The ultra-precision wafer stage is an important mechatronic unit in a wafer scanner for manufacturing integrated circuits while its motion control is still the main concern. To overcome the performance-limiting trade-offs of fixed-gain discrete sliding mode control (DSMC), a novel variable-gain DSMC strategy with PID-type sliding surface is proposed for an ultra-precision wafer stage. Specially, PID-type sliding surface is employed to avoid the steady-state error induced by external disturbances. Via the exponential reaching law approach, DSMC with PID-type sliding surface is synthesized. Variable-gain control methodology is newly introduced into DSMC, and the control gain varies with the trajectory phase that the wafer stage is in and the tracking error magnitude. Performance assessment on a developed wafer stage validates that with nano-scale tracking accuracy the proposed strategy not only improves the low-frequency tracking ability without the amplification of high-frequency noise, but also possesses the excellent robustness to external disturbances.

This study considers the problem of energetical efficiency in switching type sliding mode control of discrete-time systems. The aim of this work is to reduce the quasi-sliding mode band-width and, as follows, the necessary control input, through an application of a new type of time-varying sliding hyperplane in quasi-sliding mode control of sampled time systems. Although time-varying sliding hyperplanes are well known to provide insensitivity to matched external disturbances and uncertainties of the model in the whole range of motion for continuous-time systems, their application in the discrete-time case has never been studied in detail. Therefore, this paper proposes a sliding surface, which crosses the system’s representative point at the initial step and then shifts in the state space according to the pre-generated demand profile of the sliding variable. Next, a controller for a real perturbed plant is designed so that it drives the system’s representative point to its reference position on the sliding plane in each step. Therefore, the impact of external disturbances on the system’s trajectory is minimized, which leads to a reduction of the necessary control effort. Moreover, thanks to a new reaching law applied in the reference profile generator, the sliding surface shift in each step is strictly limited and a switching type of motion occurs. Finally, under the assumption of boundedness and smoothness of continuous-time disturbance, a compensation scheme is added. It is proved that this control strategy reduces the quasi-sliding mode band-width from O(T) to O(T3) order from the very beginning of the regulation process. Moreover, it is shown that the maximum state variable errors become of O(T3) order as well. These achievements directly reduce the energy consumption in the closed-loop system, which is nowadays one of the crucial factors in control engineering.

Based on the sliding mode control methodology, this paper presents a robust control strategy for underactuated systems with mismatched uncertainties. The system consists of a nominal system and the mismatched uncertainties. Since the nominal system can be considered to be made up of several subsystems, a hierarchical structure for the sliding surfaces is designed. This is achieved by taking the sliding surface of one of the subsystems as the first-layer sliding surface and using this sliding surface and the sliding surface of another subsystem to construct the second-layer sliding surface. This process continues till the sliding surfaces of all the subsystems are included. A lumped sliding mode compensator is designed at the last-layer sliding surface. The asymptotic stability of all of the layer sliding surfaces and the sliding surface of each subsystem is proven. Simulation results show the validity of this robust control method through stabilization control of a system consisting of two inverted pendulums and mismatched uncertainties.
