A robust automotive controller design
by Alexander G. Loukianov, Jan Vittek, Bernardino Castillo-Toledo
International Journal of Modelling, Identification and Control (IJMIC), Vol. 3, No. 3, 2008

Abstract: This paper describes an application of the block control and sliding mode control techniques to form a stabilising controller for an internal combustion engine with a throttle driven by a DC motor. This combined approach enables the inherent non-linearities of the engine to be compensated and high-level external disturbances to be rejected. Also, the control system utilises a generalised observer for non-linear plants, which incorporates a high gain technique.
