“…However, it should be noted that the servo control performance is significantly affected by nonlinearities, uncertainties, and disturbances in PMSM systems, and the traditional linear control strategies including the proportional-integral (PI) controller [5] are unable to provide satisfactory control performance [6]. In order to obtain better performance, many advanced nonlinear control methods have been developed for PMSM servo systems in recent years, such as adaptive control [2,7], robust control [8,9], linearization control [10], disturbance observer-based control [2,11], fuzzy-logic based control [6,12], finite time control [13,14], fractional order control [15], sliding mode control [16,17], and neuro-network based control [5,12]. ese control strategies improve control performance for PMSM servo systems from different aspects.…”
