Abstract

Abstract : This paper presents the design and implementation of a super-twisting algorithm second-order sliding mode controller (SOSMC) for a synchronous reluctance motor. SOSMC is an effective tool for the control of uncertain nonlinear systems since it overcomes the main drawbacks of conventional sliding mode control, that is, large control effort and chattering. The practical implementation of SOSMC has simple control laws and assures an improvement in sliding accuracy with respect to conventional sliding mode control. This paper proposes a control scheme based on super-twisting algorithm SOSMC. The SOSMC is mathematically derived, and its performance is verified by simulation and experiments. The proposed SOSMC is robust against motor parameter variation and mitigates chattering.
