A Design Method for Linear Motion Servocontrol System.

This paper proposes some practical methodology and design aids for the linear motion servocontrol systems such as the electromagnetic launchers. Mason’s gain formula was first used in the state space to solve for the transfer function of the complex and multiloop system rapidly and conveniently. The classical feedback control referring to the separation principle, involving a tracking controller and an observer-based compensator, may work well but has limited bandwidth under the constraint of the nominal inertia, and this fact is demonstrated rigorously in this paper and improved by a novel compensation scheme. According to the time-domain performance and Nyquist view, a delicate parameter design of control parameters is made for the tracking controller and the robust observer. The algorithm is verified by use of a rapid control prototype real-time simulation platform. The comparison of the experimental results shows that the proposed control scheme has good properties of trajectory tracking, antidisturbance, and noise suppression. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
