Output feedback integral control of piezoelectric actuators considering hysteresis

In this paper, output feedback integral control of piezoelectric actuators is considered with respect to the hysteresis effect. The linear dynamics of the piezoelectric actuator is modeled as a linear state space system with an input nonlinearity that considers the hysteresis effect. A proof of the Lyapunov stability of the system with integral control is presented, and a method for deriving the upper bound for the regulating gain is shown. A simple example is used to illustrate the approach, and then the approach is applied for tracking a step signal with an experimental single-axis piezoelectric actuator to verify that the system is stable.     

Modeling of hysteresis in piezoelectric actuators using neural networks

For the application of neural networks to the approximation of hysteresis which is characterized of multi-valued mapping and non-smooth nonlinearities, a novel modeling technique based on a transformation of one-to-one mapping is proposed in this paper. In this method, a special hysteretic operator is introduced to describe the change tendency of the hysteresis with regard to its input. Then an expanded input space is constructed for hysteresis with the introduction of such hysteretic operator, on which the multi-valued hysteresis is decomposed into a one-to-one mapping. Thus, neural networks model for hysteresis is derived, avoiding the calculation of the gradient of hysteresis. Subsequently, for approximation of rate-dependent hysteresis in piezoelectric actuators which is caused by the dynamic voltage excitations, a hybrid model, i.e. the dynamic extension of the proposed neural hysteresis submodel is developed. In the model, a linear dynamic block is introduced in series with the proposed neural model to allow for rate-dependent dynamics of the piezoelectric actuator simultaneously. Also the corresponding optimization algorithm by use of the modified Levenberg–Marquarqt (MLM) method is given. Finally, the experimental validation results of applying both the proposed neural hysteresis model and hybrid model to a piezoelectric actuator are presented.

Controller design for high-frequency cutting using a piezo-driven microstage

Controller design consists of a feedforward and a feedback controller to support a microstage with flexure hinge structure driven by piezoelectric ceramic actuator for high-frequency nanoscale cutting is developed in this article. The feedforward controller is designed based on a hysteresis dynamic model in order to reduce the nonlinear hysteresis effect of piezoelectric actuator. The position feedback controller is designed based upon an exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) method embedded in an internal model control (IMC) structure constructing a run-to-run IMC (RtR-IMC) control scheme in order to deal with system bias or modeling inaccuracy. Also, disturbance due to temperature rise will influence actuator's performance, hence an additional compensator is included in the IMC structure. Surfaces dimple micro-machining utilizes piezoelectric-driven microstage for high-speed cutting is selected as an example to investigate system performance. The developed control algorithm is implemented on a DSP-based system to provide 1 kHz operating speed. In experiment, the proposed feedforward and feedback controller is verified to be able to overcome those negative factors efficiently and preserve good positioning accuracy.     

Observer-based sliding mode control with adaptive perturbation estimation for micropositioning actuators

Control of piezoelectric actuators is under the effects of hysteresis that could affect actuators micropositioning accuracy. In this paper a modified Prandtl-Ishlinskii (PI) operator and its inverse is utilized for both identification and real time compensation of the hysteresis effect. As a result, the actuator dynamic model would be transformed to the second order linear dynamic model. Considering the parametric uncertainties, PI estimation error and probably unmodeled dynamics, a variable structure controller coupled with adaptive perturbation estimation is proposed for trajectory tracking of the piezoelectric position. Considering the very noisy output of the actuator, a high-gain observer would estimate full states from the only measurable position trajectory. The stability of the controller in the presence of the estimated state is demonstrated with the Lyapunov criterion. Comparing to the widely used proportional-integral controller, the experimental results depicts that the proposed approach is greatly achieved in precisely tracking of multiple frequency trajectories.     

Ultra-precise tracking control of piezoelectric actuators via a fuzzy hysteresis model

In this paper, a novel Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy system based model is proposed for hysteresis in piezoelectric actuators. The antecedent and consequent structures of the fuzzy hysteresis model (FHM) can be, respectively, identified on-line through uniform partition approach and recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm. With respect to controller design, the inverse of FHM is used to develop a feedforward controller to cancel out the hysteresis effect. Then a hybrid controller is designed for high-performance tracking. It combines the feedforward controller with a proportional integral differential (PID) controller favourable for stabilization and disturbance compensation. To achieve nanometer-scale tracking precision, the enhanced adaptive hybrid controller is further developed. It uses real-time input and output data to update FHM, thus changing the feedforward controller to suit the on-site hysteresis character of the piezoelectric actuator. Finally, as to 3 cases of 50 Hz sinusoidal, multiple frequency sinusoidal and 50 Hz triangular trajectories tracking, experimental results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed controllers. Especially, being only 0.35% of the maximum desired displacement, the maximum error of 50 Hz sinusoidal tracking is greatly reduced to 5.8 nm, which clearly shows the ultra-precise nanometer-scale tracking performance of the developed adaptive hybrid controller.     

