ABSTRACT

This chapter gives a review of recent advances on networked sliding mode control (SMC). First, the main concepts of SMC theory have been recalled with a brief introduction of its background. Latest progress on first-order SMC and higher-order SMC (super-twisting algorithm) as well as terminal SMC is reviewed comprehensively. Then, various communication protocols that appear extensively in the context of networked systems are introduced and summarized, including static/dynamic/periodic event-triggered mechanism, stochastic communication protocol, Round-Robin protocol, weighted try-once-discard protocol, multiple-packet transmission protocol, and the redundant channel transmission protocol. Some latest progresses regarding the networked SMC under event-triggered protocols are presented. Finally, we provide the structure of the book with a brief introduction of contents of each chapter.
