  • Control Theory
    Control theory S. Simrock DESY, Hamburg, Germany Abstract In engineering and mathematics, control theory deals with the behaviour of dynamical systems. The desired output of a system is called the reference. When one or more output variables of a system need to follow a certain ref- erence over time, a controller manipulates the inputs to a system to obtain the desired effect on the output of the system. Rapid advances in digital system technology have radically altered the control design options. It has become routinely practicable to design very complicated digital controllers and to carry out the extensive calculations required for their design. These advances in im- plementation and design capability can be obtained at low cost because of the widespread availability of inexpensive and powerful digital processing plat- forms and high-speed analog IO devices. 1 Introduction The emphasis of this tutorial on control theory is on the design of digital controls to achieve good dy- namic response and small errors while using signals that are sampled in time and quantized in amplitude. Both transform (classical control) and state-space (modern control) methods are described and applied to illustrative examples. The transform methods emphasized are the root-locus method of Evans and fre- quency response. The state-space methods developed are the technique of pole assignment augmented by an estimator (observer) and optimal quadratic-loss control. The optimal control problems use the steady-state constant gain solution. Other topics covered are system identification and non-linear control. System identification is a general term to describe mathematical tools and algorithms that build dynamical models from measured data.

    ECE4510/5510: Feedback Control Systems. 1–1 INTRODUCTION TO FEEDBACK CONTROL 1.1: What is feedback control? I Control-system engineers often face this question (or, “What is it that you do, anyway?”) when trying to explain their professional field. I Loosely speaking, control is the process of getting “something” to do what you want it to do (or “not do,” as the case may be). The “something” can be almost anything. Some obvious • examples: aircraft, spacecraft, cars, machines, robots, radars, telescopes, etc. Some less obvious examples: energy systems, the economy, • biological systems, the human body. I Control is a very common concept. e.g.,Human-machineinteraction:Drivingacar. ® Manual control. e.g.,Independentmachine:Roomtemperaturecontrol.Furnacein winter, air conditioner in summer. Both controlled (turned “on”/“off”) by thermostat. (We’ll look at this example more in Topic 1.2.) ® Automatic control (our focus in this course). DEFINITION: Control is the process of causing a system variable to conform to some desired value, called a reference value.

  • 8. Feedback Control Systems
    feedback control - 8.1 8. FEEDBACK CONTROL SYSTEMS Topics: • Transfer functions, block diagrams and simplification • Feedback controllers • Control system design Objectives: • To be able to represent a control system with block diagrams. • To be able to select controller parameters to meet design objectives. 8.1 INTRODUCTION Every engineered component has some function. A function can be described as a transformation of inputs to outputs. For example it could be an amplifier that accepts a sig- nal from a sensor and amplifies it. Or, consider a mechanical gear box with an input and output shaft. A manual transmission has an input shaft from the motor and from the shifter. When analyzing systems we will often use transfer functions that describe a sys- tem as a ratio of output to input. 8.2 TRANSFER FUNCTIONS Transfer functions are used for equations with one input and one output variable. An example of a transfer function is shown below in Figure 8.1. The general form calls for output over input on the left hand side. The right hand side is comprised of constants and the ’D’ operator. In the example ’x’ is the output, while ’F’ is the input. The general form An example output x 4 + D ----------------- = fD() --- = --------------------------------- input F D2 ++4D 16 Figure 8.1 A transfer function example feedback control - 8.2 If both sides of the example were inverted then the output would become ’F’, and the input ’x’. This ability to invert a transfer function is called reversibility. In reality many systems are not reversible. There is a direct relationship between transfer functions and differential equations.

  • Control System Design Methods
    Christiansen-Sec.19.qxd 06:08:2004 6:43 PM Page 19.1 The Electronics Engineers' Handbook, 5th Edition McGraw-Hill, Section 19, pp. 19.1-19.30, 2005. SECTION 19 CONTROL SYSTEMS Control is used to modify the behavior of a system so it behaves in a specific desirable way over time. For example, we may want the speed of a car on the highway to remain as close as possible to 60 miles per hour in spite of possible hills or adverse wind; or we may want an aircraft to follow a desired altitude, heading, and velocity profile independent of wind gusts; or we may want the temperature and pressure in a reactor vessel in a chemical process plant to be maintained at desired levels. All these are being accomplished today by control methods and the above are examples of what automatic control systems are designed to do, without human intervention. Control is used whenever quantities such as speed, altitude, temperature, or voltage must be made to behave in some desirable way over time. This section provides an introduction to control system design methods. P.A., Z.G.

  • A Condensed Guide to Automation Control System Specification, Design and Installation
    A Condensed Guide to Automation Control System Specification, Design & Installation: White Paper, Title Page A Condensed Guide to Automation Control System Specification, Design and Installation By Tom Elavsky AutomationDirect WHITE PAPER The #1 Value in Automation.™ A Condensed Guide to Automation Control System Specification, Design & Installation: White Paper, pg. 2 The following is Part 1 of a four-part series of articles on Control System Design that can act as a general guide to the specification, design and installation of automated control systems. The information and references are presented in a logical order that will take you from the skills required to recognize an operation or process suited for automating, to tips on setting up a program, to maintaining the control system. Whether you are an expert or a novice at electrical control devices and systems, the information presented should give you a check list to use in the steps to implementing an automated control system. Electrical control systems are used on everything from simple pump controls to car washes, to complex chemical processing plants. Automation of machine tools, material handling/conveyor systems, mixing processes, assembly machines, metal processing, textile processing and more has increased productivity and reliability in all areas of manufacturing, utilities and material processing. You may have come to realize that an operation or process used to produce your end product is very laborious, time consuming, and produces inconsistent results. You may have also visualized ways that would allow you to automate the operation. Automating the process will reduce the amount of manual labor, improve throughput and produce consistent results.

  • Simple Control Systems
    4 Simple Control Systems 4.1 Introduction In this chapter we will give simple examples of analysis and design of control systems. We will start in Sections 4.2 and 4.3 with two systems that can be handled using only knowledge of differential equations. Sec- tion 4.2 deals with design of a cruise controller for a car. In Section 4.3 we discuss the dynamics of a bicycle, many of its nice properties are due to a purely mechanical feedback which has emerged as a result of trial and error over a long period of time. Section 3.3 is a suitable prepara- tion for Sections 4.2 and 4.3. Differential equations are cumbersome for more complicated problems and better tools are needed. Efficient meth- ods for working with linear systems can be developed based on a basic knowledge of Laplace transforms and transfer functions. Coupled with block diagrams this gives a very efficient way to deal with linear systems. The block diagram gives the overview and the behavior of the individual blocks are described by transfer functions. The Laplace transforms make it easy to manipulate the system formally and to derive relations between different signals. This is one of the standard methods for working with control systems. It is exploited in Section 4.4, which gives a systematic way of designing PI controllers for first order systems. This section also contains material required to develop an intuitive picture of the proper- ties of second order systems. Section 4.5 deals with design of PI and PID controllers for second order systems.
