With the rapid development of microgrid technology, microgrid projects are no longer limited to laboratory demonstrations and pilot platforms. It shows greater value in practical applications. Hence, the smooth interaction between a microgrid and the main grid plays a critical role. In this paper, a control method based on active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) is proposed in order to realize seamless transitions between grid-connected and islanding operation modes and stable operation with variable loads. It is verified by simulations that the proposed ADRC-based method features better performance when compared to conventional proportional-integral-differential (PID) control. Meanwhile, the stability of the third-order extended state observer (ESO) in second-order ADRC is validated by using Lyapunov stability criteria.

A new current control technique for inverter-fed vector controlled induction motor drives is presented. Using a integral variable structure control(IVSC) approach, the current controller is designed in the stationary rotating reference frame. The chattering reduction technique is also considered by the full state flux observer. By employing the proposed control scheme, a good control performance is achieved in the transient and steady state. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through the comparative simulations.

In the physical system, if we can precisely control an acceleration and force, we can improve the performance of their integral values, velocity and position. From this point of view, in this paper we try to use an obverser which is constructed by using Variable Structure System for estimating the acceleration in the system with the bounded unknown disturbance and the parameter mismatching. To obtain the robust control performance, the VSS with sliding mode is adopted in the design of the servo controller.

Many robust controllers have been studied but most are considered in the theoretical point of view and can be used for only specific systems. So, in this paper, a more practical robust controller is proposed based on SMC(sliding mode control) and disturbance observer. The integral sliding mode is used to eliminate the reaching phase and minimizes the steady-state error, and the disturbance observer reduces the chattering due to the switching input for the bounded disturbances. The inevitable chattering of SMC is also removed by replacing the sign function with dead-zone function. The proposed controller has the improved steady-state error and robustness compared to PID controller.

In this paper, a new integral variable structure regulation controller(IVSRC) is designed by using a special integral sliding surface and a disturbance observer for the improved regulation control of highly nonlinear robot manipulators with prescribed output performance. The sliding surface having the integral state with a special initial condition is employed in this paper to exactly predetermine the ideal sliding trajectory from a given initial condition to origin without any reaching phase. And a continuous sliding mode input using the disturbance observer is also introduced in oder to effectively follow the predetermined sliding trajectory within the prescribed accuracy without large computation burden. The performance of the prescribed tracking accuracy to the predetermined sliding trajectory is clearly investigated in detail through the two theorems together with the closed loop stability. The design of the proposed IVSRC is separated into the performance design and robustness design in each independent link. The usefulness of the algorithm has been demonstrated through simulation studies on the regulation control of a two link manipulator under parameter uncertainties and payload variations, in view of no reaching phase, no overshoot, predetermined response with prescribed accuracy, easy change of output performance, separation of design phase, and so on.

This paper proposes a robust controller for flexible joint robots to achieve tracking performance and to improve robustness against both matched and mismatched disturbances. The proposed controller consists of a disturbance observer(DOB), passivity-based controller, and integral sliding mode controller(ISMC) in a backstepping manner. The DOB compensates the mismatched disturbance in the link-side and formulates the reference input for the motor-side controller. Interconnection and damping assignment passivity-based controller (IDA-PBC) performs tracking control of motor-side, and it is integrated to nominal control of ISMC to guarantee the over-all stability of the nominal system, while, matched disturbances are decoupled by the discontinuous control of ISMC. In the design of the link-side controller, PD type impedance controller is designed with DOB and this leads the continuous control input which is suitable to the reference input for the motor-side.

This article explores the speed regulation problem of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) systems subjected to unknown time-varying disturbances. A continuous sliding mode control (CSMC) technique is introduced for the speed loop to enhance the robustness of PMSM systems and eliminate the chattering phenomenon caused by high-frequency switch function in the conventional control law. However, the high control gain of the CSMC law in the presence of strong disturbances leads to large steady-state speed fluctuations for PMSM systems. In many application fields, PMSM systems are affected by time-varying disturbances instead of constant disturbances. For example, electric bicycles are usually affected by changing environmental disturbances, including wind speeds, road conditions, etc. These disturbances may be in the form of constant, ramp, and parabolic disturbances. Hence, a generalized proportional integral (GPI) observer is employed to estimate these types of disturbances. Then, the disturbance estimation method and the aforementioned CSMC method are combined to establish a composite sliding mode control method called the CSMC+GPI method for the speed loop of PMSM systems. Contrary to the conventional sliding mode control technique, the proposed method completely eliminates the chattering phenomenon caused by the switching function in the conventional control law. Moreover, a small control gain for the CSMC+GPI method is chosen by feed-forwarding estimated values to the speed controller. Hence, the steady-state speed fluctuations are small. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is verified by simulation and experimental result.

This paper proposes a robust impedance controller for high-DOF robots. The model-based control of a higher DOF robot uses a numerical dynamic model because the analytical dynamic model is difficult to be derived and this means that modeling error is inevitable. The impedance control in the task space is affected by joint motions and has more difficulties in the higher DOF robots. In addition, the disturbances must be decoupled in the control of high DOF robot. This paper proposes a robust impedance controller based on integral sliding mode control (ISMC) and disturbance observer(DOB) for high-DOF robot manipulator. The ISMC is used to improve the robustness of the impedance control and to preserve its nominal performance. DOB is also employed to cancel the effects of input disturbances and to reduce the maximum gain of the ISMC which eventually determines the input chattering size.

A ship's automatic steering system is the basis for addressing control difficulties related to course-changing and course-keeping during navigation through heading angle control, and is a link in realizing unmanned and autonomous ships. This study proposes a robust RCGA-based linear active disturbance rejection controller (LADRC) design method considering environmental disturbances, measurement noise, and model uncertainties in designing a ship heading controller for use when the ship is sailing. The LADRC consisted of a transient profile, a linear extended state observer, and a PD controller. The control gains in the LADRC with the linear extended state observer were adjusted by RCGAs to minimize the integral of the time-weighted absolute error (ITAE), which is an evaluation function of the control system. The proposed method was applied to ship heading control, and its effectiveness was validated by comparing the propulsive energy loss between the proposed method and a conventional linear PD controller. The simulation results showed that the proposed method had the advantages of lower propulsive energy loss, more robustness, and higher tracking precision than the conventional linear PD controller.
