Abstract
Conference Title: 2017 12th IEEE Conference on Industrial Electronics and Applications (ICIEA) Conference Start Date: 2017, June 18 Conference End Date: 2017, June 20 Conference Location: Siem Reap, Cambodia In this paper two control strategies, hierarchical sliding mode control and decoupled sliding mode control, for single input multi output (SIMO) systems are discussed. The goal is to determine which control strategy delivers better performance. Both controllers are applied to nonlinear models of inverted pendulum and ball-beam systems. Numerical simulations have been done in MATLAB to show that both controllers are capable for stabilization of SIMO systems. The results of numerical simulations show that hierarchical sliding mode control produced better performance for inverted pendulum system as compared to decoupled sliding mode control. For the ball-beam system both controllers showed almost the same performance.
