Abstract:A mass measurement system with a relay feedback of velocity has been developed to achieve measurement without gravity. In this system, mass is estimated from the periods of oscillation in the relay-feedback system. Originally, the velocity of the object was solely fed back, which caused the orbit of the object to drift easily. A restoring force compensation by a spring was introduced to avoid such drift. However, a slight drift still occurs in spite of the restoring force element. A new estimation formula has … Show more
