Design of the Fuzzy Sliding Mode Controller for DC Motor

A fuzzy sliding mode controller is designed for controlling is proposed for speed tracking control of a separately excited DC motors (SEDCMs) in this paper. The method is based on Lyapounov stability, fuzzy and variable structure control theorems. First, the methodology of the fuzzy is used to estimate the unknown nonlinearities. When the system is in the sliding mode, the adaptive gain in the designed of the sliding surface is used to tackle the mismatched and unknown load torque disturbance. The result shows that the speed tracking error can be achieved in stability asymptotically.
