Optimal sliding mode controllers for attitude tracking of spacecraft
This paper studies two optimal sliding mode control laws using integral sliding mode control (ISM) for some spacecraft attitude tracking problems. Integral sliding mode control combining the first order sliding mode and optimal control is applied to quaternion-based spacecraft attitude tracking manoeuvres with external disturbances and an uncertainty inertia matrix. For the optimal control part the state dependent Riccati equation (SDRE) and Control Lyapunov function (CLF) approaches are used to solve the infinite-time nonlinear optimal problem. The second method of Lyapunov is used to show that tracking is achieved globally. An example of multiaxial attitude tracking manoeuvres is presented and simulation results are included to verify the usefulness of these controllers
A Novel Fuzzy Logic Based Adaptive Supertwisting Sliding Mode Control Algorithm for Dynamic Uncertain Systems
This paper presents a novel fuzzy logic based Adaptive Super-twisting Sliding
Mode Controller for the control of dynamic uncertain systems. The proposed
controller combines the advantages of Second order Sliding Mode Control, Fuzzy
Logic Control and Adaptive Control. The reaching conditions, stability and
robustness of the system with the proposed controller are guaranteed. In
addition, the proposed controller is well suited for simple design and
implementation. The effectiveness of the proposed controller over the first
order Sliding Mode Fuzzy Logic controller is illustrated by Matlab based
simulations performed on a DC-DC Buck converter. Based on this comparison, the
proposed controller is shown to obtain the desired transient response without
causing chattering and error under steady-state conditions. The proposed
controller is able to give robust performance in terms of rejection to input
voltage variations and load variations.Comment: 14 page
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
New advances in H∞ control and filtering for nonlinear systems
The main objective of this special issue is to
summarise recent advances in H∞ control and filtering
for nonlinear systems, including time-delay, hybrid and
stochastic systems. The published papers provide new
ideas and approaches, clearly indicating the advances
made in problem statements, methodologies or applications
with respect to the existing results. The special
issue also includes papers focusing on advanced and
non-traditional methods and presenting considerable
novelties in theoretical background or experimental
setup. Some papers present applications to newly
emerging fields, such as network-based control and
estimation
Second-order SM approach to SISO time-delay system output tracking
A fully linearizable single-input-single-output relative-degree n system with an output time delay is considered in this paper. Using the approach of Pade approximation, system center approach, and second-order sliding-mode (SM) control, we have obtained good output tracking results. The Smith predictor is used to compensate the difference between the actual delayed output and its approximation. A second-order supertwisting SM observer observes the disturbance in the plant. A nonlinear example is studied to show the effect of this methodology
Adaptive Discrete Second Order Sliding Mode Control with Application to Nonlinear Automotive Systems
Sliding mode control (SMC) is a robust and computationally efficient
model-based controller design technique for highly nonlinear systems, in the
presence of model and external uncertainties. However, the implementation of
the conventional continuous-time SMC on digital computers is limited, due to
the imprecisions caused by data sampling and quantization, and the chattering
phenomena, which results in high frequency oscillations. One effective solution
to minimize the effects of data sampling and quantization imprecisions is the
use of higher order sliding modes. To this end, in this paper, a new
formulation of an adaptive second order discrete sliding mode control (DSMC) is
presented for a general class of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) uncertain
nonlinear systems. Based on a Lyapunov stability argument and by invoking the
new Invariance Principle, not only the asymptotic stability of the controller
is guaranteed, but also the adaptation law is derived to remove the
uncertainties within the nonlinear plant dynamics. The proposed adaptive
tracking controller is designed and tested in real-time for a highly nonlinear
control problem in spark ignition combustion engine during transient operating
conditions. The simulation and real-time processor-in-the-loop (PIL) test
results show that the second order single-input single-output (SISO) DSMC can
improve the tracking performances up to 90%, compared to a first order SISO
DSMC under sampling and quantization imprecisions, in the presence of modeling
uncertainties. Moreover, it is observed that by converting the engine SISO
controllers to a MIMO structure, the overall controller performance can be
enhanced by 25%, compared to the SISO second order DSMC, because of the
dynamics coupling consideration within the MIMO DSMC formulation.Comment: 12 pages, 7 figures, 1 tabl
