Abstract
A V-shaped linear ultrasonic motor (LUSM), used as a driving element for the absolute gravimeter, generates structural vibrations when the motor starts and stops, which interfere with and influence the accurate measurement of the absolute gravimeter. In order to address this problem and provide better stability and measurement accuracy, this paper designs a fuzzy proportional integral differential (PID) controller and realizes the drive control of the motor on a field programmable gate array (FPGA) using the Verilog hardware description language (HDL). The advantages of the proposed controller are verified by comparing the simulation results with those of the traditional PID controller. First, the technical index of the LUSM as the driving element is studied through theoretical analysis based on the operation mechanism of the absolute gravimeter. Then, the relationship between the output performance and the input parameters (excitation voltage, preload, and driving frequency) of the motor in a vacuum/natural environment is experimentally investigated. Finally, an experimental system is constructed, and experiments are conducted to measure the acceleration of gravity and compare with the test results of the habitual FG-5 absolute gravimeter. The experimental results show that the output performance of the V-shaped LUSM meets the requirements of the driving element of the absolute gravimeter. The combination of the two control methods can realize the repeatable and stable operation of the system. Moreover, the motor with a mass of only 92 g can output force directly without transmission components. The complexity and the weight of the system are significantly reduced, which has certain advantages.
