This article presents a novel control strategy on an electro-hydraulic shaking table under the acceleration control combining an amplitude phase controller and a zero phase error tracking controller with a discrete feed-forward compensator. Because of the electro-hydraulic system’s nonlinearity, phase delay and amplitude attenuation exist in the acceleration response signal inevitably when the electro-hydraulic shaking table system is excited by a sine vibration signal. Moreover, the phase delay of the electro-hydraulic shaking table is composed of phase deviation and actuator delay. For improving the acceleration tracking accuracy, an amplitude phase controller is employed to compensate the phase deviation and amplitude attenuation by introducing weights to adjust the reference signal. Meanwhile, the discrete feed-forward compensator is applied to compensate the actuator delay. As an offline compensator, the zero phase error tracking controller is employed to compensate the phase delay of the response signal and improve the convergence speed of the proposed controller. Overall, the proposed control strategy combines the merits of these three controllers with better tracking performance demonstrated by simulation and experimental results.

For a class of three-loop architecture motion control system, two-stage close-loop identification is introduced to estimate the control plant and thus to tune the velocity controller. Based on the estimated model, PID position controller with derivative filter is proposed using pole-zero cancellation and pole assignment. Feed-forward compensators such as Velocity and Acceleration Feed-forward Controller (VAFC), Zero Phase Error Tracking Controller (ZPETC), Zero Magnitude Error Tracking controller (ZMETC) are introduced as well, and their effects are compared.

To achieve high robustness and precise motion control of permanent magnet linear synchronous motor servo system, an integrated controller is presented, including a velocity feed forward controller, a zero phase error tracking controller, a disturbance observer and inertia variation compensator. The velocity feed forward controller and the zero phase error tracking controller are included to improve tracking performance and the disturbance observer is involved to enhance disturbance rejection. However, both the zero phase error tracking controller and the disturbance observer are sensitive to inertia variation which often occurs in servo systems. So, an inertia compensator, which consists of a perfect tracking controller for the current loop and a compensation gain, is proposed to retain tracking performance. Detailed experiments are conducted on a PMLSM servo system to confirm the effectiveness of the integrated controller.

A trajectory control strategy for a nonminimum phase system is proposed. A continuous-time version of the Zero Phase Error Tracking Controller (ZPETC), which is a well-known discrete-time feedforward controller, is considered. In the continuous-time case, the overall transfer function consisting of the ZPETC and the closed-loop plant exhibits high-pass filter characteristics. This introduces serious gain errors between the desired and actual output if the desired output is made directly as the ZPETC’s input. This paper proposes the use of a specially designed sinusoidal trajectory to compensate for the gain errors. The sinusoidal trajectory imparts a synergic effect to tracking performance when combined with the continuous ZPETC. Continuous ZPETC with sinusoidal trajectory is evaluated successfully by applying to a nonminimum phase plant, single link flexible arm.

Several methodologies are proposed for identifying the dynamics of a machine tool feed drive system in the low frequency region. An accurate identification is necessary for the design of a feedforward tracking controller, which achieves unity gain and zero phase shift for the overall system in the relevant frequency band. In machine tools and other mechanical systems, the spectrum of the reference trajectory is composed of low frequency signals. Standard least squares fits are shown to heavily penalize high frequency misfit. Linear models described by the output-error (OE) and Autoregressive Moving Average with eXogenous Input (ARMAX) models display better closeness-of-fit properties at low frequency. Based on the identification, a feedforward compensator is designed using the Zero Phase Error Tracking Controller (ZPETC). The feedforward compensator is experimentally shown to achieve near-perfect tracking and contouring of high-speed trajectories on a machining center X-Y bed.

This paper presents an approach for optimal digital feed-forward tracking controller design. The tracking problem is formulated as a model matching problem, in which the distance between a specified tracking reference model and the achievable tracking performance by feedforward compensation is minimized. Desired input/output characteristics, finite length preview action, tracking of specific classes of constrained signals, time domain reference signal velocity or acceleration bound, and frequency domain weighting are conveniently incorporated in the proposed controller design and their roles in tracking performance are discussed. The tracking error bound is also explicitly expressed in terms of the controller design parameters. An l1 norm optimal tracking controller is proposed as a solution to the mechanical tolerance control problem. A motion control example illustrates the design approach and several aspects of the resulting optimal feedforward controller, including the optimality of the zero phase error tracking controller.
