A modified Prandtl-Ishlinskii hysteresis model for modeling and compensating asymmetric hysteresis of piezo-actuated flexure-based systems

Abstract

Piezo-actuated flexure-based systems are widely used in applications with high accuracy requirements, but the intrinsic hysteresis has a detrimental effect on the performance which should be compensated. Conventional models were presented to model this undesired effect using additional dead-zone operators. This paper presents a new approach using two sets of operators with a distributed compensator to model and compensate for the asymmetric system hysteresis based on inversion calculation with a simplified digitized representation. The experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed model in modeling and compensating the asymmetric system hysteresis.
