Two Novel Approaches of NTSMC and ANTSMC Synchronization for Smart Grid Chaotic Systems

The presence of uncertainties and external disturbances is one of the unavoidable problems with various practical systems which might be unavailable in real-time. Sliding Mode Control (SMC) is one of the effective robust control methods to deal with these uncertainties and external disturbances. In this paper, two novel controllers are designed by using Nonsingular Terminal SMC (NTSMC) and Adaptive Nonsingular Terminal SMC (ANTSMC) methods for synchronization of dual smart grid chaotic systems with various uncertainties and external disturbances. Indeed, both adaptive and non-adaptive controllers based on NTSMC are proposed to provide two alternatives which can adjust by changing operating conditions and dynamics. The concept of SMC method guarantees controller robustness against various uncertainties and external disturbances. Elimination of the undesirable chattering phenomenon is addressed in this study which is one of the common deficiencies with conventional SMC method. Additionally, finite time concept is used to speed up the convergence rate. Finite time stability proof is performed by using Lyapunov stability theory. The numerical simulation is carried out in Simulink/MATLAB to reveal the validity of the proposed controllers for the smart grid chaotic system. A comprehensive comparison is made by performing simulation for the Fractional Order Adaptive Sliding Mode Control (FOASMC) controller and defining three performance criteria, among the proposed controllers in this study and FOASMC controller. © 2018, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
