DIGITAL CONTROL OF MECHATRONICS SYSTEMS

Catalog description

Explores modeling and control of mechatronics systems. Reviews Laplace and Fourier transforms and then examines Industrial Proportional (P), Derivative (D), Integral (I)-based, PD, P-PI, PID, lead-lag and pole placement feedback control strategies, and their design principles based on time and frequency domain performance metrics. Explores the frequency domain loop-shaping control design approach, and reference command generation and feedforward control for motion control. Examines digital control and real-time implementation of feedback control laws on real-time micro-processor systems. Implement and test feedback control algorithms on a servo motor setup in the labs.
