Motivated by achieving precise positioning of the throttle plate, an extended state observer-based intelligent double integral sliding mode control strategy is proposed for the electronic throttle control system. Specifically, an extended state observer is first designed to observe the opening angle change of the electronic throttle and compensate unexpected external disturbance. On this basis, an intelligent double integral sliding mode controller for electronic throttle valve is presented based on Lyapunov stability theory and sliding mode control theory, which includes stability analysis and parameter adaptation design. Finally, extensive simulations are conducted to demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method.
