The position tracking control of induction motors with parameter uncertainties and load torque disturbance is addressed. Neural networks are employed to approximate the nonlinearities and an adaptive backstepping technique is used to construct controllers. The proposed adaptive neural controllers guarantee that the tracking error converges into a small neighborhood of the origin. Compared with ...

. On considère une classe de systèmes non-linéaires pour lesquels la technique de synthèse par backstepping n’est pas applicable. On présente un critère pour la synthèse d’une commande hybride faisant l’union d’une commande par backstepping et d’une commande locale. Cette commande hybride rend le système bouclé globalement asymptotiquement stable. Le critère de sélection repose sur le choix de ...

Abstract. An explicit output-feedback boundary feedback law is introduced that stabilizes an unstable linear constant-coefficient reaction-diffusion equation on an n-ball (which in 2-D reduces to a disk and in 3-D reduces to a sphere) using only measurements from the boundary. The backstepping method is used to design both the control law and a boundary observer. To apply backstepping the syste...

Due to uncertainties exist in the applications of the a permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) servo drive which seriously influence the control performance, thus, an integral backstepping control system using adaptive recurrent neural network uncertainty observer (RNNUO) is proposed to increase the robustness of the PMLSM drive. First, the field-oriented mechanism is applied to form...

This paper proposes a novel hybrid control of induction motor, based on the combination of the direct torque control DTC and the backstepping one, optimized by Genetic Algorithm (GA). First the basic evolution of DTC is explained, where the torque and stator flux are controlled by non linear hysteresis controllers which cause large ripple in motor torque at steady state operation. A Backsteppin...

An adaptive backstepping controller is designed for the automatic landing of a fixed-wing aircraft. The backstepping control scheme is adopted by using the nonlinear six degree-of-freedom dynamics of the aircraft during the landing phase. The adaptive law is integrated along with the backstepping controller in order to estimate the aircraft modeling errors as well as the external disturbance. T...

The main purpose of this paper is to integrate fuzzy logic control and sliding mode control techniques based on backstepping approach to develop a robust fuzzy backstepping sliding mode controller (RFBSMC) for an under-actuated quadrotor UAV system under external disturbances and parameter uncertainties. First, a robust backstepping sliding mode control for quadrotor is introduced briefly. More...

In this paper, an adaptive backstepping controller is proposed for the position tracking of a mechanical system driven by an induction motor (IM). The mechanical system is a single link fixed on the shaft of the induction motor. The backstepping methodology provides a simpler design procedure for a adaptive control scheme than the model reference adaptive control method, which is demonstrated i...

The robust H∞ control problem for the generator excitation system with the damping coefficient uncertainty and external disturbances, is addressed. Storage functions of the control system are constructed based on modified adaptive backstepping sliding mode control method and Lyapunov method. A nonlinear robust H∞ controller and a parameter updating law are obtained simultaneously. The controlle...

The paper presents a constructive control design for integrator backstepping in nonsmooth systems. The approach is based on non smooth analysis and Lyapunov stability for nonsmooth systems and is similar in spirit with the robust control designs that have appeared in literature, but is applicable to a larger class of systems. The backstepping controller is 1rst applied to the case of a unicycle...
