Novel Nonsingular Fast Terminal Sliding Mode Control for a Class of Second-Order Uncertain Nonlinear Systems

摘要

This paper presents a novel nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode control scheme for a class of second-order uncertain nonlinear systems. First, a novel nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode manifold (NNFTSM) with adaptive coefficients is put forward, and a novel double power reaching law (NDP) with dynamic exponential power terms is presented. Afterwards, a novel nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode (NNFTSMNDP) controller is designed by employing NNFTSM and NDP, which can improve the convergence rate and the robustness of the system. Due to the existence of external disturbances and parameter uncertainties, the system states under controller NNFTSMNDP cannot converge to the equilibrium but only to the neighborhood of the equilibrium in finite time. Considering the unsatisfying performance of controller NNFTSMNDP, an adaptive disturbance observer (ADO) is employed to estimate the lumped disturbance that is compensated in the controller in real-time. A novel composite controller is presented by combining the NNFTSMNDP method with the ADO technique. The finite-time stability of the closed-loop system under the proposed control method is proven by virtue of the Lyapunov stability theory. Both simulation results and theoretical analysis illustrate that the proposed method shows excellent control performance in the existence of disturbances and uncertainties.
