Nonlinear Module Control of Maglev Levitation System Based on Feedback Linearization

This study develops an electromagnet-air spring-vehicle coupled model of the actively controlled, magnetically levitated system. Based on the coupled model, the nonlinear module controller based on the feedback linearization is adopted. The experiment verification on CMS04 low speed maglev vehicle is carried out; the results show that the tracking performance and decoupling ability of proposed controller is satisfied.
