Abstract:
A positioning apparatus according to the present invention includes: a tabletop having a plane; a plurality of actuators configured to be driven in a direction perpendicular to the plane to move the tabletop; and a control unit configured to measure a frequency response of the tabletop and, when a peak is detected at the resonance frequency of elastic vibration of the tabletop, adjust the thrust distribution ratio for the plurality of actuators to reduce the peak.
