Piecewise Adaptive Sliding Mode Control for Aeroengine Networked Control Systems with Resource Constraints

Abstract EN

Within the future application of wireless network for the aeroengine control problem, resource constraints (caused by the limitation of hardware) and network traffic restriction must be considered as one of the difficulties to be solved; thus, the network connection and transmission efficiency can be ensured.

With focus on the problem of active packed dropout, a MEF-TOD (Maximum Error First-Try Once Discard) scheduling based network parameter and sliding mode joint design method has been proposed.

First, a scheduling protocol strained control system and network parameter joint model have been established based on MEF-TOD scheduling strategy, taking sampling period and data packet capacity as unknown network parameters.

Subsequently, considering the influence of scheduling strategy, a sliding surface containing a compensation term has been designed, and then a sliding mode parameter and unknown network parameter heuristic joint design method has been developed.

Finally, an attenuation factor based piecewise adaptive sliding mode strategy has been designed considering the influence of sampling period on system performance.

Simulation results indicate that the joint design method can obtain the network parameter group which has the minimum performance function upper bound, thus achieving relatively high network utilization.

The proposed piecewise adaptive sliding mode controller has good dynamic performance and is robust to the packet dropout problem caused by network scheduling and can effectively suppress chattering.
