Sliding mode control for chaotic systems based on LMI

Abstract: This paper investigates the chaos control problem for a general class of chaotic systems. A feedback controller is established to guarantee asymptotical stability of the chaotic systems based on the sliding mode control theory. A new reaching law is introduced to solve the chattering problem that is produced by traditional sliding mode control. A dynamic compensator is designed to improve the performance of the closed-loop system in sliding mode, and its parameter is obtained from a linear matrix inequality (LMI). Simulation results for the well known Chua’s circuit and Lorenz chaotic system are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
