Approach for Training On-line Neural Networks with Adaptive Learning Rate 523 Ademir Nied and José de Oliveira 491 VII Preface The theory of variable structure systems with sliding modes is currently one of the most important research topics within the control engineering domain Moreover, recently a number of important applications of the systems primarily in the field of power electronics, control of electric drives, robotics and position regulation of sophisticated mechanical systems have also been reported Therefore, the objective of this monograph is to present the most significant latest developments in the theory and engineering applications of the sliding mode control and to stimulate further research in this field The monograph consists of 28 chapters It begins with six contributions devoted to various significant issues in power electronics In the first chapter, Ben Saad et al propose, test and compare sliding mode and fuzzy sliding mode controllers for DC-DC converters In the second chapter, Petkova et al consider the operation of the singlephase inverter and single-phase active power filter and prove, both in simulations and laboratory experiments, the effectiveness of sliding mode controllers in these two applications Then, Al-Hosani et al also consider the design of DC-DC buck and boost converters They develop the sliding mode approach which implements – very common in industry – proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers The main idea of that chapter may be summarized as enforcing sliding mode such that the output converter voltage contains proportional, integral and derivative components with the predefined coefficients Chattering is then reduced through the use of multiphase power converter structure The proposed design methods are confirmed by means of computer simulations In the next chapter, Zhu and Kang consider arc welding/cutting power supply and propose a “synthetic” sliding mode and PI controller They propose to use the PI controller in the current loop and the sliding mode controller in the voltage loop The results are verified by experiments conducted on a 20 kW arc welding/cutting power source They show on one hand good dynamic performance of the system, and on the other decreased undesirable voltage overshoot Another contribution concerned with power electronics is the chapter by Ayad et al which presents sliding mode control of fuel cells, supercapacitors and battery hybrid sources for vehicle applications Then, the chapter by Susperregui presents and evaluates first-order and higher-order sensorless sliding mode control algorithms, for a doubly-fed induction generator The algorithms not only aim at governing active and reactive power exchange between the doubly-fed induction generator stator and the grid, but also ensure the synchronization required for smooth connection of the generator stator to the grid Sliding mode systems are a feasible option not only for power converter control but also for electric drive regulation Therefore an important issue of induction motor control is X Preface addressed in the next two chapters The chapter by Cortes-Romero and Sira-Ramirez presents a combination of two control loops, one employing a discontinuous sliding mode controller and another one based on the combination of generalized proportional integral control and generalized proportional integral disturbance observer The authors of the chapter demonstrate – by experiments performed on an actual induction motor test bed with a voltage controlled brake – that the proposed combination results in robust position and tracking control of induction motors In the next chapter, written by Reama et al a new simple and easy to implement adaptive sliding mode scheme for speed and flux control of induction motor using online estimation of the rotor resistance and load torque are proposed The two chapters on control of induction motors are followed by a contribution of Patre and Panchade, which is concerned with a unified sliding mode approach to torque, position, current and speed regulation of DC drives Then the next chapter, by Santo et al., presents the design and implementation of a sliding mode position controller for a linear switched reluctance actuator devoted primarily for robotic applications The section devoted to the problem of electric drive control ends up with a chapter on friction compensation for a mini voice coil motors The chapter written by Lin et al., demonstrates that sliding mode control approach may reliably eliminate stick slip oscillations and reduce the steady state error This conclusion is drawn based on experimental results performed on a mini voice coil motor mounted on a compact camera module The next three chapters are concerned with selected issues in robotics The first of them, written by Becerra and Sagues proposes a robust controller for image-based visual servoing for differential drive mobile robots The second one, by Rivera et al., is devoted to the application of a higher order, namely super-twisting sliding mode controller for trajectory tracking of an under-actuated manipulator and also for induction motors Then Herman and Kozłowski consider rigid, serial manipulators and present an extensive survey of selected non-adaptive sliding mode controllers expressed in terms of the inertial quasi-velocities They also point out a number of advantages offered by sliding mode control schemes using inertial quasi-velocities The next seven chapters present successful