In this paper, a new, high step-up quadratic boost converter with high conversion efficiency is discussed. A storage capacitor and resonant inductor are connected in series with a clamp capacitor through a diode. These compose a voltage multiplier cell, which is applied on the switch of the quadratic boost converter. The clamp capacitor can protect the switch from a voltage spike and absorb energy when the switch turns off; then, the storage capacitor and resonant inductor are charged by the energy stored in the clamped capacitor to increase the voltage transfer gain. In addition, the voltage multiplier cell can also reduce the voltage stresses of power devices. Then, a 16 V input, 200 V output prototype with 80 W nominal power is built up and tested. Furthermore, a finite time fast terminal sliding mode (NFTSM) control is proposed, with constant frequency for the voltageFundamental Building B213:tracking control of this converter. The new NFTSM is obtained by introducing an adjustable nonlinear term into fast terminal sliding mode (FTSM) control, and a singularity problem is avoided. The experiment illustrates that the maximum efficiency of the proposed converter achieves 95% at D = 0.25 , V o = 150 V. The voltage stress is reduced to half of the corresponding component of the basic boost converter at the same voltage level. Moreover, the proposed NFTSM controller can track the reference signal, and provide a short settling time of about 48 ms with no overshoot, and the system response exhibits strong robustness against 11.7% input voltage disturbance and 30% load variation.

Low Altitude

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.

System Output

Compared to the plug-in charging system, Wireless power transfer (WPT) is simpler, reliable, and user-friendly. Resonant inductive coupling based WPT is the technology that promises to replace the plug-in charging system. It is desired that the WPT system should provide regulated current and power with high efficiency. Due to the instability in the connected load, the system output current, power, and efficiency vary. To solve this issue, a buck converter is implemented on the secondary side of the WPT system, which adjusts its internal resistance by altering its duty cycle. To control the duty cycle of the buck converter, a discrete fast terminal sliding mode controller is proposed to regulate the system output current and power with optimal efficiency. The proposed WPT system uses the LCC-S compensation topology to ensure a constant output voltage at the input of the buck converter. The LCC-S topology is analyzed using the two-port network theory, and governing equations are derived to achieve the maximum efficiency point. Based on the analysis, the proposed controller is used to track the maximum efficiency point by tracking an optimal power point. An ultra-capacitor is connected as the system load, and based on its charging characteristics, an optimal charging strategy is devised. The performance of the proposed system is tested under the MATLAB/Simulink platform. Comparison with the conventionally used PID and sliding mode controller under sudden variations in the connected load is presented and discussed. An experimental prototype is built to validate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

SUMMARYThis paper focuses on fast terminal sliding mode control (FTSMC) of robot manipulators using wavelet neural networks (WNN) with guaranteed H∞tracking performance. The FTSMC for trajectory tracking is employed to drive the tracking error of the system to converge to an equilibrium point in finite time. The tracking error arrives at the sliding surface in finite time and then converges to zero in finite time along the sliding surface. To deal with the case of uncertain and unknown robot dynamics, a WNN is proposed to fully compensate the robot dynamics. The online tuning algorithms for the WNN parameters are derived using Lyapunov approach. To attenuate the effect of approximation errors to a prescribed level, H∞tracking performance is proposed. It is shown that the proposed WNN is able to learn the system dynamics with guaranteed H∞tracking performance and finite time convergence for trajectory tracking. Finally, the simulation results are performed on a 3D-Microbot manipulator to show the effectiveness of the controller.

Fast Terminal Sliding Mode

This paper presents a novel nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode control scheme for a class of second-order uncertain nonlinear systems. First, a novel nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode manifold (NNFTSM) with adaptive coefficients is put forward, and a novel double power reaching law (NDP) with dynamic exponential power terms is presented. Afterwards, a novel nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode (NNFTSMNDP) controller is designed by employing NNFTSM and NDP, which can improve the convergence rate and the robustness of the system. Due to the existence of external disturbances and parameter uncertainties, the system states under controller NNFTSMNDP cannot converge to the equilibrium but only to the neighborhood of the equilibrium in finite time. Considering the unsatisfying performance of controller NNFTSMNDP, an adaptive disturbance observer (ADO) is employed to estimate the lumped disturbance that is compensated in the controller in real-time. A novel composite controller is presented by combining the NNFTSMNDP method with the ADO technique. The finite-time stability of the closed-loop system under the proposed control method is proven by virtue of the Lyapunov stability theory. Both simulation results and theoretical analysis illustrate that the proposed method shows excellent control performance in the existence of disturbances and uncertainties.
