Position control of D.C. motor under the disturbances by new sliding mode control

A new control method for position control of D.C. servo motor based on the variable structure control is presented. The desired trajectory satisfying the given performance requirement is used as the sliding curve. And the control input forcing the system to follow the desired model system is applied. As a result the method is robust to disturbance. The performance of the proposed controller is compared with that of the conventional state feedback controller through digital computer simulation.
