Decentralized robust control for vehicle platooning subject to uncertain disturbances via super-twisting second-order sliding-mode observer technique

However, the comprehensive effect of the mismatched modeling dynamics and unknown disturbances can impose a great challenge on the convergence and stability of vehicle platooning. In this paper, we propose a novel decentralized robust control approach to address the external disturbances in vehicle platooning. Specifically, by combining a super-twisting second-order sliding mode (SOSM) strategy and a disturbance observer (DO), we design a super-twisting SOSMDO platoon controller. We also derive some design conditions of the controller and observer gains. Using the Lyapunov methodology, we theoretically prove under the design conditions the finite-time convergence of the super-twisting SOSMDO to the platooning equilibrium state and its closed-loop stability to the disturbances. Extensive simulations have been conducted and the results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed control approach in terms of inter-vehicle spacing, velocity tracking, and platoon robustness.
