Chattering Elimination in Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control of Fractional Chaotic Systems Using a Fractional Adaptive Proportional Integral Controller.

In this paper, a Fractional Adaptive Fuzzy Logic Control (FAFLC) strategy based on active fractional sliding mode (FSM) theory is considered to synchronize chaotic fractional-order systems. Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems are used to estimate the plant dynamics represented by unknown fractional order functions. One of the main contributions in this work is to combine an adaptive fractional order PI^λ control law with the fractional-order adaptive sliding mode controller in order to eliminate the chattering action in the control signal. Based on Lyapunov theory, the stability analysis of the proposed control strategy is performed for an acceptable synchronization error level. Numerical simulations illustrate the efficiency of the proposed fractional fuzzy adaptive control scheme through the synchronization of two different fractional order chaotic Duffing systems. We show that the introduction of the additional fractional adaptive PI^λ control action is able to eliminate the chattering phenomena in the control signal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
