Fast Terminal Sliding Mode

This paper investigates a fast-tracking controller with prescribed performance for flexible air-breathing hypersonic vehicles subject to uncertain parameters, external disturbances, actuator faults and backlash non-linearity. For the velocity and altitude dynamics, a prescribed performance control scheme is respectively utilized to provide preselected bounds on the transient and steady characteristics of tracking errors, also it can effectively relieve the constraint of scramjet on the angle of attack. A sliding mode exact observer is introduced to estimate the lumped disturbance, meanwhile the analytic differential computation on virtual controllers is avoided in the back-stepping design for altitude tracking. Based on prescribed performance control and sliding mode exact observer, the non-singular fast terminal sliding mode technology is introduced to design a control law, which is capable of ensuring both velocity and altitude tracking errors converge into the prescribed sets in finite-time. Simulations on the high-fidelity air-breathing hypersonic vehicle mode are implemented to highlight the effectiveness of the developed controller.

Control Scheme

In this article, aiming at the longitudinal dynamics model of air-breathing hypersonic vehicles, a fuzzy-approximation-based prescribed performance control scheme with input constraints is proposed. First, this article presents a novel prescribed performance function, which does not depend on the sign of initial tracking error. And combining prescribed performance control method with backstepping control, the control scheme can ensure that system can converge at a prescribed rate of convergence, overshoot, and steady-state error. In order to solve the problem that backstepping control method needs to be differentiated multiple times, fuzzy approximators are used to estimate the unknown functions, and norm estimation approach is used to simplify the computation of fuzzy approximator. Aiming at the problem of input saturation of actuator in subsystem of air-breathing hypersonic vehicle, the new auxiliary system is designed to ensure the stability and robustness of air-breathing hypersonic vehicle system under input constraints. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is verified by simulation analysis.

Estimation Scheme

In this paper, an adaptive sliding mode fault-tolerant control scheme based on prescribed performance control and neural networks is developed for an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) quadrotor carrying a load to deal with actuator faults. First, a nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode (NFTSM) control strategy is presented. In virtue of the proposed strategy, fast convergence and high robustness can be guaranteed without stimulating chattering. Secondly, to obtain correct fault magnitudes and compensate the failures actively, a radial basis function neural network-based fault estimation scheme is proposed. By combining the proposed fault estimation strategy and the NFTSM controller, an active fault-tolerant control algorithm is established. Then, the uncertainties caused by load variation are explicitly considered and compensated by the presented adaptive laws. Moreover, by synthesizing the proposed sliding mode control and prescribed performance control (PPC), an output error transformation is defined to deal with state constraints and provide better tracking performance. From the Lyapunov stability analysis, the overall system is proven to be uniformly asymptotically stable. Finally, numerical simulation based on a quadrotor helicopter is carried out to validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, a novel adaptive finite-time control of air-breathing hypersonic vehicles is proposed. Based on the immersion and invariance theory, an adaptive finite-time control method for general second-order systems is first derived, using nonsingular terminal sliding mode scheme. Then the method is applied to the control system design of a flexible air-breathing vehicle model, whose dynamics can be decoupled into first-order and second-order subsystems by time-scale separation principle. The main features of this hypersonic vehicle control system lie in the design flexibility of the parameter adaptive laws and the rapid convergence to the equilibrium point. Finally, simulations are conducted, which demonstrate that the control system has the features of fast and accurate tracking to command trajectories and strong robustness to parametric and non-parametric uncertainties.

The actuator of a particleboard glue-dosing system, the glue pump motor, is affected by external disturbances and unknown uncertainty. In order to achieve accurate glue-flow tracking, in this paper, a glue pump motor compound control method was designed. First, the prescribed performance control method is used to improve the transient behaviors, and the error of the glue flow tracking is guaranteed to converge to a preset range, as a result of the design of an appropriate performance function. Second, two extended state observers were designed to estimate the state vector and the disturbance, in order to improve the robustness of the controlled system. To further strengthen the steady-state performance of the system, the sliding-mode dynamic surface control method was introduced to compensate for uncertainties and disturbances. Finally, a Lyapunov stability analysis was conducted, in order to prove that all of the signals are bounded in a closed-loop system, and the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method were verified through numerical simulation.
