An adaptive sliding mode controller with free-will arbitrary time convergence for three-phase rectifiers in autonomous agricultural vehicles.

ABSTRACT: This study describes a novel adaptive free-will arbitrary time sliding mode controller (AFWATSMC) designed to improve the performance of a three-phase rectifier in an autonomous oil palm grabber vehicle (Robot Autonomous Mechanical Buffalo Grabber (MBG)). The graber, initially powered by a diesel engine with an uncontrolled rectifier, was upgraded to support intelligent systems that require stable DC voltage management. To address the limitations of conventional rectifiers, the suggested AFWATSMC integrates adaptive factors to improve the performance of the original free-will arbitrary time algorithm. The key innovation of this work lies in combining the adaptive sliding-mode control structure with the free-will arbitrary convergence time algorithm, permitting user-defined system settling
