Abstract
A nonlinear adaptive backstepping control method was proposed to address the system parameter uncertainty problem in the position control process of an electro-hydraulic servo closed-pump control system. This control strategy fully considers the parameter uncertainty of the nonlinear system and establishes the adaptive rate of the uncertain parameter to adjust the parameter disturbance online in real time, thereby improving the accuracy and robustness of the control system. A pump control system experiment platform was used to verify the feasibility of the controller. The experimental results showed that the proposed control strategy provided a good control effect. The pump control system can be controlled with high precision, with a steady-state control accuracy of ±0.02 mm, which serves as a good foundation for the engineering application and promotion of the pump control system.
