Design of Continuous Finite-Time Controller Based on Adaptive Tuning Approach for Disturbed Boost Converters

Abstract

This research study proposes a continuous finite-time controller based on the adaptive tuning approach for the boost converters with unknown disturbances. A Lyapunov candidate function which contains an absolute function based on the fractional power of the sliding surface is employed to attain a smooth continuous control input. The recommended technique can eliminate the chattering phenomenon made by the sliding mode control signal and improve the control performance. Furthermore, the continuous adaptive-tuning control law is given to estimate the unknown bounds of exterior disturbances. The performance of the adaptive-tuned terminal sliding mode control law to the load variations and parametric uncertainties, and the input voltage, are studied in the MATLAB-Simulink environment. The obtained simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the suggested technique.