applications of sliding mode control paradigm in other areas than power electronics, electric drives and robotics The section devoted to those applications begins with the chapter by Fung and Chang on sliding mode force and motion control of three very popular mechanisms, i.e slider-crank, quick-return and toggle mechanism Then Tournes et al propose a higher order sliding mode control scheme for automatic docking of space vehicles The issue of higher order sliding mode control is also considered in the chapter, by Suares et al In that contribution higher order sliding mode is successfully used to suppress nonlinear dynamics in physical plants with friction which is inevitable in all mechanical systems Higher order sliding mode approach is further considered in the chapter by Salgado-Jiménez et al on control of remotely operated vehicles which are nowadays indispensable in performing the inspection tasks and maintenance of numerous underwater structures, common in the oil industry, especially in deep and not easily accessible to humans waters That chapter demonstrates that sliding mode control is a viable option for controlling underwater vehicles which operate in a highly dynamic and uncertain environment often affected by waves and strong currents Another interesting and very well worked out application is described in the next chapter authored by Schindele and Aschemann They propose three types of sliding mode controllers (conventional, second-order and proxy) for a linear axis driven by four pneumatic muscles and verify performance of these controllers on a laboratory test rig Then Kim et al present adaptive sliding mode controller of adhesion force between the rail and the wheel in railway rolling stocks The section concerned with various applications of sliding mode control concludes with the chapter by Wen on optimal fuzzy sliding mode control of biochips and biochemical reactions Sliding Mode Control and Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control for DC-DC Converters 3.2.2 Simulation and experimental results The SMC is tested by simulation and experimentally using a dSAPCE control board The test bench was built as shown in Fig 10 and Fig 11 around: a Buck converter, a computer equipped with a dSPACE DS1104 with its connector panel, a DC voltage power supply, two load resistances Fig Photo of the studied Buck converter Fig Photo of the test bench The dSPACE DS1104 controller board is a prototyping system It is a real time hardware platform It can be programmed with MATLAB/SIMULINK software through a real time interface allowing the generation of a real time code Two ADC input channels of the DS1104, characterized by a 16 bits resolution, are used to acquire the Buck converter output voltage and the inductance current The control board generates a digital PWM signal which is used to control the switch of the Buck converter The proposed SMC was applied to a Buck converter characterized by the parameters given in the table Parameters

voltage by application of a PWM control signal of 16% duty cycle The voltage response corresponds to a second order damped system response with an overshoot Fig presents the obtained result by application of the proposed SMC to the studied controller for a V voltage reference We can see clearly that the observed voltage overshoot obtained on the open-loop response disappeared by application of the SMC The SMC is tested experimentally for the case of the load variation Fig presents the obtained results for the case of the variation of the load resistance from 10 Ω to 15 Ω at 0.05s It is clear that this perturbation is quickly rejected because the output voltage attends the reference voltage The experimental test result for the case of the input voltage variation from 30 V to 20V, given in Fig 10, shows the robustness of the applied SMC 35 Vin V0 Voltage (V) 30 25 20 15 10 0.01 0.03 0.05 Time (s) 0.07 0.09 Fig 10 Experimental output voltage evolution by application of the SMC for the variation of the input voltage from 30V to 20V 3.3 SMC for Buck-Boost converter 3.3.1 Proposed SMC principle As for the Buck Converter, the Buck-Boost converter sliding surface and output voltage error are respectively defined by equations (8) and (9) k can be chosen so that the outer voltage loop is enough to guarantee a good regulation of the output voltage with a near zero steady-state error and low overshoot Without any high frequency, when the system is on the sliding surface, we have S = and S = (Hu et al, 2005; El Fadil et al, 2008) As the control signal applied to the switch is pulse width modulated, we have only to determine the equivalent control component By considering the mathematical model of the DC-DC Boost converter, at the study state the variation of the surface can be expressed as: S = ke = − kv0 = − k( − ueq C iL − v0 ) RC and then from equation (20) and by considering the condition S = we have: (19) 12 Sliding Mode Control kv0 + v0 − ueq = iL RC C (20) From the state representation (7) we can write the following relation: v0 ( − ueq ueq − v − k) = ( v0 + in ) RC C L L (21) Then equivalent control component expression: ueq = − vin + vin + kL (CRk − L )( vref − v0 ) R v0 (22) 3.3.2 Simulation results The proposed SMC was applied by simulation to the studied Buck-Boost converter characterized by the parameters given in Table Fig 11 presents the studied converter open-loop voltage and current responses In Fig 12 the output voltages evolution obtained by application of the SMC are presented