Abstract

Microelectromechanical (MEMS) gyroscopes are small devices used in different industries such as automotive and robotics systems due to their small size and low costs. The MEMS gyroscopes constantly encounter external disturbances, which introduce some mechanical and electromechanical nonlinearity in those systems. In this paper, the Koopman theory is applied to the nonlinear dynamic model of MEMS gyroscope to the linear dynamics model. Dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) is used to obtain eigenfunctions using Koopman’s theory to linearize the system. Then, a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller is used to control the MEMS gyroscope. The simulation results verify the performance of the proposed controller in terms of high-tracking performance.
