Full-order terminal sliding-mode control of MIMO systems with unmatched uncertainties

摘要

To control MIMO systems with unmatched uncertainties, two sliding-mode controllers are presented in this paper. Firstly, a terminal sliding-mode controller is presented to force the output of an MIMO system to a region near zero in finite-time. With the analysis on the effect of the unmatched uncertainties, a full-order terminal sliding-mode control is further proposed to force the output of the MIMO system to converge to zero rather than a region. The virtual control is utilized to establish the reference for the part of the system states, which can reject unmatched uncertainties completely. To generate continuous virtual control signals, the proposed full-order terminal sliding-mode controller makes the ideal sliding motion as the full-order dynamics rather than the reduced-order dynamics in traditional sliding-mode control systems. Finally, the simulations on the control of an L-1011 fixed wing aircraft at cruise flight conditions validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. (c) 2017 The Franklin Institute.
