Second Order Sliding Mode Observer-Based Control for Uncertain Nonlinear MEMS Optical Switch

This paper studies theuncertain nonlinear dynamics of a MEMS optical switch addressing electrical, mechanical and optical subsystems. Recently, MEMS optical switch has had significant merits in reliability, control voltage requirements and power consumption. However, an inherent weakness in designing control for such systems is unavailability of switch position information at all times due to t...

Adaptive Neural Network Method for Consensus Tracking of High-Order Mimo Nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems

This paper is concerned with the consensus tracking problem of high order MIMO nonlinear multi-agent systems. The agents must follow a leader node in presence of unknown dynamics and uncertain external disturbances. The communication network topology of agents is assumed to be a fixed undirected graph. A distributed adaptive control method is proposed to solve the consensus problem utilizing re...

Using Tracking Differentiators in Designing Nonlinear Disturbance Observers for Uncertain Systems

Using Tracking Differentiators in Designing Nonlinear Disturbance Observers for Uncertain SystemsNaser Kazemzadeh, Saeed BarghandanAbstractIn the present paper, a practical designing method has been proposed for a novel class of NDOs based on TD. Such NDOs can nearly estimate all uncertain disturbances (specifically disturbances without prediction information). Regarding the outstanding perform...

Spatial-based Output Feedback Adaptive Feedback Linearization Repetitive Control of Uncertain Rotational Motion Systems Subject to Spatially Periodic Disturbances

In this paper, we propose a new design of spatial-based repetitive control for rotational motion systems required to operate at varying speeds and subject to spatially periodic disturbances. The system has known model structure with uncertain parameters. To synthesize a repetitive controller in spatial domain, a linear time-invariant system is reformulated with respect to a spatial coordinate (...
