Adaptive Attitude Roll Control of Guided Projectile Based on a Novel Unidirectional Global Sliding Mode Algorithm

Abstract

Aimed at addressing the strong nonlinearity and strong external disturbances that cause flight control issues in conventional guided projectiles, as well as the slow response and structural vibrations that often occur in sliding mode control systems, which have a detrimental impact on the control effect and ultimate hit precision, a new type of fast and robust control algorithm with a unidirectional mode has been designed. The objective is to design an optimized aerodynamic shape for the projectile and to establish a dynamic model of the roll channel and a motion model of the entire trajectory. The dynamics of a new global terminal sliding mode are proposed, and an adaptive parameter term is realized by calculating the state of the critical sliding mode surface, which ensures that the tracking error converges within a finite time. Its combination with an adaptive approaching law is used to further speed up convergence while damping the structural vibration of the system. The bias error of the roll angle is constructed as the controller and simulation calculations are conducted on the basis of the aforementioned framework. The stability and time convergence of the control system are demonstrated through Lyapunov theory. The results indicate that, in comparison to the conventional terminal sliding mode controller, the designed controller exhibits a markedly rapid convergence rate and stronger robustness in tracking the command signal. Moreover, it also maintains a stable motion attitude of the projectile throughout the entire process. The superior control effect under different guidance schemes and the strong external disturbances also further reflect the anti-jamming capability and tracking performance of the system.
