Sliding Mode Control of Symmetric Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Based on Novel Adaptive Reaching Law and Combining Improved Terminal Fast Sliding Mode Disturbance Observer

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSMs) exhibit inherent symmetry in their electromagnetic structure yet behave as nonlinear and strongly coupled systems that are susceptible to internal parameter perturbations and external disturbances, posing challenges to effective control under dynamic operating conditions. To address these issues, this paper proposes a sliding mode control strategy for PMSMs that integrates a Novel Adaptive Reaching Law (NARL) and an Improved Terminal Fuzzy Sliding Mode Disturbance Observer (IFTSMDO), denoted as SMC-NARL-IFTSMDO. The NARL is designed with a state-dependent dynamic gain adjustment mechanism and terminal attractive factor characteristics: it increases the gain to ensure fast convergence when the system state is far from the sliding mode surface, and adaptively attenuates the gain to suppress chattering when approaching the sliding mode surface, thereby balancing the contradiction between convergence speed and chattering in traditional sliding mode control. The IFTSMDO constructs a composite sliding mode surface incorporating error derivatives, terminal power terms, and saturation functions, which enhances the sensitivity of disturbance estimation in the small-error stage, avoids high-frequency chattering caused by sign functions, and provides accurate feedforward compensation for the speed loop controller to improve the system’s anti-disturbance capability. Additionally, the asymptotic stability of the proposed control strategy is strictly proven using the Lyapunov stability theory, laying a solid theoretical foundation for its application. Experiments are conducted on a TMS320F28379D DSP-based platform, and quantitative results show that compared with the traditional sliding mode control (SMC-TRL), the proposed strategy reduces the no-load startup response time by 60%, the steady-state speed fluctuation by 60%, and the speed fluctuation under load disturbance by 81.5%, fully demonstrating its superiority in dynamic response and anti-disturbance performance.

Abstract

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSMs) exhibit inherent symmetry in their electromagnetic structure yet behave as nonlinear and strongly coupled systems that are susceptible to internal parameter perturbations and external disturbances, posing challenges to effective control under dynamic operating conditions. To address these issues, this paper proposes a sliding mode control strategy for PMSMs that integrates a Novel Adaptive Reaching Law (NARL) and an Improved Terminal Fuzzy Sliding Mode Disturbance Observer (IFTSMDO), denoted as SMC-NARL-IFTSMDO. The NARL is designed with a state-dependent dynamic gain adjustment mechanism and terminal attractive factor characteristics: it increases the gain to ensure fast convergence when the system state is far from the sliding mode surface, and adaptively attenuates the gain to suppress chattering when approaching the sliding mode surface, thereby balancing the contradiction between convergence speed and chattering in traditional sliding mode control. The IFTSMDO constructs a composite sliding mode surface incorporating error derivatives, terminal power terms, and saturation functions, which enhances the sensitivity of disturbance estimation in the small-error stage, avoids high-frequency chattering caused by sign functions, and provides accurate feedforward compensation for the speed loop controller to improve the system’s anti-disturbance capability. Additionally, the asymptotic stability of the proposed control strategy is strictly proven using the Lyapunov stability theory, laying a solid theoretical foundation for its application. Experiments are conducted on a TMS320F28379D DSP-based platform, and quantitative results show that compared with the traditional sliding mode control (SMC-TRL), the proposed strategy reduces the no-load startup response time by 60%, the steady-state speed fluctuation by 60%, and the speed fluctuation under load disturbance by 81.5%, fully demonstrating its superiority in dynamic response and anti-disturbance performance.
