Waveform harmonic suppression technology for electromagnetic standard vibration actuators based on current feedback control.

To realize high-precision calibration of vibration sensors, the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the output waveform of a standard vibration actuator should be as small as possible, so a harmonic suppression technique based on current feedback control is presented. A low-cost, easy-to-implement feedback control loop of driving current is established in an electromagnetic standard vibration actuator (EVA), and the rationality of driving current in place of acceleration in the acceleration characteristic frequency band to achieve the feedback is analyzed. The influence of different values of the key parameters on the system is studied, and the acceleration characteristic frequency band of low-frequency vibration is effectively extended so that the THD of the output waveform is immensely alleviated. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by experiments and compared with traditional control methods, the harmonic distortion of acceleration waveform can be reduced by more than 40% without using any feedback sensors, which proves the superiority of the current feedback control method.
