Abstract:

The classical and recent feedback solutions for signal shapers are reviewed and critically analyzed in this paper. Based on this assessment, a new effective feedback control architecture is proposed, suitable for manipulation of weakly damped flexible structures. More specifically, we propose to include the inverse of a signal shaper's dynamics in the feedback path, and we justify this architecture by analysis of important feedback loop channels, namely the feedback responses from input disturbance to output and from reference to output. Both the classical ZV shaper with one lumped delay, and more recent shapers with distributed delays are considered and analyzed. The most appreciated features of suitable distributed-delay shapers are retarded characteristics-the closed-loop spectrum does not exhibit high-frequency roots close to the imaginary axis (in contrast to ZV shapers)-and at the same time reduced sensitivity of the closed loop interconnection to output disturbances. Feedback performance is demonstrated by two laboratory experiments.
