A switching fractional calculus-based controller for normal non-linear dynamical systems

In this paper, a fractional calculus-based terminal sliding mode controller is introduced for finite-time control of non-autonomous non-linear dynamical systems in the canonical form. A fractional terminal switching manifold which is appropriate for canonical integer-order systems is firstly designed. Then some conditions are provided to avoid the inherent singularities of the conventional terminal sliding manifolds. A non-smooth Lyapunov function is adopted to prove the finite time stability and convergence of the sliding mode dynamics. Afterward, based on the sliding mode control theory, an equivalent control and a discontinuous control law are designed to guarantee the occurrence of the sliding motion in finite time. The proposed control scheme uses only one control input to stabilize the system. The proposed controller is also robust against system uncertainties and external disturbances. Two illustrative examples show the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed fractional finite-time control strategy. It is worth noting that the proposed sliding mode controller can be applied for control and stabilization of a large class of non-autonomous non-linear uncertain canonical systems.
