Wj. Cao et Xk. Gao, Repetitive variable structure control of micro-actuators with periodic disturbance and parametric uncertainties, IEEE MAGNET, 37(4), 2001, pp. 1902-1905
The demand for higher accuracy and bandwidth motivates dual-stage actuator
system which circumvents the limitations of a single-stage positioning syst
em. In this system, the micro-actuator acts as a fine positioning mechanism
while the arm continues to perform coarse positioning. We developed a new
repetitive learning system for micro-actuator which synthesizes Variable St
ructure Control (VSC) and repetitive learning to improve tracking accuracy.
Proof shows that the tracking error sequence caused by bias force, repeata
ble runout and uncertain parameters converges to zero on an extended L-2 no
rm. Repetitive learning in frequency-domain avoids the influence from high-
frequency noises, resonance modes and, other nonrepeatable components.
