Summary:Rate-dependent hysteresis seriously deteriorates the positioning accuracy of the piezoelectric actuators, especially when tracking high-frequency signals. As a widely-used nonparametric Bayesian method, the Gaussian process (GP) has proven its effectiveness in nonlinear hysteresis modeling. In this paper, the dimension of the input to the GP model is extended to consider more dynamic features of the tracking signal so as to improve the rate-dependent hysteresis modeling accuracy. In contrast with the traditional training set containing only the position and speed information, the acceleration and jerk information, as well as their temporal distribution information, is also included in the input of the model. An inverse hysteresis compensator (IHC) is established in the same way, and open-loop and closed-loop controllers are developed by using the IHC. Experimental results on a PEA stage show that with the increase in the input dimension, the hysteresis modeling accuracy improves greatly and, thus, the controllers based on IHC can achieve a better tracking performance.
