This paper presents a hysteresis band controller capable of setting a constant value for the steady-state switching frequency of a sliding mode controller in regulation and tracking tasks. The proposed architecture relies on a piecewise linear modeling of the switching function behavior within the hysteresis band, and consists of a discrete-time integral-type controller that modifies the amplitude of the hysteresis band of the comparator in accordance with the error between the desired and the actually measured switching period. For tracking purposes, an additional feedforward action is introduced to compensate the time variation of the switching function derivatives at either sides of the switching hyperplane in the steady state. Stability proofs are provided, and a design criterion for the control parameters to guarantee closed-loop stability is subsequently derived. Numerical simulations and experimental results validate the proposal.Accepted versio
Discrete Adaptive Second Order Sliding Mode Controller Design with Application to Automotive Control Systems with Model Uncertainties
Sliding mode control (SMC) is a robust and computationally efficient solution
for tracking control problems of highly nonlinear systems with a great deal of
uncertainty. High frequency oscillations due to chattering phenomena and
sensitivity to data sampling imprecisions limit the digital implementation of
conventional first order continuous-time SMC. Higher order discrete SMC is an
effective solution to reduce the chattering during the controller software
implementation, and also overcome imprecisions due to data sampling. In this
paper, a new adaptive second order discrete sliding mode control (DSMC)
formulation is presented to mitigate data sampling imprecisions and
uncertainties within the modeled plant's dynamics. The adaptation mechanism is
derived based on a Lyapunov stability argument which guarantees asymptotic
stability of the closed-loop system. The proposed controller is designed and
tested on a highly nonlinear combustion engine tracking control problem. The
simulation test results show that the second order DSMC can improve the
tracking performance up to 80% compared to a first order DSMC under sampling
and model uncertainties.Comment: 6 pages, 6 figures, 2017 American Control Conferenc
Discretization of control law for a class of variable structure control systems
A new method for the discretization of a class of continuous-time variable structure control systems, based on the linear complementarity theory, is proposed. The proposed method consists two steps. In the first step, the motion projected on the sliding manifold (the fast dynamics) is discretized by means of backward Euler time-step method. In the second step, the sampled and hold control law is determined such that the trajectories of the discrete-time closed loop system projected on the sliding manifold coincide with the trajectories of discretized fast dynamics. The discrete-time closed-loop system exhibits discrete-time sliding motion. It means that the trajectories of the discrete-time closed loop system reach the sliding manifold in a finite number of steps and stay on it after that. Also, it is proved that control law is a continuous function. Therefore, the closed loop system is chattering free. The theoretically obtained results are verified on the example of the non-holonomic integrator. \u
Resilient Observer Design for Discrete-Time Nonlinear Systems with General Criteria
A class of discrete-time nonlinear system and measurement equations having incrementally conic nonlinearities and finite energy disturbances is considered. A linear matrix inequality based resilient observer design approach is presented to guarantee the satisfaction of a variety of performance criteria ranging from simple estimation error boundedness to dissipativity in the presence of bounded perturbations on the gain. Some simulation examples are included to illustrate the proposed design methodology
MIMO First and Second Order Discrete Sliding Mode Controls of Uncertain Linear Systems under Implementation Imprecisions
The performance of a conventional model-based controller significantly
depends on the accuracy of the modeled dynamics. The model of a plant's
dynamics is subjected to errors in estimating the numerical values of the
physical parameters, and variations over operating environment conditions and
time. These errors and variations in the parameters of a model are the major
sources of uncertainty within the controller structure. Digital implementation
of controller software on an actual electronic control unit (ECU) introduces
another layer of uncertainty at the controller inputs/outputs. The
implementation uncertainties are mostly due to data sampling and quantization
via the analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) unit. The failure to address the
model and ADC uncertainties during the early stages of a controller design
cycle results in a costly and time consuming verification and validation (V&V)
process. In this paper, new formulations of the first and second order discrete
sliding mode controllers (DSMC) are presented for a general class of uncertain
linear systems. The knowledge of the ADC imprecisions is incorporated into the
proposed DSMCs via an online ADC uncertainty prediction mechanism to improve
the controller robustness characteristics. Moreover, the DSMCs are equipped
with adaptation laws to remove two different types of modeling uncertainties
(multiplicative and additive) from the parameters of the linear system model.
The proposed adaptive DSMCs are evaluated on a DC motor speed control problem
in real-time using a processor-in-the-loop (PIL) setup with an actual ECU. The
results show that the proposed SISO and MIMO second order DSMCs improve the
conventional SISO first order DSMC tracking performance by 69% and 84%,
respectively. Moreover, the proposed adaptation mechanism is able to remove the
uncertainties in the model by up to 90%.Comment: 10 pages, 11 figures, ASME 2017 Dynamic Systems and Control
