title = "Analysis of Sliding Mode Controllers in pulse width modulated systems",
abstract = "The use of Sliding Mode Controllers (SMCs) offers the benefits robust set-point tracking and good disturbance rejection characteristics yet can be discouraged due the chattering phenomenon associated. This chattering itself arises from the fact that the ideal SMC which is allegedly discontinuous and is to switch at infinite frequency can never be realized in practice as a result of parasitic or falsely modelled and neglected dynamics which introduces delays and add an overall lag in the feedback control loop. In systems involving the control of power converters, active filters or electric drives, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) techniques are often used as to generate discrete control signals to trigger the gates of the converter. The modulation action, however, constitutes a delay; thus, inhibits the proper operation of any SMC incorporated within the control loop.",
