Robust control with compensation of adaptive model for dual-stage inertially stabilized platform

To achieve excellent tracking accuracy,a coarse-fine dual-stage control system is chosen for inertially stabilized platform.The coarse stage is a conventional inertially stabilized platform,and the fine stage is a secondary servo mechanism to control lens motion in the imaging optical path.Firstly,the dual-stage dynamics is mathematically modeled as a coupling multi-input multi-output(MIMO)control system.Then,by incorporating compensation of adaptive model to deal with parameter variations and nonlinearity,a systematic robust H∞control scheme is designed,which can achieve good tracking performance,as well as improve system robustness against model uncertainties.Lyapunov stability analysis confirmed the stability of the overall control system.Finally,simulation and experiment results are provided to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed control design method.

Parameter identification of inertially stabilized platforms using current command design

Accurate parameter identification is essential when designing controllers for inertially stabilized platforms （lSPs）. But traditional identification methods suffer from observation measurement noise and operating restrictions of ISPs. To address this issue, a novel identification method based on current command design and multilevel coordinate search （MCS） algorithm without any higher order measurement differentiations was proposed. The designed current commands were adopted to obtain parameter decoupled models with the platform operating under allowable conditions. MCS algorithm was employed to estimate the parameters based on parameter decoupled models. A comparison experiment between the proposed method and non-linear least square method was carried out and most of the relative errors of identified parameters obtained by the proposed method were below 10%. Simulation and experiment based on identified parameters were conducted. A velocity control structure was also developed with disturbance observer （DOB） for application in disturbance compensation control system of an ISR Experimental results show that the control scheme based on the identified parameters with DOB has the best disturbance rejection performance. It reduces the peak to peak value （PPV） of velocity error integral to 0.8 mrad which is much smaller than the value （10 mrad） obtained by the single velocity controller without DOB. Compared with the control scheme based on sweep model with DOB compensation, the proposed control scheme improves the PPV of velocity error integral by 1.625 times.

Double position calculation is adopted in this method, and by alignment at two sites the azimuth angle can be figured out. Also the orientation and the horizontal shifts of the gyro are simultaneously measured and compensated so as to improve the accuracy of north seeking. The system can automatically seek north when the vehicle is immobile. And the time consumption is no more than 5.5 min. Besides, the system can keep azimuth angle and provide tilt angle and pitch angle of the vehicle.

Improved Angular Velocity Estimation Using MEMS Sensors with Applications in Miniature Inertially Stabilized Platforms

The performance of any inertially stabilized platform （ISP） is strongly related to the bandwidth and accuracy of the angular velocity signals. This paper discusses the development of an optimal state estimator for sensing inertial velocity using low-cost micro-electro-mechanical systems （MEMS） sensors. A low-bandwidth gyroscope is used alone with two low-performance accelerometers to obtain the estimation. The gyroscope has its own limited dynamics and mainly contributes to the low-frequency components of the estimation. The accelerometers have inherent biases and mainly contribute to the high-frequency components of the estimation. Extensive experimental results show that the state estimator can achieve high-performance signals over a wide range of velocities without drifts in both the t- and s-domains. Furthermore, with applications in miniature inertially stabilized platforms, the control characteristic presents a significantly improvement over the existing methods. The method can be also applied to robotics, attitude estimation, and friction compensation.

Application in prestiction friction compensation for angular velocity loop of inertially stabilized platforms

Abstract To overcome the influence of the nonlinear friction on the gimbaled servo-system of an inertial stabilized platforms （ISPs） with DC motor direct-drive, the methods of modeling and compensation of the nonlinear friction are proposed. Firstly, the inapplicability of LuGre model when trying to interpret the backward angular displacement in the prestiction regime is observed experimentally and the reason is deduced theoretically. Then, based on the dynamic model of direct-drive ISPs, a modified LuGre model is proposed to describe the characteristic of the friction in the prestiction regime. Furthermore, the state switch condition of the three friction regimes including presliding, gross sliding and prestiction is presented. Finally, a composite compensation controller including a nonlinear friction observer and a feedforward compensator based on the novel LuGre model is designed to restrain the nonlinear friction and to improve the control precision. Experimental results indicate that compared with those of the conventional proportion-integrationdifferentiation （PID） control method and the PID plus LuGre model-based friction compensation method, the dwell-time has decreased from 0.2 s to almost 0 s, the position error decreased to 86.7% and the peak-to-peak value of position error decreased to 80% after the novel compensation controller is added. It concludes that the composite compensation controller can greatly improve the control precision of the dynamic sealed ISPs.
