Speed tracking and synchronization of a multimotor system based on fuzzy ADRC and enhanced adjacent coupling scheme

Abstract

In this paper, a speed tracking and synchronization control approach is proposed for a multimotor system based on fuzzy active disturbance rejection control (FADRC) and enhanced adjacent coupling scheme. By employing fuzzy logic rules to adjust the coefficients of the extended state observer (ESO), FADRC is presented to guarantee the speed tracking performance and enhance the system robustness against external disturbance and parametric variations. Moreover, an enhanced adjacent coupling synchronization control strategy is proposed to simplify the structure of the speed synchronization controller through introducing coupling coefficients into the conventional adjacent coupling approach. Based on the proposed synchronization control scheme, an adaptive integral sliding mode control (AISMC) is investigated such that the chattering problem in conventional sliding mode control can be weakened by designing an adaptive estimation law of the control gain. Comparative simulations are carried out to prove the superiorities of the proposed method.
