Special Issue:
Sliding Mode Based Disturbance Estimation,
Attenuation and Fault Detection
The performance of controlled complex dynamic systems inevitably suffers from various disturbances and uncertainties.
Moreover, different faults (sensor and actuator faults for example) can occur. Sliding mode based observers have shown high
performance for states and parameter estimation robustness with regards to measurement noise even in the presence of unknown
inputs. The aim of this Special Issue is to summarize and provide the recent advances in sliding mode based disturbance and
parameter estimation, faults detection (DPEFD) and their attenuation. The proposed Special Issue will facilitate faster uptake of
advanced sliding mode based DPEFD technologies, as well as address new challenges arising from upcoming complex control
systems, and generate new theories and methodologies.
Topics to be covered in this special issue include, but are not limited to the following:
n Sliding mode based external disturbance
estimation/observation
n � Sliding mode based unknown parameter identification
n Sensor noise filtering and attenuation
n Disturbance estimation/attenuation in stochastic,
uncertain or hybrid systems
n � Sliding mode observers based fault detection
n Unmatched disturbance attenuation with sliding
mode control
n � Sliding mode based fault tolerant control
n Applications of advanced disturbance estimation/attenuation
approaches to dynamic systems
All submissions are subject to the journal’s peer-review procedures. The authors should follow the journal’s Author Guide at
http://digital-library.theiet.org/journals/author-guide when preparing papers for submission to the Special Issue.

Open Access Publishing Now Available
In addition to the traditional subscription-funded model, The IET now offers a gold open access publication option in
IET Control Theory and Applications. This allows authors to disseminate their research to a wider audience.
Please contact us if you require any further information.
What is Open Access Publishing?
Open access publishing enables peer reviewed, accepted journal articles to be made freely available online to anyone with access
to the internet. Open access publishing with the IET is funded through author publication charges. This model differs from the
subscription based publishing model, whereby readers (or more commonly, readers’ institutions) pay for access to journal articles.
For more information, contact us on journals@theiet.org.
Why publish in IET Control Theory and Applications?
Worldwide readership and database coverage - including IET Inspec, SCI, Scopus and EI Compedex allows your research to
be easily accessed
n Online submission and tracking for up-to-date progress of your paper
n Prompt and rigorous peer review provides authors with a quick decision about publication
n Open access option available in all IET journals allows authors to disseminate their research to a wider audience
n IET journals are available online via the IET Digital Library and IEEE Xplore for easy sharing of your research
n Articles are published as e-first in advance of printed publication making your research available at the earliest opportunity
