Abstract

With the demand for energy efficiency in electro-hydraulic servo system (EHSS) increasing, the separate meter in and separate meter out (SMISMO) control system draws massive attention. In this paper, the SMISMO control system was decoupled completely into two subsystems by the proposed indirect adaptive robust dynamic surface control (IARDSC) method. Besides, a fast parameter estimation scheme was proposed to adapt to the parameter change for a better estimation performance. Also, a supply pressure controller with a disturbance observer and a supply flow rate controller with a grey model predictor were investigated and employed to save the power consumption. Finally, experimental results showed that the proposed IARDSC could achieve a good trajectory tracking performance with the fast parameter estimation. Meanwhile, the two energy saving techniques were validated.
