Abstract
An anti-windup augmentation technique for active vibration isolation systems is considered in this paper and shown to lead to high-performance vibration isolation through simulations and experiments. First, the anti-windup construction is described and desirable properties of the augmented closed-loop system are illustrated. Then, the anti-windup technique is tested on a simulation example and finally shown to perform excellently on a commercial vibration isolation device: Newport Corporation's Elite 3TM active vibration isolation system which has been patented and is now commercialized with this architecture. Both simulation and experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the anti-windup scheme.
