Abstract
An apparatus for use with a signal generator and a motor controller includes a velocity compensator, an adjustor, and a velocity regulator. The signal generator provides a reference velocity signal, and the motor controller receives an output signal and uses the output signal to control a torque input signal applied to the motor. The velocity compensator is operable to receive the reference velocity signal, determine a derivative of the reference velocity signal, and generate a velocity compensation signal based on the derivative. The adjustor is operable to adjust the reference velocity signal as a function of the velocity compensation signal. The velocity regulator is operable to compare the adjusted reference velocity signal to a feedback velocity signal and generate the output signal received by the motor controller for adjusting the torque input signal based on the comparison.
