Abstract
In this paper, a global non-singular fast terminal sliding mode controller (FTSMC) is designed for an active gravity field simulator (AGFS). The stability of the control algorithm can be easily verified by using Lyapunov theory. It is shown that the proposed controller can eliminate the chattering effect without losing the robustness property. Simulation results show that faster and high-precision tracking performance can be obtained compared with the conventional continuous sliding mode control method.
