This paper is to present a new design of robust Iterative Learning Control (ILC) for the purpose of output tracking using continuous sliding mode technique. The main feature of the design is that the controller signal is continuous due to the use of integral and employment of second-order sliding mode technique. The proposed ILC is more robust to noises and disturbances than the saturation appr...

In this paper, sliding mode control (SMC) for a bidirectional buck/boost DC-DC converter (BDC) with constant frequency in continuous conduction mode (CCM) is discussed. Since the converter is a high-order converter, the reduced-order sliding manifold is exploited. Because of right-half-plan zero (RHPZ) in the converter’s duty ratio to output voltage transfer function, sliding mode current...

The problem of ordering chaos by second-order sliding-mode control is addressed. The proposed approach offers an effective, yet simple, solution tackling both the uncertainties affecting the chaotic dynamics and the measurement noise corrupting the feedback signals. The procedure is illustrated making reference to Chua's circuit and the “suboptimal” second-order sliding-mode control algorithm. ...
