D. C. servo position control parameter estimation

Abstract EN

Open-loop and closed-loop position control systems are obtained using dc motor.

The open-loop uses an estimation of controller parameters to perform the position control where the closed loop position control systems uses a cascade controller to maintain the desired position.

Controllers are designed using Matlab / Simulink simulation package.

The objective is to design a position controller which will be able to drive the motor at a specified constant velocity which might gives the motor some constant torque.

The results obtained from the open-loop position control system parameters estimation shows better performance specification in the control tasks, such as rise time and overshoot.

The cascade closed-loop position control system shows an improvement in performance when use the values of estimated parameters.
