A Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control for Rotational Inverted Pendulum

  • Published : 2006.11.17

Abstract

Rotational inverted pendulum is a typical under-actuated system. For its highly nonlinear characteristic, a sliding mode controller is chosen for its robustness against the system uncertainties. Tow fuzzy inference mechanisms are applied in this paper to reduce the chattering phenomenon. One is proposed to construct a time-varying sliding surface. Another one is used to obtain the minimum upper bound of the uncertainties. A comparison between the conventional sliding mode and the fuzzy sliding mode is shown by simulations.
