Robust adaptive backstepping control of H‐bridge inverter based on type‐2 fuzzy optimization of parameters.

A type‐2 fuzzy logic‐based adaptive backstepping control (T2FABSC) approach is designed for an H‐bridge inverter. This inverter has an LC filter to decrease the level of total harmonic distortion (THD) that can affect the efficiency of the system. Reduction of THD and stability insurance of the filter are challenging trade‐offs, tackled here by a controller design. The performance, however, is not suitable for actual applications under a wider range of disturbances, and the parameters need to be adjusted once more for more dependable operations. Backstepping control is given a Lyapunov definition‐based adaptive mechanism that can improve this scheme's stability and robustness in the face of numerous disturbances. Additionally, the system is viewed as a "Black box" without the need for a precise mathematical model, which might lead to a lighter computing burden and simpler implementation. Moreover, a fuzzy type‐2 structure is adopted that can optimize the gains of the adaptive Backstepping controller (ABSC) in challenging conditions. The antlion optimization algorithm is employed to optimize the parameters of the membership functions in the fuzzy system, hence improving the performance of the controller. In addition, compared with different optimization algorithms, it can more quickly and accurately locate the best solutions. Finally, the findings of both the simulations and the experimental outputs are examined, proving the T2FABSC's significant robustness and faster dynamics in a variety of challenging circumstances.