for a reference voltages Vref = −20V So the application of the SMC allowed the elimination of the overshoot observed for the open-loop response Fig 13 presents the control signal We can notice that it is strongly hatched This is a consequence of the chattering phenomenon PARAMETERS VALUES Vin 20 V C 22 μF L mH R 10 Ω SWITCHING FREQUENCY 10 kHz Table Studied Buck Boost converter parameters To test the robustness of the SMC, we consider now the variations of the load resistance and the input voltage Fig 14 presents the evolution of the output voltage and the current in the load for the case of a sudden change of the load resistance from 30Ω to 20Ω So by the application of the SMC, this perturbation was rejected in 10.10-3s and the output voltage attends the reference voltage after Fig 15 illustrates the sudden variation of the input voltage from 15V to 10V at 0.05s For such case we notice that the output voltage, presented by Fig 16, attends after the rejection of the perturbation the desired value −20V and

apply a high order SMC However, the obtained analytical expression of the control component can be so complicated In the following, we will propose to apply a FSMC to the studied converters in order to improve the robustness of the SMC and to overcome the chattering problem FSMC for DC- DC converters As SMC, Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) is known to be robust Moreover, it is considered to be an alternative to the chattering problem FLC is an intelligent control complying with complex or uncertain systems Some researchers show that FLC is a general form of variable structure control Thus, some attempts have been made in order to integrate the SMC and FLC to a Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control (FSMC) However, the design of a fuzzy sliding mode controller for nonlinear system is a difficult problem There have been quite a lot of researches on the combination of sliding mode control with fuzzy logic control techniques for improving the robustness and the performances of nonlinear systems with uncertainty (Qiao et al, 03) We can distinguish two classes of control algorithms for FSMC The first class is the fuzzy boundary layer SMC where the signum function is replaced by a fuzzy map so that the control input switch in a smooth manner to the equivalent control component As consequence chattering is reduced As an example of this kind of control a FSMC proposed by PALM is adopted The second class consists of the set of fuzzy control algorithms which approximate the input-output map of traditional sliding mode control (Alouani, 1995) 4.1 Fuzzy boundary layer SMC For the first class of FSMC we present in the following the method proposed by PALM in (Palm, 1992) e S ep d0 dsn P( e p , e p ) E o ep e Fig 17 Distances dsn and d Let us consider a second order system and as an example the sliding surface defined as follows (Sahbani et al, 2008): S = EY T (23) 16 Sliding Mode Control where E = [ e e ] and Y = [ k 1] with k a constant gain and e the output system error The distance between the trajectory error and the sliding surface dsn is defined as follows: dsn = ep + kep (24) + k2 dsn is the normal distance between the point P( ep , ep ) and the sliding surface Such distance is illustrated graphically in Fig 17 for an arbitrary point P( e p , e p ) Let H ( ep , e p ) be the intersection point of the switching line and its perpendicular passing through the point P( e p , e p ) is defined as the distance between the point H ( ep , e p ) and the origin O The distance is expressed as follows: = 2 E − dsn (25) The presented FSMC has as inputs the two distances dsn and The output signal is the control increment ΔU ( k ) which is used to update the control signal defined as follows: U ( k ) = ΔU ( k ) + U ( k − 1) (26) The control law is equivalent to an integral action allowing a steady state error The presented FSMC is a Mamdani fuzzy inference system composed by a fuzzification block, a rule base bloc and a defuzzification block Trapezoidal and triangular membership functions, denoted by N (Negative), Z (Zero) and P (Positive), are used for dsn The same shape of membership functions denoted by Z (Zero), PS (Positive small ) and PB (Positive Big) are used for dsn and membership functions are presented respectively in Fig 18 and Fig 19 in the normalized domain [ −1 1] for dsn and [ 1] for -1 N P Z 0.5 dsn 0.5 Fig 18 dsn membership functions For the output signal of the proposed FSMC, fives triangular membership functions, denoted by NB (Negative Big), NM (Negative Middle), Z (Zero), PM (Positive Middle), PB (Positive Big) are used for the output signal Δd , Fig 20 The rule base is given by table Sliding Mode Control and Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control for DC-DC Converters PS Z 0.2 17 PB 0.4 0.6 0.8 d0 Fig 19 membership functions dsn N P Z PS Z NS PS PB PS NB PB Z PB NS NB Z PS Table Rule base of the proposed FSMC NB NS -1 -0.5 0.5 PB ΔU Fig 20 ΔU membership functions 4.2 Fuzzy Lyapunov function SMC The second class of FSMC uses the surface S and its variation S to define the changes on the control signal The aim of this kind of FSMC is to insure the Lyapunov stability condition SS < Let us consider the sliding surface S The proposed fuzzy sliding mode controller forces the derivative of the Lyapunov function to be negative definite So, the rule base table is established to satisfy the inequality (17) 18 Sliding Mode Control Intuitively, suppose that S > and S > , the