Adaptive nonlinear backstepping control of SEDCM under velocity constraint

This paper presents an adaptive nonlinear position controller with velocity constraint, capable of combining the input-output linearization technique and Lyapunov stability theory. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, the adaptation law of the proposed controller is derived along with the verification of the overall system's stability. Computer simulation results demonstrate that the proposed controller is robust and it can ensure transient stability of SEDCM, under the occurrence of a large sudden fault
