| Abstract |
Conventional magnetic levitation systems could show unsatisfactory performance under air-gap disturbance due to rail irregularities. In this paper, we propose a feedback control system with discrete Kalman filter for air-gap disturbance attenuation. It is shown that excellent system performance can be obtained with the use of discrete Kalman filter, and that results from experiments agree well with those of simulations. |
