Sliding Mode Control (SMC) is a nonlinear control technique that is particularly effective for systems that are subject to uncertainties and disturbances. It is based on the concept of sliding surfaces, which represent a desired state or behavior of the system. The main idea is to design a control law that drives the system's state onto a predefined sliding surface and keeps it there for all subsequent time, thereby achieving robust performance.