Generalized preisach model for hysteresis nonlinearity of piezoceramic actuators

This paper presents a new approach for modeling the hysteresis nonlinearity of a piezoceramic actuator using a modified generalized Preisach model, and the use of this model in a linearizing control scheme. The developed generalized Preisach model relaxes the congruency requirement on the hysteresis loops of a piezoceramic actuator, which must be satisfied when using the classical Preisach model. The congruency property is experimentally proved to not hold when running the actuator on a minor hysteresis loop. A numerical expression of the model is derived in terms of first- and second-order reversal curve experimental datasets. Output prediction using this model is performed on both an exponentially decayed sinusoidal input signal and an arbitrary input signal, and the results show that the model can accurately reproduce the hysteresis response with an error of less than 2.7%. A tracking control system for a piezoceramic actuator is also developed by combining a PID feedback controller with a hysteresis linearizing scheme in a feed-forward loop. The results show that this new control system can achieve 0.25 μm tracking control accuracy, which is 80 and 50% less than that obtained when using an open-loop controller and a regular feedback control system, respectively.

FPGA-based adaptive backstepping fuzzy control for a micro-positioning Scott-Russell mechanism

This paper utilizes the field programmable gate array (FPGA) and Nios II embedded processor technologies to design a controller IC for a micro-positioning Scott-Russell (SR) mechanism, which is driven by a piezoelectric actuator (PA) and its hysteresis phenomenon is described by Bouc-Wen hysteresis model. For the controller design, the adaptive backstepping fuzzy control (ABFC) method is developed to compensate the PA's hysteresis and achieve the motion tracking control. The fuzzy logic method (FLM) is utilized to find the best adaptation gain of the adaptation law and control gain of the stabilization controls. This ABFC controller method can improve the transient and asymptotic tracking performances, and make the SR mechanism keep good working performance when external disturbances is added in the control system. Finally, we successfully apply the system-on-a-programmable-chip (SoPC) technologies to develop the motion controller IC, and achieve the advantages of reduced space, high performance and low cost.     

Non-linear compensation and displacement control of the bias-rate-dependent hysteresis of a magnetostrictive actuator

Magnetostrictive actuators invariably exhibit bias-rate-dependent hysteresis, which could cause vibration and error in the micro-positioning control. We present a methodology for linearization control for the hysteresis of a magnetostrictive actuator with a wide range of input rates and biases. The hysteresis compensation is attained through application of a dynamic Bouc-Wen model and experimental measured hysteresis properties of the magnetostrictive actuator under inputs with different frequencies and biases. The effectiveness of the compensator for hysteresis is demonstrated through experimental results of the magnetostrictive actuator under inputs at different frequencies and bias levels. Based on the proposed compensator, a displacement PID controller is applied to force the output displacement of the magnetostrictive actuator to track the desired displacement accurately thereafter. The maximum absolute tracking errors is 0.052 μm. Compared to the control results without the compensator, the compensator can reduce the control error by about 85%. The results indicate that this study provides an effective method which can compensate the hysteresis of the magnetostrictive actuator under different frequencies and biases of inputs.     

Adaptive identification of hysteresis and creep in piezoelectric stack actuators

The adaptive identification of the non-linear hysteresis and creep effects in a piezoelectric actuator is proposed in this paper. Model uncertainties related to the hysteresis and creep effects, most prominently in the high frequency zone (to 100 Hz), large operating amplitude and/long operating time, can make a piezoelectric actuator-driven micro-positioning system unstable in the closed loop. Furthermore, these uncertainties may lead to inaccurate open-loop control and frequently cause harmonic distortion when a piezoelectric actuator is driven with a sinusoidal input voltage signal. In order to solve the above issues, it is important to determine an accurate non-linear dynamic model of a piezoelectric actuator. An unscented Kalman filter-based adaptive identification algorithm is presented, which accurately determines the non-linear dynamics of a piezoelectric stack type actuator such that the non-linear hysteresis and creep effects can be accurately predicted. Since hysteresis and creep are dominant in open loop, the actuator is driven in an open-loop mode in this investigation.
