Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of control of magnetic levitation vehicles, in particular to a feedback linearization control method and a feedback linearization control device for a levitation system of a magnetic levitation vehicle.

Background

The magnetic levitation vehicle is a modern high-tech rail vehicle, realizes non-contact levitation and guidance between vehicles and rails through electromagnetic force, and then utilizes the electromagnetic force generated by a linear motor to draw the vehicles to run. The magnetic suspension vehicle mainly comprises a suspension guide system, a traction power supply system and an operation control system.

The suspension system is a typical nonlinear system, and the system has no self-stability, and the stable suspension of the system can be realized only by adopting an active control method.

The traditional control method of the suspension system is to carry out linearization processing on a suspension system model at a rated working point and then design a suspension controller according to the linearization model. The method is essentially a local linearization method, and when the deviation between the actual working position of the suspension system and the rated working point is large, the deviation between the actual model of the suspension system and the linearization model is large, so that the control performance of the system is reduced, and even the divergence is not converged.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a feedback linearization control method based on acceleration.

In order to improve the control performance of the position feedback linearization control method and reduce the model error, the input of the linearization model can be compensated based on the vertical acceleration of the suspension electromagnet.

In one embodiment, step S120 is implemented as: and converting the original control quantity output by the controller into the current control quantity of the suspension electromagnet by taking the vertical acceleration as compensation input. A corresponding schematic diagram of the levitation control structure is shown in fig. 3.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the step S120 may include steps S121-S124.

Wherein, step S121 is: determining a compensation amount a based on the vertical acceleration^*。

Specifically, as shown in fig. 6, g(s) is a filter function, and the compensation amount output by the compensation unit is multiplied by the filter function g(s) to obtain a filtered compensation amount a^*Then the filtered compensation amount a is used^*And the sum of the original control quantity is used as an acceleration compensation value a_CAnd substituted into the conversion formula (6) to calculate the current control amount.

In other embodiments, the vertical acceleration obtained in step S110 may be used as a feedback input to construct an acceleration feedback linearization control method. Correspondingly, step S120 can be implemented as: and converting the original control quantity output by the controller into the current control quantity of the suspension electromagnet by taking the vertical acceleration as feedback input.

wherein i_CG is the gravitational acceleration, a is the vertical acceleration obtained as a feedback input, m is the suspended mass, c is the current control quantity_CAnd K is a system parameter, and the clearance control quantity is used as the input of the linearization model.

And replacing the current in the kinetic equation of the nonlinear suspension model with the current control quantity in the conversion formula. Then, according to the conversion formula (7) and the kinetic equation of the nonlinear suspension model, the linearized differential equation can be obtained as:

c＝c_C (8)

the corresponding transfer function is:

it can be seen from the transfer function (9) that after the acceleration feedback is linearized, the linearized system is changed from an open-loop unstable system to an open-loop stable system, and the control difficulty is greatly reduced.

In a more preferred embodiment, the input to the acceleration feedback linearization model of FIG. 7 can also be compensated based on the levitation gap of the levitation electromagnet. Specifically, as shown in fig. 8, in this embodiment, the compensation unit compensates the original control amount output by the controller based on the levitation gap.

Then, in this embodiment, step S110 further includes: and acquiring a suspension gap c of the suspension electromagnet.

The detected levitation gap value can be acquired by a gap sensor of the levitation electromagnet.

Further, the specific compensation process may include steps S910 to S920 as shown in the flowchart of fig. 9.

Step S910 is: and determining a compensation amount based on the acquired suspension clearance.

The compensation quantity can be a difference value between an original control quantity output by the controller and the acquired suspension clearance, and can be positive or negative. The compensation unit shown in fig. 8 takes the difference between the original clearance control amount output by the controller and the acquired levitation clearance as the compensation amount c^*。

Step S920 is: and taking the sum of the original control quantity and the compensation quantity as a clearance compensation value.

Correspondingly, step S910 may further use a difference between the determined clearance compensation value and the levitation clearance as the compensation amount. Specifically, as shown in the compensation unit in fig. 10, the compensation unit takes the difference between the clearance compensation value and the levitation clearance as the compensation amount c^*。

Further, the backlash compensation value is used as the backlash control quantity c_CThe corresponding current control amount is calculated by substituting into the conversion formula (7).

In the acceleration feedback linearization control method shown in fig. 8 or 10, on one hand, an open loop stabilization system is established, on the other hand, an error compensation link is designed, global linearization of a controlled object is realized, the control structure is simple, parameters are easily adjusted, portability is strong, the method is suitable for different suspension working points, and the method has a very high engineering application value.

In a more preferred embodiment, on the basis of the acceleration feedback linearization suspension structure shown in fig. 8 or fig. 10, the compensation amount output by the compensation unit can be filtered to prevent noise interference, thereby further improving the control performance of the system. Specifically, as shown in fig. 11, g(s) is a filter function, and the compensation amount output by the compensation unit is multiplied by the filter function g(s) to obtain a filtered compensation amount c^*Then the filtered compensation quantity c is used^*And the sum of the original control quantity is used as a clearance compensation value c_CAnd substituted into the conversion formula (7) to calculate the current control amount.

