In this paper, the control of multiple ships for unknown scalar field source seeking problem with unknown external disturbances is considered. The sliding mode active disturbance rejection observers are designed first to converge to fixed multiple of the unknown external disturbances in finite time, respectively, and a least square method is adopted to estimate the gradient of the unknown scalar field at the position of the leading ship. Second, the surge, sway and angle velocity of the leading ship can converge to the virtual kinematic controllers through the input control of the dynamic controllers using force and torque in finite time. Third, the virtual controllers and dynamic controllers of the following ships are developed to urge the following ships to accomplish the source seeking problem from the perspective of dynamics. Finally, theoretical proofs and simulations are provided to prove the effectiveness of the strategy proposed.

For optimal control of synchronous machine, chattering phenomenon will appear if traditional slider control is adopted because permanent magnet synchronous machine is a complex nonlinear time-dependent system with strong coupling of current and rotational speed to cause the deterioration of system control performance with load or load disturbance. In this article, based on the mathematical model of permanent magnet synchronous machine, a control system for it, which combines sliding mode control and active disturbance rejection control, is proposed to improve the dynamic performance and robustness of control system. In the control system, sliding mode control is adopted to control the inner current of machine and active disturbance rejection control is adopted to control the outer speed. The load disturbance of system is also estimated and offset. The results of matlab simulation show that the control system can eliminate serious chattering phenomenon existing in sliding mode control, improves the robustness of system for load and system parameter disturbance as well as has great dynamic and static performance.

PurposeIn this research paper, an adaptive output-feedback robust active disturbance rejection control (RADRC) is designed for the multiple input multiple output (MIMO) quadrotor attitude model subject to unwanted uncertainties and disturbances (UUDs).Design/methodology/approachIn order to achieve the desired control objectives in the presence of UUDs, the low pass filter (LPF) and extended high gain observer (EHGO) methods are used for the estimation of matched and mismatched UUDs, respectively. Furthermore, for solving the chattering incurred in the standard sliding mode control (SMC), a multilayer sliding mode surface is constructed. For formulating the adaptive output-feedback RADRC algorithm, the EHGO, LPF and SMC schemes are combined using the separation principle.FindingsThe findings of this research work include the design of an adaptive output-feedback RADRC with the ability to negate the UUDs as well as estimate the unknown states of the quadrotor attitude model. In addition, the chattering problem is addressed by designing a modified SMC scheme based on the multilayer sliding mode surface obtained by utilizing the estimated state variables. This sliding mode surface is also used to obtain the adaptive criteria for the switching design gain parameters involved in the SMC. Moreover, the requirement of high design gain parameters in the EHGO is solved by combining it with the LPF.Originality/valueDesigning the flight control techniques while assuming that the state variables are available is a common practice. In addition, to obtain robustness, the SMC technique is widely used. However, in practice, the state variables might not be available due to unknown parameters and uncertainties, as well as the chattering due to SMC reduces the performances of the actuators. Hence, in this paper, an adaptive output-feedback RADRC technique is designed to solve the problems of UUDs and chattering.

This article presents a fixed-time active disturbance rejection control approach for the attitude control problem of quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle in the presence of dynamic wind, mass eccentricity and an actuator fault. The control scheme applies the feedback linearization technique and enhances the performance of the traditional active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) based on the fixed-time high-order sliding mode method. A switching-type uniformly convergent differentiator is used to improve the extended state observer for estimating and attenuating the lumped disturbance more accurately. A multivariable high-order sliding mode feedback law is derived to achieve fixed time convergence. The timely convergence of the designed extended state observer and the feedback law is proved theoretically. Mathematical simulations with detailed actuator models and real time experiments are performed to demonstrate the robustness and practicability of the proposed control scheme.

This study proposes a compound control method based on sliding mode and active disturbance rejection control to address the difficulty of controlling the cutting head for boom-type roadheader with parameter changes and uncertain disturbances. The fastest discrete tracking differentiator and extended state observer based on the traditional active disturbance rejection control are designed. Additionally, the controller of the sliding mode and active disturbance rejection control is constructed. Theoretical analysis indicates that the proposed controller ensures asymptotic stability, despite the existing uncertain disturbances. Moreover, a system based on AMESim and MATLAB/Simulink Co-simulation model is developed to further verify the performance of proposed algorithm. Compared with traditional active disturbance rejection control, proportional-integral-derivative(PID) and sliding mode control, co-simulation results demonstrate that the sliding mode active disturbance rejection compound control improves the tracking accuracy and robustness of the position servo system.

In this paper, an integrated control strategy of position synchronization control for dual-electro-hydraulic actuators with unknown dead-zones is proposed. The unified control scheme consists of two parts: One is adaptive dead-zone inverse controllers of each hydraulic actuator to offset the unknown dead-zones. The other is the linear active disturbance rejection controller (LADRC) for position synchronization error. First, the model of the electro-hydraulic proportional position control system (EPPS) was identified by the forgetting factor recursive least square (FFRLS) algorithm. Next, the model reference dead-zone inverse adaptive controller (MRDIAC) was developed to compensate for the delay of actuator response caused by unknown proportional valve dead-zones. Meanwhile, the validity of the adaptive law was proven by the Lyapunov theory. Therefore, the position control accuracy of each hydraulic actuator is guaranteed. Besides, to improve the precision of position synchronization control of dual-hydraulic actuators, a simple and elegant synchronous error-based LADRC was adopted, which applies the total disturbances design concept to eliminate and compensate for motion coupling rather than cross-coupling technology. The performance of the proposed control solution was investigated through extensive comparative experiments based on a hydraulic test platform. The experimental results successfully demonstrate the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed method.

This article deals with the control problem of 7-degrees of freedom full-car suspension system which takes into account the spring-damper nonlinearities, unmodeled dynamics and external disturbances. The existing active disturbance rejection control uses an extended state observer to estimate the “total disturbance” and eliminate it with state error feedback. In this article, a new type of active disturbance rejection control is developed to improve the ride comfort of full car suspension systems taking into account the suspension nonlinearities and actuator saturation. The proposed controller combines active disturbance rejection control and fuzzy sliding mode control and is called Fuzzy Sliding Mode active disturbance rejection control. To validate the system mathematical model and analyze the controller performance, a virtual prototype is built in Adams. The simulation results demonstrate better performance of Fuzzy Sliding Mode active disturbance rejection control compared to the existing active disturbance rejection control.
