High-efficiency permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is a key technology to improve the driving range of batteries in electric vehicles, while the mismatched disturbance that is caused by external disturbances and parameter perturbation may easily result in speed fluctuations and overshoot of the PMSM, which further deteriorate the performance and efficiency of batteries. To solve the problem, a novel nonlinear disturbance observer-based sliding mode control (NDO-SMC) is proposed. Compared with the traditional SMC method, the NDO-SMC scheme has better disturbance rejection ability in the presence of matched and mismatched uncertainties and disturbances by introducing the estimation value of the nonlinear disturbance observer in the sliding surface. Furthermore, owing to the compensation of the disturbance observer, the switching gain is only required to be greater than the bound of the disturbance estimation error rather than that of the disturbance; thus, the chattering problem is substantially alleviated. A rigorous stability proof of the whole closed-loop system is given in detail using Lyapunov theory by designing an appropriate Lyapunov function. The simulation results demonstrate the feasibility and superiority of the proposed NDO-SMC strategy.
