Robust regulation for a 3-DOF helicopter via sliding-mode observation and identification

TLDR
Experimental results show the feasibility of the robust regulation controller designed in this paper, which is based on a sliding mode observer used to estimate the state vector in finite time and identify the uncertainties and perturbations using the information of the equivalent output injection.
Abstract
This paper tackles the problem of robust output regulation for a 3-DOF helicopter. The considered system is subjected to model uncertainties and external perturbations. A sliding mode observer is used to estimate the state vector in finite time and identify the uncertainties and perturbations using the information of the equivalent output injection. Based on these estimations a robust regulation controller is designed. Experimental results show the feasibility of this approach.

A Lyapunov approach to second-order sliding mode controllers and observers

TL;DR: The introduction of a Lyapunov function allows not only to study more deeply the known properties of finite time convergence and robustness to strong perturbations, but also to improve the performance by adding linear correction terms to the algorithm.
