Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a single control algorithm is used for capture device movement, then the system is simple to implement, but the tracking accuracy and efficiency are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The control algorithm is segmented into multiple distinct algorithms (first control algorithm and second control algorithm), each optimized for specific tracking scenarios. The system divides the control task by selecting appropriate algorithms based on tracking parameters, thereby improving tracking accuracy without requiring a single overly complex algorithm to handle all cases
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically switches between different control algorithms based on real-time tracking parameters and determined switching time points. This dynamic adaptation allows the system to optimize tracking accuracy for varying conditions while maintaining manageable complexity through modular algorithm design
2Productivity
If control algorithms are switched frequently to adapt to tracking parameters, then the tracking efficiency improves, but the system stability deteriorates due to vibrations and step-out states
Solution Approach 1:
The system determines switching time points in advance based on tracking parameters before actual algorithm switching occurs. This preliminary determination allows for smooth transitions between control algorithms, preventing abrupt changes that would cause vibrations and step-out states while maintaining tracking efficiency
Solution Approach 2:
The system prepares for potential instability by carefully managing the transition between control algorithms through predetermined switching time points. This approach cushions against the harmful effects of frequent switching by ensuring transitions occur at optimal moments, thereby maintaining system stability while achieving efficient tracking
3Loss of time
If the capture device accelerates quickly to reach target speed, then the tracking response time improves, but the movement precision decreases due to vibrations
Solution Approach 1:
The control algorithm applies periodic acceleration and deceleration phases with different rates, creating a structured motion pattern that reduces vibrations. By alternating between acceleration phases (for quick response) and controlled deceleration phases (for precision), the system achieves both fast tracking response and high movement precision
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes acceleration and deceleration parameters dynamically based on tracking requirements and determined time points. By adjusting these parameters to optimize both speed and precision, the system reduces vibrations during movement while maintaining fast response time for tracking
