Abstract
Precision motion simulators (controlled platforms) that use inertial angular rate sensors based on various principles (fiber optic, laser, floated, and other gyros) both for a single-mode simulator operating on the self-testing principle and for a wide range simulator operating in the low speed and high speed modes and equipped (to extend its functional capabilities) with triads of quartz pendulous accelerometers are considered. The problem is in designing digital control systems for such motion simulators that ensure highly accurate stabilization of the prescribed motions of the controlled platform. A solution of this problem is found that allows one to design digital control algorithms for the use with various angular rate sensors. The solutions are analyzed in the time and frequency domains, and the high quality of control is confirmed.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
