Concerning my undergraduate final project, I am to design a controller. First things first, let me share you a little bit of what I’ve learned about the process and methods for designing a control system. This post also serves as a parameter for my progress documentation of the project.
The process of designing a control system usually makes many demands of the engineer or engineering team. These demands often emerge in step by step design procedure as follows:
- Study the system (plant) to be controlled and obtain initial information about the control objectives.
- Model the system and simplify the model, if necessary.
- Analyze the resulting model; determine its properties. More
