ACTIVE VIBRATION CONTROL DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS

摘要

Improved active vibration control (AVC) devices, systems, and related methods are provided herein. An AVC device includes a controller adapted to receive real-time aircraft information and adjust at least one control parameter as a function of the real-time aircraft information is provided. An AVC device is adapted to detect changes in real-time aircraft information, as the aircraft moves from a steady state to transient performance, low and high air speeds, or vice versa. An AVC system (e.g., AVCS) includes one or more sensors, one or more actuators, and a controller adapted to receive real-time aircraft information and adjust at least one control parameter. In some aspects, a method of controlling vibration within an aircraft includes receiving vibration information from at least one sensor, receiving real-time aircraft information from an avionics system, adjusting at least one control parameter used in a control algorithm, and generating a force command.

1. An active vibration control (AVC) device for use in aircraft, the AVC device comprising:
a controller comprising:
a first signaling interface for receiving real-time aircraft information communicated directly from an avionics system;a force command generating module configured to process the real-time aircraft information, adjust at least one control parameter as a function of the real-time aircraft information, and generate a force command using the adjusted control parameter; anda second signaling interface for outputting the electronic force command to one or more actuators.
