ABSTRACT

So far, in all previous chapters, we have been dealing only with the design and implementation of SM controllers of which the control variable used for constructing the sliding manifold is the output voltage. Using only the linear weighted summation of the voltage error, its time derivative, and time integral, the result is a linear sliding manifold of which the design can be easily accomplished through the use of the Ackermann’s Formula for determining the control coefficients and a simple stability analysis of the sliding manifold.
