“…Due to simple structure and high thrust density, permanent magnet synchronous linear motor (PMSLM) [1] have attracted much attention in high-velocity and precise drives, which have been widely applied in railway [2], logistics and distribution [3], electromagnetic launch [4], industrial manufacturing [5] and so on. Despite these advantages, the transient performance and disturbance rejection performance of the PMSLM system are constrained by end effects, cogging effects, parameter perturbation, sensors errors, dead zone of the inverter, and load disturbance [6][7][8]. To overcome the above shortcomings, a lot of advanced control methods and disturbance rejection compensation strategies have been proposed, such as adaptive control [9], sliding mode control (SMC) [10], H-∞ control, model predictive control (MPC) [11], extended state observer (ESO) [12], sliding mode observer (SMO), etc.…”
