Finite-time prescribed performance control of MEMS gyroscopes

This paper addresses the finite-time prescribed performance control of MEMS gyroscopes. From the perspective of practical engineering, this paper arranges the desirable transient and steady-state performances according to the engineering requirements in the controller design procedure. For the tracking performance, prescribed performance control is studied to limited the steady-state error and the maximum overshoot. For the prescribed settling time, super-twisting sliding mode control and nonsingular terminal sliding mode control are employed to achieve finite-time convergence, respectively. The system stability is verified via Lyapunov approach. Through simulation tests, it is demonstrated that prescribed performance and finite-time convergence can be obtained under the proposed control scheme.
