Abstract

The objective of this research is to improve the response performance of an electro-mechanical converter (EMC), a new design of EMC provided with the bobbin of triple coils is proposed in this study. A mathematic model and a solution of searching time optimum using an improved Bacterial Foraging Algorithm (BFA) are developed, and a dual-mode controller with Bang-Bang & PI based on the proposed method is designed. Analysis and simulation results show promising effects that the response time of the triple coil EMC driven by dual-mode controller is reduced from 8.5ms to 2.5ms compared to the traditional single coil EMC, and the ringing and overshoot are below 5%. The designed control technology can realize high response performance and display good prospect of development.
