Position Estimator Design for a MEMS Top-Drive Electrostatic Rotary Actuator

The capacitance and rotor angle of a MEMS top-drive electrostatic rotary actuator do not have a linear relationship due to the non-ignorable fringe effect and low aspect ratio of the electrodes. Therefore, the position estimation is not as straightforward as that for a comb-drive linear actuator or...
