Review text

A non-minimum phase system of a planar vertical take-off and landing (PVTOL) aircraft is considered in the presence of bounded/sector additive external uncertainties. A variable structure control is proposed. Essentially, a thin layer is introduced around the sliding surface. Outside the layer, a sliding mode controller is used. Inside the layer, a second controller is activated in order to reduce asymptotically the control signal. The stability of the resulting closed-loop system is studied. It is proved (under suitable assumptions), that ultimate bounded regulation with arbitrary tracking error can be achieved with bounded control.
