive to the external disturbances and parameters uncertainties.Combining this characteristic with Backstepping method can simplifies the controller design.And the addition of the terminal attractor can make the arrival time shorten greatly.However,too large external disturbances and parameters uncertainties are still not allowed to the system,and the design process of ABSMC does not have the upper bound information of disturbance until a RBFNN observer is designed to solve the problems.The simulation results show that the proposed scheme can improve the tracking precision and reduce the chattering of the control input,and the system has a higher robustness.

文摘Hydraulic servo system plays an important role in industrial fields due to the advantages of high response,small size-to-power ratio and large driving force.However,inherent nonlinear behaviors and modeling uncertainties are the main obstacles for hydraulic servo system to achieve high tracking perfor-mance.To deal with these difficulties,this paper presents a backstepping sliding mode controller to improve the dynamic tracking performance and anti-interfer-ence ability.For this purpose,the nonlinear dynamic model is firstly established,where the nonlinear behaviors and modeling uncertainties are lumped as one term.Then,the extended state observer is introduced to estimate the lumped distur-bance.The system stability is proved by using the Lyapunov stability theorem.Finally,comparative simulation and experimental are conducted on a hydraulic servo system platform to verify the efficiency of the proposed control scheme.
