Robust Observer Based on Fixed-Time Sliding Mode Control of Position/Velocity for a T-S Fuzzy MEMS Gyroscope

This study focused on a control system of the nonlinear micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) gyroscope. First, sector nonlinearity was used to model a MEMS gyroscope in the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy system. Second, a state observer was designed based on linear matrix inequality (LMI) to identify the optimal eigenvalues of the state tracking error function. Then, full-state fixed-time sliding mode control (FTSMC) was constructed to control the system. Third, a case study of a harmonic disturbance observer was used to address the unknown disturbance of the system. A disturbance observer (DOB) was simply designed based on the error signals of the system outputs and observer outputs. The output signals precisely converged to the predefined trajectories in a very short time, with no overshoots and small of steady-state errors. Moreover, the estimated output states were precisely tracked by the system outputs. These important factors were used to confirm that the control of the T-S fuzzy MEMS was effective and easy to achieve. The study used MATLAB simulation to archive the verification. The maximum of tracking error was ℓ
