Abstract: Set-point tracking servo systems encounter the problem of the trade-off between the swiftness and smoothness in tracking task. To deal with this problem, the proximate time-optimal servomechanism based on transition process (PTSTP) is proposed in this paper. The PTSTP control scheme incorporates a transition process (TP) into the framework of proximate time-optimal servomechanism (PTOS) to eliminate the conservatism of the original PTOS without the controller changing. The target position signal amplitude and the ultimate ability of actuator are utilized to design the time-optimal TP to make the jumping target position signal turns to a smooth signal, which can significantly reduce system overshoot. Therefore, the system swiftness and smoothness performance are guaranteed by PTSTP. Then, the stability of the proposed method is analyzed theoretically. Finally, the experimental results show that the controlled system is able to track the target position signal with different amplitude fast and smoothly in an electro-optical set-point tracking servo system.
