In this paper, we present a magnetic levitation system which has not a gap sensor with sensor-less realization and stabilizing controller design. For measuring gap between magnet and levitated object we propose a gap sensorless method and adop two-degree-of-freedom controller for robust-ness and performence of the magnetic levitation system. From time responeses we confirm that the proposed sensorless method which can be applied to magnetic levitation system. Also the designed stabilizing controller has good disturbance rejection and reference tracking performance.

Magnetic levitation system with the advantages of non-contact, no friction and no wear can satisfy the requirement of high precision and high speed positioning. In this paper, magnetic levitation positioning stage which mainly consists of planar coil and HALBACH permanent magnet array and its control and driving system are designed. Magnetic levitation system is a highly nonlinear and strongly coupled complex system and its control performance can be influenced by the uncertainty and external disturbance. So exact feedback linearization method is used to realize exact linearization and decoupling, and a strategy of sliding mode control based on disturbance observer is proposed to compensate the uncertainty and external disturbance. Detailed proofs of observer's convergence property and system stability are derived. Both the simulation and experiment results verify the effectiveness of sliding mode control algorithm based on disturbance observer.

본 논문에서는 최적화 기법과 퍼지 PID제어기를 이용한 자기부상시스템의 부상제어기를 제안한다. 흡인식 자기부상시스템은 일반적으로 비선형 특성을 포함하는 불안정한 시스템이기 때문에 일반적인 선형 제어기를 적용할 경우 우수한 성능을 얻기에는 어려운 점이 있다. 본 논문에서 제안된 제어기는 고정파라미터를 갖는 퍼지 PID제어기를 이용하였으며, 퍼지 PID 제어기 파라미터들은 유전자 알고리즘을 이용하여 최적화를 수행하였으며 유전알고리즘의 목적함수로는 일반적으로 사용되는 성능지수 함수를 사용하였다. 제안된 퍼지 PID 제어기를 적용한 자기부상시스템의 성능을 평가하기 위하여 Matlab을 이용하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 고전적 PID제어기와 성능을 비교 분석하였다. 제안된 제어기를 적용한 자기부상시스템의 성능이 고전 PID제어기에 비하여 더 우수한 성능을 보임을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 검증하였다.

A magnetic levitation control system is inherently nonlinear and very unstable. Thus there should be a stabilizing compensator network and a negative feedback path using noncontact photoresistor or ultrasonic sensors for the levitation operation. Since the photo sensor plays a key role in the system, the steady-state error and transient performance of the overall system depend on the characteristics of the sensors. But the sensor itself also suffers from nonlinearity, and the magnitude of sensor input heavily depends on environmental conditions. To improve the output performance, we added a linearizing circuit for the sensor characteristics and a disturbance cancelation circuit to avoid sensitive output due to extraneous interfering light.

The flexible multibody dynamic model of an EMS-type Maglev vehicle is necessary in design stage to predict its behavior, load history and levitation performance. Especially in EMS-type Maglev vehicle, the body flexibility of its bogie with electromagnets affects the levitation performance because its feedback control system is more sensitive to vibration of bogie structure. The flexible multibody dynamic model of a 1/2 Maglev vehicle under test is presented. The basic modeling procedure is almost the same as in other applications. However, the feedback control system model unique in EMS-type maglev vehicle must be included in the model. With the model proposed in this study, the dynamic behavior, load history and levitation performance are more precisely predicted. This model could realize the virtual prototyping in EMS-type Maglev vehicle area.

Control system design for attraction type Maglev system is dealt in this paper. Characteristics of levitation and guidance control is explained and a kind of active guidance controller performance is compared with passive guidance control. Also, a method of using absolute and relative information simultaneously is adopted for levitation control. All the methods studied performed very well in the experiments as well as simulation.

With the innovative development of bio, pharmaceutical, and semiconductor technologies, it is essential to demand a next-generation transfer system that minimizes dust and vibrations generated during the manufacturing process. In order to develop dust-free and non-contact transfer systems, the high temperature superconductor (HTS) bulks have been applied as a magnet for levitation. However, sintered HTS bulk magnets are limited in their applications due to their relatively low critical current density (J_c) of several kA/cm² and low mechanical properties as a ceramic material. In addition, during cooling to cryogenic temperatures repeatedly, cracks and damage may occur by thermal shock. On the other hand, the bulk magnets made by stacked HTS tapes have various advantages, such as relatively high mechanical properties by alternate stacking of the metal and ceramic layer, high magnetic levitation performance by using coated conductors with high J_c of several MA/cm², consistent superconducting properties, miniaturization, light-weight, etc. In this study, we tried to fabricate HTS tapes stacked bulk magnets with 60 mm × 60 mm area and various numbers of HTS tape stacked layers for magnetic levitation. In order to examine the levitation forces of bulk magnets stacked with HTS tapes from 1 to 16 layers, specialized force measurement apparatus was made and adapted to measure the levitation force. By increasing the number of HTS tapes stacked layers, the levitation force of bulk magnet become larger. 16 HTS tapes stacked bulk magnets show promising levitation force of about 23.5 N, 6.538 kPa at 10 mm of levitated distance from NdFeB permanent magnet.

Magnetic levitation systems using the attraction force of electromagnets have many constraints according to the variation of air gap and the nonlinearity of electromagnetic force and inductances. As a result of these constraints, the nonlinear control of a magnetic levitation system has been improved by the latest advanced processors and accurate measurement system which can overcome problems such as many constraints and nonlinearity. This paper concentrates on the modeling of a nonlinear magnetic levitation system and an application of an exponential reaching law based sliding mode controller using the exponential reaching law which is one of the most robust controllers against external unexpected disturbances or parameter fluctuations. Controllability of a magnetic levitation system using the sliding mode control algorithm and robustness against parameter fluctuations have been verified through the experimental results.
