Description
Summary:The hybrid maglev train exhibits advantages such as a large suspension gap, high load-to-weight ratio, and low suspension energy consumption. However, challenges, including unmodeled uncertainties and multi-point coupling interference in the suspension system, may degrade control performance. To enhance the global anti-interference capability of the multi-point hybrid suspension system, an adaptive linear active disturbance rejection cooperative control (ALADRCC) method is proposed. First, dynamic models of single-point and multi-point hybrid suspension systems are established, and coupling relationships among multiple suspension points are analyzed. Second, an adaptive linear extended state observer (ALESO) is designed to improve dynamic response performance and noise suppression capability. Subsequently, a coupling cooperative compensator (CCC) is designed and integrated into the linear error feedback control law of adaptive linear active disturbance rejection control (ALADRC), enabling cross-coupling compensation between the suspension gap and its variation rate to enhance multi-point synchronization. Then, the simulation models are constructed on MATLAB/Simulink to validate the effectiveness of ALESO and CCC. Finally, a multi-point hybrid suspension experimental platform is built. Comparative experiments with PID and conventional LADRC demonstrate that the proposed ALADRC achieves faster response speed and effective system noise suppression. Additional comparisons with PID and ALADRC confirm that ALADRCC significantly reduces synchronization errors between adjacent suspension points, exhibiting superior global anti-interference performance.
