Summary:This paper proposes a novel control strategy for six degrees-of-freedom active vibration isolation tables. In these systems, the most challenging issue is to suppress the external vibrations and isolate the internal interactions while still preserving the system’s robustness when facing uncertainties. A noninteracting controller is designed to tackle these problems. The resulting control system is completely decoupled in the sense that each system output is independently controlled to follow the corresponding reference signal. In this paper, the model of an active vibration isolation table is firstly derived. Conditions for system stability and decoupled performance are then discussed. The control law is formulated using the linear matrix inequality approach, which results in optimal control gains for the control objectives. With the proposed controller, complex system characteristics can be handled more efficiently such that an effective system is designed to obtain good control performance. Finally, simulations and comparison studies were conducted, and the results validate the efficiency of the proposed scheme.
