Abstract
According to one embodiment, a position control apparatus includes: a digital control module that performs position control including disturbance adaptive control with a predetermined sampling period using a control constant, in accordance with a position error; and a table that stores the control constant corresponding to one of values sin(ωT), cos(ωT), and sin(ωT/2), wherein the digital control module determines a control value of the actuator in accordance with the position error, calculates a value of one of estimated errors of sin(ωT), cos(ωT), and sin(ωT/2) according to an adaptive law from a signal based on the position error, multiplies the calculated estimated error by an adaptive gain in accordance with a value of the angular frequency ω, updates one of the values, reads the corresponding control constant from the table based on the updated value, and updates the control constant.
