Terminal Sliding Mode Control with Unidirectional Auxiliary Surfaces for Hypersonic Vehicles Based on Adaptive Disturbance Observer

الملخص EN

A novel flight control scheme is proposed using the terminal sliding mode technique, unidirectional auxiliary surfaces and the disturbance observer model.

These proposed dynamic attitude control systems can improve control performance of hypersonic vehicles despite uncertainties and external disturbances.

The terminal attractor is employed to improve the convergence rate associated with the critical damping characteristics problem noted in short-period motions of hypersonic vehicles.

The proposed robust attitude control scheme uses a dynamic terminal sliding mode with unidirectional auxiliary surfaces.

The nonlinear disturbance observer is designed to estimate system uncertainties and external disturbances.

The output of the disturbance observer aids the robust adaptive control scheme and improves robust attitude control performance.

Finally, simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed terminal sliding mode with unidirectional auxiliary surfaces.
