Abstract This paper presents an averaged state model and the design of nonlinear observers for an on/off pneumatic actuator. The actuator is composed of two chambers and four on/off solenoid valves. The elaborated averaged state model has the advantage of using only one continuous input instead of four binary inputs. Based on this new model, a high gain observer and a sliding mode observer are designed using the piston position and the pressure measurements in one of the chambers. Finally, their closed-loop performances are verified and compared on an experimental benchmark.

The force and position of pneumatic actuators are difficult to control, since their nonlinear model includes unknown variables such as temperature and the discharge coefficient. This paper presents a specific sliding-mode observer to estimate these unknown time-variant quantities. The stability of the estimation error is studied, and real-time results show that the proposed approach combined with a feedback linearization controller performs better than a standard sliding-mode controller.
