Abstract:In this paper, a discrete-time sliding mode control (DSMC) approach based on exponential reaching law (ERL) is developed for a pneumatic artificial muscle (PAM) system to achieve high tracking performance and chattering alleviation. The proposed controller is designed based on an exponential term that dynamically adapts to the variation of the switching function, thus guarantees finite steps convergence and chattering phenomenon reduction simultaneously. Moreover, the effectiveness of the designed controller a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
