Abstract:A laser beam raster scanning problem, where the laser beam must traverse certain trajectories on a moving platform is addressed in this paper. The raster scanning motion is periodic with respect to the platform coordinate. The periodicity depends on the feed speed of the platform. This problem is addressed by transforming the time domain system dynamics to the platform's coordinate frame. This results in a problem of designing a controller for a time varying system to track periodic trajectory. In the control … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
