Adaptive backstepping sliding mode control of permanent magnet spherical motor based on disturbance observer.

Abstract

This paper proposes an adaptive backstepping sliding mode control method based on a nonlinear disturbance observer (NDO) to solve the problem that the tracking performance of the motion system of a permanent magnet spherical motor (PMSpM) is degraded due to the influence of external nonlinear disturbance. First, the dynamic model of the PMSpM under the compound interference is established. Second, an NDO and an adaptive backstepping sliding mode controller are designed to compensate for the external disturbances and modeling uncertainties, and the stability of the closed-loop system using the proposed method is confirmed through the Lyapunov theorem. Then, compared with the results of proportion differentiation control and conventional sliding mode control, the simulation results show that the proposed method can significantly reduce input signal chattering and improve the trajectory tracking performance of the PMSpM. Finally, experimental results are provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
