Given the resolution of the guidance for intercepting highly maneuvering targets, a novel finite-time convergent guidance law is proposed, which takes the following conditions into consideration, including the impact angle constraint, the guidance command input saturation constraint, and the autopilot second-order dynamic characteristics. Firstly, based on the nonsingular terminal sliding mode control theory, a finite-time convergent nonsingular terminal sliding mode surface is designed. On the back of the backstepping control method, the virtual control law appears. A nonlinear first-order filter is constructed so as to address the “differential expansion” problem in traditional backstepping control. By designing an adaptive auxiliary system, the guidance command input saturation problem is dealt with. The RBF neural network disturbance observer is used for estimating the unknown boundary external disturbances of the guidance system caused by the target acceleration. The parameters of the RBF neural network are adjusted online in real time, for the purpose of improving the estimation accuracy of the RBF neural network disturbance observer and accelerating its convergence characteristics. At the same time, an adaptive law is designed to compensate the estimation error of the RBF neural network disturbance observer. Then, the Lyapunov stability theory is used to prove the finite-time stability of the guidance law. Finally, numerical simulations verify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed guidance law.

To effectively intercept a low-altitude target in clutter background, a nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode guidance law is designed. The designed guidance law can fully exploit the fast convergence characteristics of linear sliding mode control and the finite-time-convergent characteristics of terminal sliding mode control to ensure that the line-of-sight (LOS) angle converges to a desired angle in a limited time at a faster rate. Utilizing the smooth switching characteristics of the hyperbolic tangent function similar to the saturation function, a finite-time-convergent differentiator is designed. Meanwhile, a new finite-time-convergent disturbance observer designed on the tracking differentiator can effectively track the ideal LOS angular rate, suppress the measurement noise, and make a smooth estimation of the target maneuvering acceleration in clutter background. Combining the estimated value of the disturbance observer, the sign function with switch coefficient is introduced to design a composite nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode guidance law. The simulation results show that the composite guidance law can not only effectively suppress the measurement noise of the LOS angular rate and improve the accuracy of low-altitude target intercepting, but also greatly reduce the energy consumption in the interception process.

This study investigates a novel fractional-order nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller via a finite-time disturbance observer for a class of mismatched uncertain nonlinear systems. For this purpose, a finite-time disturbance observer–based fractional-order nonsingular terminal sliding surface is proposed, and the corresponding control law is designed using the Lyapunov stability theory to satisfy the sliding condition in finite time. The proposed fractional-order nonsingular terminal sliding mode control based on a finite-time disturbance observer exhibits better control performance; guarantees finite-time convergence, robust stability of the closed-loop system, and mismatched disturbance rejection; and alleviates the chattering problem. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed fractional-order robust controller is illustrated via simulation results of both the numerical and application examples which are compared with the fractional-order nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller, sliding mode controller based on a disturbance observer, and integral sliding mode controller methods.

Aiming at the problem of missile attacking ground target in pitch plane, combined with a composite fast nonsingular terminal sliding mode, a new adaptive finite-time stable guidance law with attack angle constraint is designed based on the second-order sliding mode control. The improved extended state observer is used to estimate the uncertainties and compensate the control quantity, and the dynamic control gains are designed to avoid the problem about “excessive estimation” of the parameter upper limit. According to the Lyapunov stability theory, it is proved that the system states can converge into a small neighborhood near the equilibrium point in a finite time. Monte Carlo simulation is carried out by randomly generating initial conditions, which proves that the guidance law has strong adaptability to different initial conditions and has good guidance precision.

In this paper, finite-time fault-tolerant attitude tracking control is investigated for rigid spacecraft system with external disturbances, inertia uncertainties and actuator faults. A novel finite-time disturbance observer combined with a nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller is developed. Using an equivalent output error injection approach, a finite-time disturbance observer with simple structure is firstly designed to estimate lumped uncertainty. Then, to remove the requirement of prior knowledge about lumped uncertainty and reduce chattering, an adaptive finite-time disturbance observer is further proposed, and the estimations converge to the neighborhood of the true values. Based on the designed observer, a unified finite-time attitude controller is obtained automatically. Finally, both additive and multiplicative faults are considered for simulations and the results illustrate the great fault-tolerant capability of the proposed scheme.

The aim of this article is to design a nonsingular terminal sliding mode control method based on disturbance observer for the stabilization of the micro-electro-mechanical systems under lumped perturbation. By using the nonsingular terminal sliding mode control scheme, the state trajectories of the system achieve the switching surface and approach to the origin in the finite time. Also, by utilizing the disturbance observer, the finite-time convergence of disturbance error is assured. In the process of design, the optimized coefficients of the sliding surface are calculated in the form of linear matrix inequality. Simulation results for a micro-electro-mechanical gyroscope are illustrated to exhibit the validity of the planned approach in comparison with the other methods.

Abstract In order to intercept a highly manoeuvering target with an ideal impact angle in the three-dimensional space, this paper promises to probe into the problem of three-dimensional terminal guidance. With the goal of the highly target acceleration and short terminal guidance time, a guidance law, based on the advanced fast non-singular terminal sliding mode theory, is designed to quickly converge the line-of-sight (LOS) angle and the LOS angular rate within a finite time. In the design process, the target acceleration is regarded as an unknown boundary external disturbance of the guidance system, and the RBF neural network is used to estimate it. In order to improve the estimation accuracy of RBF neural network and accelerate its convergence, the parameters of RBF neural network are adjusted online in real time. At the same time, an adaptive law is designed to compensate the estimation error of the RBF neural network, which improves the convergence speed of the guidance system. Theoretical analysis demonstrates that the state and the sliding manifold of the guidance system converge in finite time. According to Lyapunov theory, the stability of the system can be guaranteed by online adjusting the parameters of RBF neural network and adaptive parameters. The numerical simulation results verify the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed guidance law.

A finite-time control strategy is proposed to solve the problem of position tracking control for a permanent magnet synchronous motor servo system. It can guarantee that the motor’s desired position can be tracked in a finite time. Firstly, for the d-axis voltage, a first-order finite-time controller is designed based on the vector control principle. Then, for the q-axis voltage, based on a radial basis function (RBF) neural network, an integral high-order terminal sliding mode controller is designed. Theoretical analysis shows that under the proposed controller, the desired position can be tracked by the motor position in a finite time. Simulation results are given to show that the proposed control method has a strong anti-disturbance ability and a fast convergence performance.

Considering the guidance problem of relative motion of missile target without the dynamic characteristics of missile autopilot in the interception planar, non-homogeneous disturbance observer is applied for finite-time estimation with respect to the target maneuvering affecting the guidance performance. Two guidance laws with finite-time convergence are designed by using a fast power rate reaching law and the prescribed sliding variable dynamics. The nonsingular terminal sliding mode surface is selected to improve dynamic characteristics of missile autopilot. Furthermore, the finite-time guidance law with dynamic delay characteristics is designed for the target maneuvering through adopting variable structure dynamic compensation. The simulation results demonstrate that, for different target maneuvering, the proposed guidance laws can restrain the sliding mode chattering problem effectively and make the missile hit the maneuvering target quickly and accurately with condition of corresponding assumptions.
