Parameter identification and digital control of speed of a permanent magnet DC motors
The digital control of speed of a permanent magnet DC motor based on a digital computer is analyzed in this paper. Datasheet information about the DC motor was initially unknown. Therefore, the parameter identification and parameter estimation of the motor was done. A type of PID controller, which parameters were optimized (PI), was used in process of controlling the speed of the motor. DAQ acquisition card was used for the purposes of motor's parameter identification and realization of computer control of motor speed in closed feedback loop. Manipulations with the same DAQ card were done using Matlab/Simulink software package. Experimental results were compared with the results obtained by simulation.
