Fuzzy inference system enabled neural network feedforward compensation for position leap control of DC servo motor.

To improve dynamic performance and steady-state accuracy of position leap control of the direct current (DC) servo motor, a fuzzy inference system (FIS) enabled artificial neural network (ANN) feedforward compensation control method is proposed in this study. In the method, a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller is used to generate the baseline control law. Then, an ANN identifier is constructed to online learn the reverse model of the DC servo motor system. Meanwhile, the learned parameters are passed in real-time to an ANN compensator to provide feedforward compensation control law accurately. Next, according to system tracking error and network modeling error, an FIS decider consisting of an FI basic module and an FI finetuning module is developed to adjust the compensation quantity and prevent uncertain disturbance from undertrained ANN adaptively. Finally, the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed method are verified by the tracking experiments of step and square signals on the DC servo motor testbed. Experimental results show that the proposed FIS-enabled ANN feedforward compensation control method achieves lower overshoot, faster adjustment, and higher precision than other comparative control methods.
