Nonsingular Fast Terminal Sliding Mode Control for Spinning Missiles Based on Extended State Observer.

A backstepping nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode control with the extended state observer (ESO) is proposed for the uncertain factors of nonlinear spinning missile. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, the virtual control as sliding mode is taken in the backstepping design and then the tracking differentiator (TD) is employed to eliminate the "explosion of terms". In the last step of the backstepping design, nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode control is utilized to drive the angular velocity tracking error to converge to the origin in a finite period of time. To estimate the chattering phenomenon caused by disturbance influence variable in the system, an ESO is applied to estimate and compensate the impact from uncertainties and disturbances. The stability of the closed-loop system is proved. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed control method and the stability of the controller. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
