Data‐driven adaptive control design for active stabilization of stratospheric airship imaging platform: A characteristic model approach

Abstract

AbstractIn response to the problem of disturbance in the imaging equipment of stratospheric airships, this study designs a vibration isolation and stability system for carrying imaging equipment. The system mainly consists of microprocessor, gimbal, voice coil motor (VCM) and rubber ring. By using adaptive control law based on characteristic model to control the double closed control loop of the motor composed of position loop and speed loop, the camera deflection caused by disturbance is effectively eliminated. Furthermore, in vertical vibration suppression, the adaptive control law based on the characteristic model is also applied to the double closed control loop of the voice coil motor, which removes most of the vertical vibration and realizes active vibration isolation. The passive isolation of the system is completed by rubber rings. The experimental results show that the vibration isolation and stabilization system have good performance in complex disturbance environments, effectively stabilizing the imaging equipment.
