Abstract

The combination of sliding mode control and fractional order control (FOC) has received a considerable attention in the last years due to the advances and effectiveness of FOC solving robust control problems. This paper collects different methods to apply FOC in sliding mode problems through the use of fractional order surfaces and proposes a direct boolean control (BC) strategy based on this kind of surfaces. The application of BC is novel and takes advantage of avoiding the use of PWM. Simulation results for a DC-DC buck converter application are given to show the goodness of the proposed approach.
