Stabilizing periodic orbits of Chua’s system using adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller

Abstract

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the stabilization of unstable periodic orbits of Chua’s system using adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controllers with moving surface. Design/methodology/approach For this aim, the sliding mode controller and fuzzy systems are combined to achieve the stabilization. Then, the authors propose a moving sliding surface to improve robustness against uncertainties during the reaching phase, parameter variations and extraneous disturbances. Findings Afterward, the authors design a sliding observer to estimate the unmeasurable states which are used in the previously designed controller. Originality/value Numerical results are provided to show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.

“…However, fuzzy control seems to be deficient in formal analysis and robustness aspects. To overcome this disadvantage, great efforts have been done in the integration of the combination of fuzzy techniques and sliding mode control to improve system control performances [16,17]. In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in the type-2 fuzzy-based control [18][19][20] since type-2 fuzzy systems have better effects on performances of the controlled system than type-1 fuzzy systems where it is difficult to determine parameters associated with the rule base and membership functions [21][22][23].…”

“…The fuzzy tuning considered only the error in the phase plane as the input of the fuzzy system. Medhaffar et al [20] have replaced fixed sliding surfaces by continuously moving sliding mode surfaces. Moreover, the proposed fuzzy tuning considers the error and the error velocity in the phase plane, as inputs of the fuzzy system, in order to improve control performances.…”
