Abstract To accommodate different types of supersonic wind tunnel tests, frequent replacements of nozzle sections and test sections are required, involving multiple complex technical processes. To optimize operational procedures and improve efficiency, a control system for the wind tunnel nozzle section trolley based on the backstepping method was designed. The system uses radio frequency identification (RFID) signals for station positioning and intelligently adjusts the speed and direction of the control motor, thus driving the trolley to move back and forth automatically. Through the simulation of the motor motion control model, the system effectively reduces random disturbances in the motion system caused by load changes, achieves precise positioning of wind tunnel plugins and nozzle assemblies, enhances system operating accuracy, reduces production cycle times, and realizes a one-button positioning function for all components, playing a significant role in improving wind tunnel test efficiency and operational quality.
