... theory Control theory In recent years, much of the research in the area of the control systems theory focused on the discontinuous feedback design which switches the structure of the system according to the evolution of its state vector. This kind of control, usually called sliding mode control...

... and state space representation. Basic control theory is used for analysing the dynamic properties. Findings A set of expressions are derived for the smoothing techniques and dynamic properties are identified. Practical implications Dynamic properties are important in many applications. It is shown...
