Book Adaptive Sliding Mode Control with Application to a MEMS Vibratory Gyroscope

Download or read book Adaptive Sliding Mode Control with Application to a MEMS Vibratory Gyroscope written by Juntao Fei and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Gyroscopes are commonly used sensors for measuring angular velocity in many areas of applications such as navigation, homing, and control stabilization. Vibratory gyroscopes are the devices that transfer energy from one axis to the other through Coriolis forces. Fabrication imperfections result in some cross stiffness and cross damping effects that may hinder the measurement of angular velocity of MEMS gyroscope. Other noise sources such as thermal, mechanical noise also affect the performance. The angular velocity measurement and minimization of the cross coupling between two axes are challenging problems in the control of vibrating gyroscopes. This dissertation develops adaptive sliding mode control strategies for a MEMS z-axis gyroscope. The proposed adaptive sliding mode controllers for MEMS z-axis gyroscope make real-time estimates of the angular velocity as well as all unknown gyroscope parameters including coupling stiffness and damping parameters. Therefore, fabrication imperfection and time varying noise and disturbance can be compensated for. These estimates are updated using the tracking error between the reference model trajectory and mass' real trajectory. The reference model trajectory is designed to satisfy the persistence of excitation condition to enable parameter estimates to converge to their true values. The indirect adaptive sliding mode controller and direct adaptive sliding mode controller with proportional and integral sliding surface are proposed for MEMS gyroscope. In the presence of unmeasured velocity states, an adaptive sliding mode controller with a sliding mode observer that can reconstruct the unmeasured states is developed to estimate the angular velocity and the linear damping and stiffness coefficients of the gyroscope in real time despite parameter variations and external disturbance. Moreover, the adaptive sliding mode control for two axes angular sensor is extended to triaxial angular sensor and a novel concept for an adaptively controlled triaxial angular velocity sensor device that is able to detect rotation in the three orthogonal axes, using a single vibrating mass is proposed. The numerical simulations of MEMS gyroscope show the effectiveness of all the proposed adaptive sliding mode control schemes. It is shown that the proposed adaptive sliding mode control schemes offer several advantages such as consistent estimates of gyroscope parameters including angular velocity and large robustness to parameter variations and disturbance."--Abstract.

Book Fundamentals of Spacecraft Attitude Determination and Control

Download or read book Fundamentals of Spacecraft Attitude Determination and Control written by F. Landis Markley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-05-31 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores topics that are central to the field of spacecraft attitude determination and control. The authors provide rigorous theoretical derivations of significant algorithms accompanied by a generous amount of qualitative discussions of the subject matter. The book documents the development of the important concepts and methods in a manner accessible to practicing engineers, graduate-level engineering students and applied mathematicians. It includes detailed examples from actual mission designs to help ease the transition from theory to practice and also provides prototype algorithms that are readily available on the author’s website. Subject matter includes both theoretical derivations and practical implementation of spacecraft attitude determination and control systems. It provides detailed derivations for attitude kinematics and dynamics and provides detailed description of the most widely used attitude parameterization, the quaternion. This title also provides a thorough treatise of attitude dynamics including Jacobian elliptical functions. It is the first known book to provide detailed derivations and explanations of state attitude determination and gives readers real-world examples from actual working spacecraft missions. The subject matter is chosen to fill the void of existing textbooks and treatises, especially in state and dynamics attitude determination. MATLAB code of all examples will be provided through an external website.

Book A Tightly Coupled INS GPS Integration Using a MEMS IMU

Download or read book A Tightly Coupled INS GPS Integration Using a MEMS IMU written by Jonathan M. Neu and published by . This book was released on 2004-09-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology holds great promise for future navigation systems because of the reduced size and cost of MEMS inertial sensors relative to conventional devices. Current MEMS devices are much less accurate than standard inertial sensors, but they can still be useful. In this thesis, data was recorded from an inexpensive MEMS inertial measurement unit and integrated with GPS measurements using a tightly-coupled Kalman filter. The overall goal of this research is to investigate the usefulness of MEMS sensors for a small, real-time, low-cost INS/GPS integration. A golf cart was used to collect dynamic data, along with a commercial INS/GPS system to provide reference data. This data was then post-processed, and the filter's performance in the position, velocity, and attitude outputs were evaluated by comparing them to the reference system. The important system features of system alignment, bias feedback, and INS resets are described, and the filter's performance is analyzed using its estimate and covariance outputs and comparing them to the true error. Filter residuals are also shown and discussed. The final results show that, with adequate processing available, the INS/GPS filter using the MEMS instruments provides good position, velocity, and attitude results over a period of up to 15 minutes, as long as the data is at least somewhat dynamic. Without vehicle motion, the vehicle yaw state tends to wander excessively, due to the bias and noise of the MEMS gyroscopes. Over a long static period, the filter's position outputs would most likely diverge and become unstable. Recommendations are made to combat this problem, among them to conduct more characterization of the MEMS sensors, and to add GPS velocity measurements as an input to the filter.
