The Fourier transform spectrometer （FTS） is a precision infrared detection instrument. It adopts Michelson interference splitting， and the moving mirror is one of the core components. The uniformity and stability of the moving mirror’s speed directly affect the quality of the subsequent interferogram， so it is necessary to carry out high-precision motion control of the moving mirror. For some FTS with moving mirror in low-speed motion， the traditional M-method can no longer meet the requirements of speed measurement accuracy. In addition， when the moving mirror moves at a low speed， the speed stability is more easily affected by external mechanical disturbance. Based on the stability requirement of the low-speed moving mirror， this paper studies the motion control of the moving mirror based on the T-method measuring speed. It proposes a high-precision algorithm to obtain the measured and expected value of the velocity. By establishing the mathematical model and dynamic equation of the controlled object， the speed feedforward input is obtained， and then the compound speed controller based on the feedforward control is designed. The control algorithm is implemented by the FPGA hardware platform and applied to the FTS. The experimental results show that the peak-to-peak velocity error is 0.0182， and the root mean square （RMS） velocity error is 0.0027. To test the anti-interference capability of the moving mirror speed control system， the sinusoidal excitation force of 5 mg， 7.5 mg， and 10 mg is applied in the moving mirror motion direction on the FTS platform. Under each given magnitude， the scanning of each frequency point in 2~200 Hz is carried out. The experimental results show that the peak-to-peak velocity error and the RMS velocity error are proportional to the excitation magnitude. Under the 5 mg excitation， the maximum peak-to-peak velocity error is 0.0724， and the maximum RMS velocity error is 0.0225. From a comprehensive analysis of spectrum stability and the sampling interval error of the infrared focal plane detector， the moving mirror velocity uniformity at 5 mg can meet both requirements. This enables the FTS to possess certain anti-interference capability even when applied in micro-vibration environments. This design provides a technical means for realizing the speed control of the moving mirror with low speed and high stability. Also， it makes the FTS have wider applications.
