Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional model predictive control methods for biaxial permanent magnet synchronous motors suffer from a redundant cascade controller structure, leading to limited dynamic response performance and decreased contour tracking accuracy due to unbalanced loads and reference contour trajectory turning.

Innovation Solution

A nonlinear predictive position control method is developed, incorporating a value function and nonlinear disturbance observer to optimize voltage control and suppress uncertainty disturbances, using a single-axis non-cascade controller structure to enhance dynamic response and tracking accuracy.

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts and removes the redundant cascade controller structure from the biaxial motor control system. By eliminating the intermediate cascade control layer and directly implementing model predictive control on the motor outputs, the system achieves faster dynamic response without the structural complexity of traditional cascade control.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent merges the position control and speed control functions into a unified model predictive control framework. Instead of using separate cascade controllers for different control loops, the invention combines all control objectives into a single optimization problem that directly minimizes contour error while considering motor dynamics.

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the actual motor outputs (positions and velocities) are continuously measured and fed back into the model predictive control algorithm. This feedback allows the controller to real-time adjust control voltages based on actual system state, compensating for unbalanced loads and trajectory variations to maintain high contour tracking accuracy.
