Abstract
This article aims to present a barrier function based adaptive sliding mode (BFASM) control scheme for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with actuator saturation. In conventional adaptive sliding mode control for saturated systems, the adaptive gain is often monotonically increasing with respect to the persistent disturbance, which results in aggressive control input with severe chattering that is often giving rise to system instability. In order to solve this problem, this article proposes a BFASM controller with explicit consideration of actuator saturation and uncertainties. The proposed method contains a reaching control input that can adapt to the time-varying disturbances. In addition, the proposed method does not require the upper bound information of disturbance that is commonly requested in conventional sliding mode control and thus removes the conservative assumption on a sufficiently large control gain. Stability analysis proves that the tracking error under the proposed control can asymptotically converge into a prespecified region in the presence of actuator saturation, parameter uncertainties, and external disturbances. The proposed method is also applied to an air-floating positioning system with input saturation, and experimental results demonstrate its efficacy.
