An integral sliding mode controller based disturbance rejection compound scheme is proposed to attenuate the influences of nonlinear disturbances and parameter uncertainties on stability accuracy of the three-axis inertially stabilized platform for the aerial remote sensing applications. The compound scheme is composed of an integral sliding mode controller and a disturbance measurement unit. The integral sliding mode controller is used to ensure robust stability against exterior nonlinear disturbances and parameter uncertainties, in which the saturation function is employed to reduce the chattering. The disturbance measurement unit is served as the disturbance measurement components of the rate loop and current loop of three closed-loop structure in the inertially stabilized platform control system, by which the interior high-frequency disturbances are compensated in real time. To verify the method, simulations and experiments are conducted. In simulations, the LuGre friction model is introduced to analyze the effects of disturbances. Further, a series of experiments are carried out. The results show that the compound scheme has excellent ability in both of disturbances rejection and robust stabilization, by which the stability accuracy of the inertially stabilized platform is improved significantly.

This paper presents a robust controller design with disturbance decoupling and rejection of a two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) Inertially Stabilized Platform (ISP). The objective of these mechanisms is to stabilize the line of sight (LOS) of imaging sensors pointing towards a specific target. There is currently tremendous interest in ISP applications in marine systems. Such a harsh environment subjects the imaging sensors to multiple disturbances, which requires the design of robust control strategies to enhance the performances of ISP systems. The controller designed in this study is a double active controller composed of an inner compensator, and a feedback controller designed based on the H∞ framework. The main advantage of the proposed controller is that it can be implemented in real time, with lower computational complexity and good performance. In this paper, a comparative experimental study was conducted between the designed controller and an integral sliding-mode controller (ISMC). The comparison was achieved through two major tasks of ISP systems: motion tracking and target tracking.
