Virtual Dual-Loop Feedback Control with Model-Construction Linear Extended State Observer for Free Space Optical Communication

摘要

The stable alignment and transmission of free space optical communication (FSO) is susceptible to internal dynamics and external disturbances. In this paper, a virtual dual-loop feedback control (VDFC) with model-construction linear extended state observer (MCLESO), which is applied to the fast tip-tilt mirror platform to enhance the disturbance suppression ability (DSA) for FSO. MCLESO, which is modified on a classical linear extended state observer by introducing the available model information, is shown to use the input and output signal data of the system to observe total disturbances, including internal dynamics and external disturbance. Since the position and velocity signals are both observed only with the optoelectronic target detector and MCLESO, the controllers of the dual-loop feedback control (DFC) system are employed directly. This method has a more accurate control performance after model construction, which enhances the DSA of the tip-tilt mirror control system in low and medium frequency. It is also beneficial to miniaturization and cost saving by not using velocity sensors. Both simulations and experiments validate the effectiveness of the proposed method in the tip-tilt mirror control system under the condition of disturbance.
