基于FPGA的諧波傳動(dòng)控制的速度估計(jì)(英文)

??? FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) devices have emerged as a new type of recon?gurable high-performance computing hardware. Despite their successful applications ina variety of areas, FPGA devices are just about to ?nd their way into the control systems. In this paper, a general velocity estimation solution for on-chip FPGA implementation is presented. Possessing the advantages of both frequency count and period count methods, the proposed solution automatically covers a wide range of velocities. It behaves as a period counter at low velocities and also behaves as a frequency　counter at high velocities. Remarkably, the division opera-　tion required by most period count methods is averted by　using an accumulator to ease the FPGA-based implementation.　The developed velocity estimation solution is experimentally compared to a classic frequency count method in terms of both velocity signal smoothness and position tracking control accuracy. Experimental results also reveal that the position control accuracy of harmonic drives is more sensitive to the velocity phase-lag than to the velocity smoothness.
