The control problem for a class of a nonlinear systems that contain the coupling of unmeasured states and unknown parameters is addressed. The system actuation is assumed to suffer from unknown dead zone nonlinearity. The parameters bounds of the unknown dead zone to be considered are unknown. Adaptive sliding mode controller, unmeasured states observer, and unknown parameters estimators are suggested such that global stability is achieved. Simulation for a single link mechanical system with unknown dead zone and friction torque is implemented for proving the efficacy of the suggested scheme.
This paper presents a new strategy for controlling induction motors with unknown parameters. Using a simple linearized model of induction motors, we design robust adaptive controllers and unknown parameters update laws. The control design and parameters estimators are proved to have global stable performance against sudden load variations. All closed loop signals are guaranteed to be bounded. Simulations are performed to show the efficacy of the suggested scheme.
