Abstract

Although sliding mode control has many advantages such as stability and robustness but there are two important disadvantages as follow: Chattering phenomenon and mathematical nonlinear dynamic equivalent controller part. So, this paper presents a new method of adaptive sliding mode control based on general type-2 fuzzy logic to overcome on the mentioned problems. First, the longitudinal motion equations of a commercial aircraft and the upper limits of the unknown functions are introduced, which include the driving errors and uncertain parameters of the model. Then, a general type-2 fuzzy neural network (GT2FNNs), with adaptive rules, estimates these limits. Estimating the limits can reduce the computational load with less rules and weight than the dynamic matrix. The Boeing 747 is being studied and an attempt has been made to use a model very close to this aircraft. The stability of the control system has been proven. The simulation results show that by applying three models of faults to the aircraft system, the proposed type-2 fuzzy-based sliding mode control has excellent performance, especially in controlling the Aileron and Rudder angles.
