Track irregularity is one of the most important aspects of the suspension control performance impact in Magnetic Transportation System (MTS). By using the traditional PID control, the problem was that it was difficult to confirm the PID parameters and have long settling time, even appear the chaotic phenomenon. However, using Expert PID(EPID) control method producesd over-fitting to initial assignments, local optimum induced easily and slow convergence rate problem. Based on the global optimization feature of PSO algorithm, it had been adopted to optimize the initial values of Expert PID control. An intelligent control algorithm for the maglev transportation system was put forward based on Expert PID optimized by Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (EPID-PSO). The expert rule was that if the absolute value of the error trended to decrease, the PID current control keeped its maintenance; if not, then the PID current control applied strong functions. Under this rule, the dynamic error was reduced and the performance of track irregularity was improved. Simulation results by MATLAB proves that the control scheme has good robustness, shorter adjustment time, faster response time, achieving better quality of control under the three conditions of step signal, low frequence sine wave signal and high frequence square wave signal.

Track irregularity is one of the most important aspects of the suspension control performance impact in maglev transportation system (MTS). Due to the track irregularity phenomenon of suspension system, the Fuzzy PID(F-PID) control is unable to accurately track irregularity of track changes. Based on the qualitative analysis to MTS, through modifying conventional F-PID controller, the article establishes Fuzzy Immune PID(FI-PID) Controller based on the biological immune system theory. The control strategy designed nonlinear P controller, using the immune algorithm of on-line adjustment of P and the fuzzy control approximating the nonlinear function of the immune P control parameters and the fuzzy control designed the ID controller for adjusting the parameters of I and D for enhancing the robust performance of the suspension system and adapting to the change of track irregularity. Simulation results show that the FI-PID control is confirmed more effectively to realize tracking compared with F-PID, faster response speed, more simple structure, easier operation for the track interference and load disturbance of the suspension system. This provides a very good way to solve the interference problem of orbit of the maglev transportation system.

In this paper, the levitation control method of a MIMO Magnetic Levitation (Maglev) transportation system with 3-DOF is presented. Fluctuations of magnetic poles cause the Maglev system to become critically unstable. We propose a design method of the MIMO Maglev controller based on SISO Maglev control technology to correct the suspension and compensate for the effect of rotational motions. In addition, a force loop controller is designed for placement in front of each sub-controller of an electromagnet for stability improvement. The proposed control method is evaluated using simulations and real experiments using the developed Maglev transportation system.

 A quadrotor is a four-rotor aircraft capable of vertical take-off and landing, hovering, forward flight, and having great maneuverability. Its platform can be made in a small size make it convenient for indoor applications as well as for outdoor uses. In model there are four input forces that are essentially the thrust provided by each propeller attached to each motor with a fixed angle. The quadrotor is basically considered an unstable system because of the aerodynamic effects; consequently, a close-loop control system is required to achieve stability and autonomy. Such system must enable the quadrotor to reach the desired attitude as fast as possible without any steady state error. In this paper, an optimal controller is designed based on a Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) control method to obtain stability in flying the quadrotor. The dynamic model of this vehicle will be also explained by using Euler-Newton method. The mechanical design was performed along with the design of the controlling algorithm. Matlab Simulink was used to test and analyze the performance of the proposed control strategy. The experimental results on the quadrotor demonstrated the effectiveness of the methodology used.

A speed tracking control method for induction machine is shown in this paper. The method consists of outer speed control loop and inner current control loop. Model predictive current control method without the need for calculation of the weighing factors is utilized for the inner control loop, which generates a continuous set of voltage reference values that can be modulated and applied by the inverter to the induction machine. Interesting parallels are drawn between the developed method and state feedback principles that helped with the analysis of the stability and controllability. Simple speed and rotor flux estimator is implemented that helps achieve sensorless control. Simulation is conducted and the method shows great performance for speed tracking in a steady state, and during transients as well. Additionally, compared to the finite control set predictive current control, it shows less harmonic content in the generated torque on the rotor shaft.

A compliant constant-force actuator based on the cylinder is an important tool for the contact operation of robots. Due to the nonlinearity and time delay of the pneumatic system, the traditional proportional–integral–derivative (PID) method for constant force control does not work so well. In this paper, an improved PID control method combining a backpropagation (BP) neural network and the Smith predictor is proposed. Through MATLAB simulation and experimental validation, the results show that the proposed method can shorten the maximum overshoot and the adjustment time compared with traditional the PID method.
