Novel robust approach–based dynamic global terminal synergetic tracking control for uncertain second-order systems: Wind turbine system and power converter applications

Abstract

This article provides a systematic approach for synthesizing a novel robust synergetic control mechanism. This controller employs a dynamic global terminal synergetic surface with additional sinusoidal function. The overall macrovariable gives the system a rapid approaching rate, maintains the finite time stability, and provides a chattering-free control law. The stability analysis is validated for any uncertain second-order system via indirect approach of Lyapunov theorems. Furthermore, a hyperbolic tangent nonlinear disturbance observer is designed in order to estimate any lumped disturbance. The feasibility and the effectiveness of the proposed composite control law is tested and evaluated through simulations for simple model, wind turbine system and DC-DC buck converter. Finally, the simulation results show that the presented dynamic global terminal synergetic control–based hyperbolic tangent nonlinear disturbance observer can effectively reject the disturbances, enhance the robustness, and guarantee the tracking accuracy and rapidity.
