  • Abstract
    An experimental comparison is made between a sliding-mode controller and a classical controller for stabilizing and commanding a magnetic levitation system. The sliding-mode method can be applied to a nonlinear system in the global sense, and the issues of performance and robustness to modeling uncertainties and disturbances can be directly incorporated in the design as tradeoff parameters.<>
