Capacitive force sensor is susceptible to ambient temperature when operating.In order to reduce the influence of temperature
temperature compensation of the sensor is carried out by algorithm model based on particle swarm optimization least squares support vector machine(PSO-LSSVM).In different temperature environments
two-dimensional calibration experiments are carried out on the capacitive force sensor
the LM35 temperature sensor is used to obtain the experimental environmental temperature data
and the temperature compensa
tion model is established
and the model uses particle swarm optimization(PSO) algorithm to continuously optimize the selection of regularization parameter
γ
and kernel function parameter

in least squares support vector machine(LSSVM) until the expected fitness function and number of iterations are reached.Comparing the data before and after the temperature compensation experiment
the zero temperature coefficient of the capacitive force sensor is increased from 1.393×10

/℃.The relative value of the additional error of temperature is increased from 65.094% to 0.440%.The precision and reliability of capacitive force sensors are improved by the PSO-LSSVM algorithm model.
