Abstract

In this study, we design a controller that regulates the water leveling system which suffers from the disturbance. A number of control techniques have been reported which can reduce the amplitude of disturbance. But due to input-delay, these methods do not perform as expected. To overcome the problem, this paper introduces a filter and proposes a proportional and integral (PI) controller that combined with the filter (modifed PI controller). Moreover, we combine the controller with disturbance observer (DOB) that can estimate and eliminate disturbance. The proposed controller and combined the controller with DOB are tested using MATLAB.

본 논문에서는 출력단에 외란이 존재하는 수위 제어 시스템을 안정화하는 제어기를 제안하였다. 출력단의 외란의 효과를 감소시키기 위하여 여러 기법들이 제안되었지만 시스템에 존재하는 시간지연으로 인해 기대한 만큼 제어성능이 나오지 않고, 시간지연을 해석하기도 쉽지 않다. 이런 문제를 해결해보고자 PI 제어기에 필터를 도입해서 외란의 영향을 감소시키고, 외란관측기(Disturbance Observer)를 추가로 적용하여 출력단 외란의 영향이 감소되는 것을 검증하였다. 제안된 제어기는 MATLAB 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 성능을 검증하였다.
