Probing the efficacy of research contribution towards fuzzy sliding mode controller

The evolution of sliding mode controller is more than five decade old and at present its functionality has been further more improvised with an aid of fuzzy logic giving rise to a Fuzzy Sliding Mode Controlling System (FSMC). From practical utility viewpoint, it is found that usage of controller is very common in majority of commercial products in current scenario; however, it has not received the stage of excellence by incorporating peak intelligence system using fuzzy logic. Therefore, the present manuscript highlights the research contribution using FSMC towards evolution of various forms of controller design and performs quantitative analysis of the existing research trends to identify certain hidden traits in the existing approaches. The main contribution of this paper is to let a novel researcher working on control system know about the true picture of progress being made by utilizing FSMC and also put forwards certain sets of unaddressed problems in the form of research gap.
