The ideal real time personal authentication system should be fast and accurate to automatically identify a person’s identity. In this paper, we have proposed a palmprint based biometric authentication method with improvement in time and accuracy, so as to make it a real time palmprint authentication system. Several edge detection methods, wavelet transform, phase congruency etc. are available t...

For time-delay systems with mismatched disturbances and uncertainties, this paper developed an integral sliding mode control algorithm using output information only to stabilize the system. An integral sliding surface is comprised of output vectors and an auxiliary full-order compensator. The proposed output feedback sliding mode controller can satisfy the reaching and sliding condition and mai...

This paper deals with the design of a moving sliding surface in a variable structure plant for a second order system. The chattering phenomena is also dealt with during the switching process for an unstable sliding surface condition. The simulation examples considered in this paper shows the effectiveness of the sliding mode control method used for the design of the moving sliding surfaces. A s...

Mechanical interlocking is widely applied in industry and general lives of human beings. In this work, we realized the control of locking or sliding states of cotton fibers on the metal surfaces with slightly different textures through traditional machining. Three types of sliding states, i.e., locking, one-way sliding, and two-way sliding have been achieved. It is found that the locking or sli...

This paper addresses the issue of piecewise integral sliding mode control for T-S fuzzy systems. Integral sliding mode control (ISMC) is chosen to stabilize the T-S fuzzy system because of its superior capability in treating uncertainties. Individual integral sliding surfaces are designed in different operating regions of the T-S fuzzy system. Conditions on existence of the sliding mode in the ...

The sliding mode control (SMC) problem for a class of quasi-linear parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) systems with time-varying delay is considered. Firstly, the stability problem for the reduced order sliding dynamical equations is investigated and a sufficient condition for the stability of sliding motion is given. Then the SMC law, which forces the system state from any initial st...

This paper considers the problem of terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) for uncertain MIMO systems in which the actuator faults may happen in any channel of actuators. By means of state transformation and exponent-logarithmic sliding surface method, a reliable TSMC is proposed such that both the finite-time stability of sliding mode dynamics and the reachability of sliding surface are ensured,...

The problem of sliding-mode control for a class of neutral delay systems with uncertainties in both the state matrices and the input matrix is considered. By selecting a sliding surface depending on the current state and delayed state, the paper gives a sufficient condition in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) such that the closed-loop system is guaranteed to be asymptotically stable. ...

Chattering is undesirable phenomenon when dealing with sliding mode control. This paper proposed a new method for addressing chattering with a simple and easy implementation in Digital Signal Processor (DSP). This is realized by replacing the discontinuous function in conventional sliding mode control with statedependent auto-tuning of boundary layer in fast sigmoid function and state-dependent...