duty cycle must increase Also, if S < and S < the duty cycle must decrease Thus, the surface S and its variation S are the inputs of the proposed controller The output signal is the control increment ΔU ( k ) which is used to update the control law As for the Fuzzy boundary layer SMC the control signal is defined by equation (26) The proposed Fuzzy Sliding Mode Controller is a Sugeno fuzzy controller which is a special case of Mamdani fuzzy inference system Only the antecedent part of the Sugeno controller has the “fuzzyness”, the consequent part is a crisp function In the Sugeno fuzzy controller, the output is obtained through weighted average of consequents As the proposed approach have to be implemented in practice, such choice can be motivated by the fact that Sugeno fuzzy controller is less time consuming than the Mamdani one Trapezoidal and triangular membership functions, denoted by N (Negative), Z (Zero) and P (Positive), were used for both the surface and the surface change They are respectively presented in Fig 21 and Fig 22 in the normalized domain [ −1 1] For the output signals, fives normalized singletons denoted by NB (Negative Big), NM (Negative Middle), Z (Zero), PM (Positive Middle), PB (Positive Big) are used for the output signal ΔU , Fig 23 The normalized control surface of the proposed FSMC, corresponding to the Rule Base given in table 5, is presented in Fig 24 Such surface shows clearly the nonlinear characteristic of the proposed fuzzy control law N Z P -1 -0,5 0,5 S Fig 21 Surface S membership

and Buck Boost converters 4.3 Application of the Fuzzy Lyapunov function SMC to Buck and Buck-Boost converters The proposed Fuzzy Lyapunov function SMC is applied to the Buck and Buck-Boost converter to prove the efficiency of the proposed control law The obtained results are compared to the classical SMC As a fuzzy control, the main advantage of the FSMC is that it is not based on an analytical study 20 Sliding Mode Control 4.3.1 Application of the Fuzzy Lyapunov function SMC to Buck Fig 25 presents the simulated output voltage and output current evolutions by application of the proposed FSMC for a reference voltage Vref = 5V The obtained result is similar to the one obtained by SMC As the SMC, the SMC is tested experimentally for the case of the load variation Fig.26 presents the obtained results for the case of the variation of the load resistance from 10 Ω to 15 Ω at 0.05s The perturbation is rejected and the output voltage attends the reference voltage Moreover, the amplitudes of oscillations are smaller than those obtained by application of the SMC As for the SMC, the experimental test result for the case of the input voltage variation from 30 V to 20V, given in Fig.27, shows the robustness of the applied FSMC for this kind of variation Voltage (V) 0 0.5 1.5 2.5 3.5 4.5 Time (s) -3 x 10 Fig 25 Output voltage evolution by application of the SMC to the studied

Application of the Fuzzy Lyapunov function SMC to Buck-Boost converter The proposed control is now applied to the studied Buck-Boost converter Fig 28 presents the simulated control signal obtained by application of the proposed FSMC By comparison with the control signal obtained by application of the SMC and presented in Fig 13, we notice that the control signal is smooth So the chattering

Fig 12 we can notice a small oscillation Fig 30 presents the evolution of the output voltage and the current in the load for a change of the load resistance from 30Ω to 20Ω By application of the FSMC, this perturbation was rejected and the output voltage attends the reference voltage after 30 10-3 s For the case of a variation of the input voltage from 15V to 10V at 0.05s the output voltage, presented by Fig 31, attends after the rejection of the perturbation the desired reference value −20V 22 Sliding Mode Control Voltag e (V) -5 -10 -15 -20 -25 -30 0.01 0.02 0.03 0.04 0.05 0.06 Time (s)

application of SMC with those obtained by FSMC we can notice that SMC allows a faster rejection of the perturbation than SMC for the case of the studied Buck-Boost converter Conclusion In this chapter, Sliding Mode Control (SMC) and Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control (FSMC) for Buck, Boost and Buck-Boost converters are proposed, tested and compared SMC is suitable for switched mode DC-DC converters Moreover, such control approach leads to good results Two classical SMC are proposed respectively for Buck and Buck-Boost converters The obtained simulation and practical results confirm the robustness of this control technique The extension of SMC into FSMC aims to improve the SMC robustness and to overcome the chattering problem Two classes of FSMC are presented in this chapter The first class of FSMC aimed to reduce chattering by changing the nonlinear component control by a fuzzy function The second class of FSMC is based on a fuzzy control insuring the Lyapunov function stability Then, a Fuzzy Lypunov based SMC is developed and applied to the Buck and Buck-Boost converters FSMC is not based on a rigorous analytical study as SMC Thus, the same FSMC can be applied to Buck and Buck-Boost converters In addition, FSMC allows the reduction of chattering for the case of the Buck-Boost converter thanks to the fuzzy control surface which allows a smooth and continuous control signal However, the obtained results are nearly similar to those obtained by SMC References Ahmed M.; Kuisma M.; Tolsa K & Silventoinen P (2003) Standard procedure for modelling the basic