Furthermore, on the basis of the position feedback linearization control method and the acceleration feedback linearization control method, a double-feedback linearization suspension control method can be formed. A specific dual-feedback linearized levitation control structure can be shown in fig. 12, where the control unit includes a controller 1 and a controller 2, and outputs corresponding original control quantities based on a levitation gap design value and an actual levitation performance parameter of the levitation electromagnet, respectively. The original control amount output by the controller 1 is a gap control amount, and the original control amount output by the controller 2 is an acceleration control amount. The conversion formula is as follows:

i_C ²＝(g-a_C)*mc_C ²/K (10)

or

i_C ²＝(g-a-a_C)*m(c+c_C)²/K (11)

Wherein i_CFor the current control quantity, g is the gravitational acceleration, a is the vertical acceleration obtained, a_CIs the acceleration control quantity output by the controller 2, m is the levitation mass, c is the acquired levitation gap, c_CAnd K is a system parameter, wherein the gap control quantity output by the controller 1 and the acceleration control quantity output by the controller 2 are respectively used as input, and the suspension gap of the suspension electromagnet is used as output to form a bilinear model.

In the double-feedback linearized levitation control structure, the conversion formula (10) has no feedback input, and the current control amount is determined based only on the gap control amount output by the controller 1 and the acceleration control amount output by the controller 2; the conversion formula (11) converts the gap control amount output by the controller 1 and the acceleration control amount output by the controller 2 into the current control amount with the levitation gap and the vertical acceleration as feedback inputs, and belongs to the dual feedback control.

Then, corresponding to the dual feedback linearized levitation control structure, step S110 further includes: acquiring a suspension gap of the suspension electromagnet; step S120 can be embodied as: and converting the original control quantity output by the controller 1 and the controller 2 into the current control quantity of the suspension electromagnet by using the acquired vertical acceleration and the suspension gap as feedback input and adopting a conversion formula (10) or (11).

In a more preferred embodiment, the inputs of the dual feedback linearization model of FIG. 12 can also be separately compensated based on the obtained levitation gap and vertical acceleration. Specifically, as shown in fig. 13, in this embodiment, the compensation unit compensates the original control amount output by the controller 1 based on the levitation gap and compensates the original control amount output by the controller 2 based on the vertical acceleration.

The specific compensation process can be shown in the flow chart of fig. 14, and includes steps S141-S144.

Wherein, step S141 is: a first compensation amount is determined based on the acquired levitation gap.

Step S142 is: a second compensation amount is determined based on the obtained vertical acceleration.

The first compensation amount may be a difference between an original control amount output by the controller 1 and the acquired suspension clearance, the second compensation amount may be a difference between an original control amount output by the controller 2 and the acquired vertical acceleration, and the first compensation amount and the second compensation amount may be positive or negative. The compensation means shown in fig. 13 is configured to set the difference between the original clearance control amount output from the first controller and the acquired levitation clearance as the first compensation amount c^*Taking the difference between the original clearance control quantity output by the second controller and the acquired vertical acceleration as a second compensation quantity a^*。

Step S143 is: and taking the sum of the original control quantity output by the first controller and the first compensation quantity as a clearance compensation value.

Correspondingly, step S141 may further use a difference between the determined clearance compensation value and the levitation clearance as the first compensation amount. The compensation means shown in FIG. 15 uses the difference between the determined clearance compensation value and the levitation clearance as the first compensation amount c^*。

Step S144 is: and taking the sum of the original control quantity output by the second controller and the second compensation quantity as an acceleration compensation value.

Correspondingly, in step S142, the difference between the determined acceleration compensation value and the acquired vertical acceleration may be used as the second compensation amount. The compensation unit shown in fig. 15 is toThe difference value between the determined acceleration compensation value and the vertical acceleration is used as a second compensation quantity a^*。

Further, after the backlash compensation value and the acceleration compensation value are determined, the backlash compensation value and the acceleration compensation value may be respectively used as the backlash control amount c_CAnd an acceleration control amount a_CSubstituting into a conversion formula (10) or (11) for calculating the current control amount.

In a more preferred embodiment, on the basis of the double-feedback linearization suspension structure of the unit to be compensated, the compensation quantity output by the compensation unit can be filtered to prevent noise interference, thereby further improving the control performance of the system. Specifically, as shown in fig. 16, the compensation amount output by the compensation unit is multiplied by a filter function to obtain a first compensation amount or a second compensation amount after filtering, and then the sum of the first compensation amount or the second compensation amount after filtering and the corresponding original control amount is respectively used as a clearance compensation value or an acceleration compensation value and is substituted into the conversion formula (10) or (11) to calculate the current control amount.
