Design of Adaptive Fuzzy Sliding-Mode Control for High-Performance Islanded Inverter in Micro-Grid

In this paper, an adaptive fuzzy sliding-mode control (AFSMC) system is investigated for an islanded inverter to achieve a high-performance power supply. A sliding mode control (SMC) law is designed initially to obtain both the voltage tracking error and the current tracking error of the inverter involved, to realize both the output-voltage regulation and the current protection with global stability. Moreover, to deal with uncertainties in the practical inverter system without the chattering phenomenon, an adaptive fuzzy system embedded with a self-adjustive translation width is developed to replace the switch term of the SMC. In addition, the adaptation laws, derived from the Lyapunov stability theorem, adjust the AFSMC parameters online to guarantee optimal and robust performance. Furthermore, the superior control performance of the proposed AFSMC is verified by a numerical simulation in MATLAB, producing experimental results on the prototype in comparison with the conventional SMC.
