Dual-Disturbance Observers-Based Control for a Class of Singularly Perturbed Systems

Singularly perturbed systems (SPSs) wildly exist in practical engineering practice; however, the disturbance rejection in SPSs is still a problem. As well-known disturbance rejection methods, composite hierarchical anti-disturbance control (CHADC) can effectively compensate and suppress disturbance, which improves the control performances of complex systems. To enhance the capability of anti-disturbance and control precision, this article proposes a novel composite hierarchical anti-disturbance (CHAD) dynamic surface control (DSC) for the fast subsystem considering highly dynamic disturbance, and CHAD proportion-integration (PI) control for the slow subsystem with slow-varying harmonic disturbance. The disturbances are supposed to be generated by an exogenous system based on partially known information with model uncertainty, and the stabilities of both fast and slow closed-loop subsystems are analyzed. Meanwhile, the compensability of disturbances is discussed. Finally, simulations for an F-8 aircraft are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
