A Novel Fuzzy Logic Based Adaptive Super-Twisting Sliding Mode Control Algorithm for Dynamic Uncertain Systems

This paper presents a novel fuzzy logic based Adaptive Super-twisting Sliding Mode Controller for thecontrol of dynamic uncertain systems. The proposed controller combines the advantages of Second orderSliding Mode Control, Fuzzy Logic Control and Adaptive Control. The reaching conditions, stability androbustness of the system with the proposed controller are guaranteed. In addition, the proposed controlleris well suited for simple design and implementation. The effectiveness of the proposed controller over thefirst order Sliding Mode Fuzzy Logic controller is illustrated by Matlab based simulations performed on aDC-DC Buck converter. Based on this comparison, the proposed controller is shown to obtain the desiredtransient response without causing chattering and error under steady-state conditions. The proposedcontroller is able to give robust performance in terms of rejection to input voltage variations and loadvariations
