Purpose This paper aims to propose a robust cascaded controller based on proportional-integral (PI) and continuous sliding mode control. Design/methodology/approach Cascaded control structure is an attractive control scheme for DC-DC power converters. It has a two-loop structure where the outer loop contains PI controller and the inner loop uses sliding mode control (SMC). This structure thus combines the merits of both the control schemes. However, there are some issues that have prohibited its adoption in industry, the discontinuous nature of SMC which leads to variable switching frequency operation and is hard to realize practically. This paper attempts to overcome this issue by changing the discontinuous functionality of SMC to continuous by utilizing the concept of equivalent control. Findings The robustness of the controller designed is verified by considering various cases, namely, ideal case with no uncertainties, sudden variation of input supply voltage, load resistance, reference voltage, circuit-parameters and for noise disturbance. The controller effectiveness is validated by simulating the DC-DC boost and Cuk converters in SimPowerSystems toolbox of MATLAB/Simulink. It is shown that the performance of the proposed controller is satisfactory, and both reference output voltage and inductor current are tracked with little or no sensitivity to disturbances. Originality/value The results for various scenarios are interesting and show that the controller works quite satisfactorily for all the simulated uncertainties.

The main purpose of the paper is to control chaotic oscillation in a complex seven-dimensional power system model. Firstly, in view that there are many assumptions in the design process of existing adaptive controllers, an adaptive sliding mode control scheme is proposed for the controlled system based on equivalence principle by combining fixed-time control and adaptive control with sliding mode control. The prominent advantage of the proposed adaptive sliding mode control scheme lies in that its design process breaks through many existing assumption conditions. Then, chaotic oscillation behavior of a seven-dimensional power system is analyzed by using bifurcation and phase diagrams, and the proposed strategy is adopted to control chaotic oscillation in the power system. Finally, the effectiveness and robustness of the designed adaptive sliding mode chaos controllers are verified by simulation.

This article proposes a novel adaptive super-twisting sliding mode control scheme with a time-delay estimation technique (ASTSMC-TDE) to control the yaw angle of a single ducted-fan unmanned aerial vehicle system. Such systems are highly nonlinear; hence, the proposed control scheme is a combination of several control schemes; super-twisting sliding mode, TDE technique to estimate the nonlinear factors of the system, and an adaptive sliding mode. The tracking error of the ASTSMC-TDE is guaranteed to be uniformly ultimately bounded using Lyapunov stability theory. Moreover, to enhance the versatility and the practical feasibility of the proposed control scheme, a comparison study between the proposed controller and a proportional-integral-derivative controller (PID) is conducted. The comparison is achieved through two different scenarios: a normal mode and an abnormal mode. Simulation and experimental tests are carried out to provide an in-depth investigation of the performance of the proposed ASTSMC-TDE control system.

In this paper, a sliding mode control is presented for direct torque and stator flux control of interior permanent magnet synchronous motor in a rotor speed sensorless drive system. The control scheme is developed in a specific synchronous rotating reference frame (X-Y) in which the stator current space vector coincides with the direct (X) axis. For this control technique no need to have any knowledge of machine parameters such as stator two-axis inductances, rotor permanent magnets flux linkage, and even the rotor initial position. However, the on-line actual stator resistance value is required to estimate the stator flux components in the stator stationary two-axis reference frame. In this control strategy, two simple methods are described for estimating the rotor speed and stator resistance. Some simulation and experimental results are presented to support the validity and effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

This paper proposed a finite time convergence global sliding mode control scheme for the second-order multiple models control system. Firstly, the global sliding surface without reaching law for a single model control system is designed and the tracking error finite time convergence and global stability are proved. Secondly, we generalize the above scheme to the second-order multimodel control system and obtain the global sliding mode control law. Then, the convergent and stable performances of the closed-loop control system with multimodel controllers are proved. Finally, a simulation example shows that the proposed control scheme is more effective and useful compared with the traditional sliding mode control scheme.
