Abstract
Sliding mode control (SMC) is emerged as a powerful robust controller for the process control application. However, it does not posses robustness properties during reaching phase and suffers from chattering, which is undesirable. In this paper, a chatter free discrete sliding mode controller (DSMC) with reaching phase elimination is proposed. The issue of existence of reaching phase due to physical constraints such as saturation of actuating devices is also addressed. The two-input–two-output (TITO) system is decoupled into two single-input–single-output (SISO) systems using ideal decoupler. The DSMCs are separately designed for two decoupled SISO systems. The stability is ensured via Lyapunov approach. Simulation study and experimentation on real life interacting two tank liquid level system are included to demonstrate effectiveness and applicability of the proposed controller.
