Embedded adaptive fractional-order sliding mode control based on TSK fuzzy system for nonlinear fractional-order systems

Abstract

AbstractAn adaptive fractional-order sliding mode control (AFOSMC) is proposed to control a nonlinear fractional-order system. This scheme combines the features of sliding mode control and fractional control for improving the response of nonlinear systems. The structure of AFOSMC includes two units: fractional-order sliding mode control (FOSMC) and the tuning unit that employs a certain Takagi–Sugeno–Kang fuzzy logic system for online adjusting the parameters of FOSMC. Tuning the parameters of the FOSMC improves its performance with various control problems. Moreover, stability analysis of the proposed controller is studied using Lyapunov theorem. Finally, the developed control scheme is introduced for controlling a fractional-order gyroscope system. The proposed AFOSMC is implemented practically using a microcontroller where the test is carried out using the hardware-in-the-loop simulation. The practical results indicate the improvements and enhancements introduced by the developed controller under external disturbance, uncertainties and random noise effects.
