description Abstract Space payloads in orbit are vulnerable to small vibrations from satellite platforms, which can degrade their performance. Traditional methods typically involve installing a passive vibration isolation system between the platform and the payload. However, such systems are usually effective only for high-frequency, large-amplitude vibrations and perform poorly in isolating low-frequency vibrations and resonances below 10 Hz. To address this limitation, this paper proposes an active vibration isolation system using a 6-degrees-of-freedom Stewart platform driven by piezoelectric actuators. First, the characteristics of the Stewart platform are analyzed and modeled, with the deformation displacement of each leg calculated through decoupling, allowing for high-precision servo control. Next, given the inherent hysteretic nonlinearity of piezoelectric ceramics, which significantly affects positioning accuracy, the hysteresis mechanism of the actuators is analyzed, and a phenomenological mathematical model based on Bouc–Wen operators is established. A Modified particle swarm optimization (MPSO) method is proposed for identifying the model’s nonlinear parameters, significantly enhancing the optimization efficiency. Finally, feedforward inverse compensation and feedback linearization methods are introduced. Experimental results verify that the designed active–passive vibration isolation system greatly improves both the positioning accuracy of the piezoelectric actuators and the active vibration isolation performance of the platform.
