Current Driver Design for Electromagnetic Coil Using Adaptive Active Disturbance Rejection Control

An adaptive active disturbance rejection controller is used in the current driver design of the electromagnetic coil. Extended state observer of the 1st-order system is adopted for disturbance observation of ADRC. The supervised recursive least squares method is proposed for real-time parameters estimation, in which the excitation signal variance is used to trigger the parameter estimator. The experimental results demonstrate that ADRC combined with real-time parameter estimation simplifies the parameter tuning and improves the parameter adaptive ability.
