Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of precise motion platform control, and more particularly, to a predetermined performance control method and device for a precise motion platform. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, with the increasing demand for precise motion control in the fields of space exploration, microelectronic manufacturing, optical detection, biomedical micro-operation, etc., precise motion platforms have gradually become the core components of high-precision industrial equipment, and their application scenarios have covered nanoscale positioning, sub-micron trajectory tracking, multi-degree-of-freedom cooperative motion, and other high-difficulty tasks. To meet the stringent requirements of precise operation at the microscale, the motion platform not only needs to overcome multiple disturbances caused by the external environment and its own structure, but also must achieve millisecond-level dynamic response and micro-radian-level attitude adjustment, while maintaining sub-micron-level positioning accuracy in long-term operation. These factors may cause trajectory tracking errors, positioning overshoots, and even system instability under high-frequency response, directly restricting the application efficiency of the platform in the fields of space exploration, micro-nano manufacturing, quantum device manipulation, etc.

[0003] In the field of precise motion platform control, traditional control methods often have difficulty in simultaneously considering transient response quality and steady-state control accuracy, especially under the influence of multiple source disturbances and system uncertainties, which may easily cause problems such as excessive overshoot, slow convergence, or steady-state error fluctuations. Predetermined performance control transforms complex control objectives into explicit constraints on error evolution trajectories by predefining performance boundaries (such as convergence speed, maximum overshoot, and steady-state error range) during the design phase, providing a theoretical and quantifiable design framework for system performance. For precise motion platforms, predetermined performance control not only strictly limits the convergence process of trajectory tracking errors in micro-nano positioning, but also actively compensates for external disturbances and model uncertainties by adjusting control gains online, ensuring that the preset transient and steady-state performance is maintained under complex working conditions such as multi-axis coupled motion and high-speed start-stop.

[0004] However, the predetermined performance control still faces multiple challenges in practical applications: on the one hand, the continuous effect of complex disturbances may cause the system state to repeatedly oscillate near the predetermined performance boundary, resulting in frequent switching of the control input between the saturation region and the non-saturation region, which not only destroys the stability of the equilibrium state, but also exacerbates the mechanical wear of the actuator. On the other hand, the strict constraints of the predetermined performance control on the error convergence path may limit the system response speed: when pursuing fast convergence, aggressive adjustment of the control gain is easy to trigger the overshoot constraint, resulting in an overly conservative response process; while relaxing the constraint can improve the response speed, it may sacrifice the steady-state accuracy, forming an inherent contradiction between convergence and response speed. In addition, under the influence of model uncertainty or unmodeled dynamics, the predetermined performance boundary may not accurately match the actual system characteristics, causing deviations between the theoretically designed convergence trajectory and the actual response, further affecting the control effectiveness. Precise motion platforms not only expect the system output to meet the predetermined performance, but also hope to improve the convergence speed and positioning accuracy as much as possible. However, the above problems still lack effective solutions. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the above defects or improvement needs of the prior art, the present application provides a predetermined performance control method and device for a precise motion platform, which aims to solve the problem that existing control methods are difficult to handle the desired system output of the precise motion platform while meeting the predetermined performance, improving the convergence speed and positioning accuracy.

In the space gravitational wave detection task, in order to ensure that the space inertial sensor can be safely and reliably transferred to the scientific operation stage, a special locking and releasing mechanism must be designed to realize the locking of the test mass in the launching process and the accurate positioning and releasing in the space. The movement process of the locking and releasing mechanism in the task space mainly includes three stages: the locking stage, the capturing and positioning stage and the releasing stage, as shown in Figure 1The locking top rod of the locking unit fixes the test mass with a locking force of about 1500N during the rocket launching process. Then, the locking top rod is retracted after the satellite is put into orbit, the test mass is transferred to the plunger of the capture positioning unit for constraint, and is positioned to the center position of the electrode frame with high precision. Finally, the release pin advances, the plunger retreats, and the test mass is completely handed over to the release pin for constraint. The test mass is released by the release pin in a symmetrical manner, and the test mass is released at an extremely low residual speed, and then is captured and controlled by the electrostatic control system. However, in actual application, the locking release mechanism is faced with multiple source disturbances, for example, adhesion effect generated by contact between the test mass and the locking release mechanism, external contact force impact, end load change, friction between the moving parts and the fixed parts, etc. These disturbance factors not only affect the release precision of the locking release mechanism, but also can even cause system vibration.
