Abstract
This paper develops a tip-tilt motion controller of fast steering mirror (FSM) in the Giant Magellan telescope (GMT). A mathematical model of tip-tilt motion system of FSM is derived, and then based on this model, stability analysis is carried out. A heuristic adaptive controller is designed for the tip-tilt motion control with modeling error. The heuristic controller consists of two different adaptations such as initial adaptive control and adaptation at steady state errors. Through numerical simulations, the validity of the controller is illustrated. After that this paper addresses several practical issues like disturbance from wind, actuator saturation and resonance frequency from mechanical structure in implementing the controller to the actual system.
