The filter stopband attenuation is configured to -40dB, and the cutoff frequency is configured to 50KHz. The power amplifier amplifies the filtered sinusoidal signal into an AC sinusoidal signal with a reference voltage of 6V and a peak value of 6.48V.

[0067] In one embodiment of this implementation, Figure 8 for Figure 3 The schematic diagram of the structure of the angular displacement sensor feedback signal conditioning unit in the sensor signal conditioning module provided in the illustrated embodiment, Fig. 9 for Figure 8 The schematic diagram of the conditioning principle of the angular displacement sensor feedback signal conditioning unit provided in the illustrated embodiment. The angular displacement sensor feedback signal conditioning unit is composed of a filter and an operational amplifier. The filter is a second-order active Chebyshev filter.

[0069] The PWM duty cycle measurement unit in this implementation is used to collect the PWM signal input to the actuator 1, isolate and shape the PWM signal through a two-stage inverter, and then calculate the duty cycle using a duty cycle measurement algorithm.

[0070] The displacement measurement unit of the linear displacement sensor in this implementation is used to perform signal pickup, linear displacement calculation and digital signal processing; the signal pickup function periodically picks up the voltage signals VA and VB output by the feedback signal conditioning unit of the linear displacement sensor; in the linear displacement calculation process, the corresponding voltage values ​​of the two are calculated according to the acquired voltage signals VA and VB, and the output of the linear displacement sensor is converted into a Bit value according to the difference ratio and calculation method of the linear displacement sensor, and the corresponding relationship between the difference ratio and the result and the Bit value, and the measurement results are sorted and median filtered by the median filtering digital signal processing algorithm.

[0089] The Bode plot measurement unit of actuator 2 realizes the open-loop Bode plot test of actuator 2; the test method is:

[0090] (1) generating a command signal, wherein the command signal is composed of a DC quantity superimposed on a sinusoidal disturbance, the DC quantity is 50% of the total stroke of the linear displacement sensor, the disturbance amplitude is 5% of the total stroke of the linear displacement sensor, and the disturbance signal frequency ranges from 0.5 Hz to 20 Hz in steps of 0.5 Hz;

[0091] (2) The command signal is input to the closed-loop controller of actuator 1, and the closed-loop controller of actuator 1 tracks the sinusoidal command LA, and the result is the input signal of actuator 2.

[0092] (3) The signal measurement module monitors the sinusoidal input LA of the actuator 2 and the angle signal A output by the actuator 2, and counts the amplitude gain and phase lag corresponding to each frequency point;
