AI Technical Summary
Existing adaptive time delay compensation methods require initial values for parameter estimation, which affects the parameter estimation effect and convergence speed. Moreover, most of them are based on linear models, which cannot effectively solve the nonlinear problems of physical substructures in real-time hybrid experiments, resulting in insufficient accuracy and stability.
The compensator is designed using a nominal model and an error model. By identifying the error model parameters online, additional control variables are designed, and parameters are estimated using a Kalman filter. This overcomes the dependence on initial values, adapts to time-varying characteristics, and improves the accuracy and robustness of real-time mixed experiments.
It achieves accurate tracking of the desired displacement, reduces the sensitivity to parameter estimation methods and initial values, effectively solves the time-varying characteristics and nonlinearity of time delay in real-time hybrid experiments, and improves the accuracy and stability of the experiment.
