Advances in Discrete-Time Sliding Mode Control (Hardcover)

Hardcover. The focus of this book is on the design of a specific control strategy using digital computers. This control strategy referred to as Sliding Mode Control (SMC), has its roots in (continuous-time) relay control. This book aims to explain recent investigations' output in the field of discrete-time sliding mode control (DSMC). The book starts by explaining a new robust LMI-based (state-feedback and observer-based output-feedback) DSMC including a new scheme for sparsely distributed control. It includes a novel event-driven control mechanism, called actuator-based event-driven scheme, using a synchronized-rate biofeedback system for heart rate regulation during cycle-ergometer.Key Features: Focuses on LMI-based SMC (sliding mode control) for uncertain discrete-time system using novel nonlinear components in the control law Makes reader understand the techniques of designing a discrete controller based on the flexible sliding functions Proposes new algorithms for sparsifying control and observer network through multi-objective optimization frameworks Discusses a framework for the design of SMC for two-dimensional systems along with analyzing the controllability of two-dimensional systems Discusses novel schemes for sparsifying the control network Focussing on the design of a specific control strategy using digital computers, this book explains a new robust LMI-based (state-feedback and observer-based output-feedback) DSMC (discrete-time sliding mode control) including a new scheme for sparsely distributed control. It also discusses recent investigations' output in the field of DSMC. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
