Stability and performance evaluation of the speed control of DC motor using state-feedback controller

Abstract

Direct current (DC) motor are widely used in many applications due to its accurate control of speed and position. However, a proper control and operation is still required and might be a challenge for control designers. This paper presents the design of a state-feedback control to evaluate the performance of the speed control of DC motor for different applications. The simulation results were carried out with and without disturbance applied to the system. The proposed control method showed a stable system response with both cases of disturbances. Therefore, it can be used to solidate the control of DC motor in the real application.

Real-Time Implementation and Control of Multi-Source Electric Vehicle Traction Motor under Various Drive Conditions

“…Using a self-tuning fuzzy PID controller, the armature voltage control is executed by comparing the actual speed and reference speed. A more advanced controller based on a linear state feedback controller and state feedback observer was presented in [6] to track the speed of a DC motor. Although the results were satisfactory in comparison with those for PI and PID controllers, the non-linear behavior, plant disturbance, and sensor noise may lead to deviations in the control performance due to linearization.…”
