Rapid Control Prototyping

In the design process of mechatronic systems rapid control prototyping had became an indispensable method for developing and testing control strategies. The paper presents an approach using Matlab and dSpace platforms for implementing rapid control prototyping method. The advantages of using dSpace platform are shown. The method is applied in the design of a parallel robot with 6 DOF. The simulation and experimental results are presented and compared; also the advantages of using rapid control prototyping are presented.

Rapid Control Prototyping

The article investigates the development of home energy management systems based on real-time control algorithms and online identification. The proposed system optimizes the energy consumption for heating and cooling of a household using model predictive control strategies. The virtual prototype of the energy management system is developed, simulated and optimized using Matlab/Simulink. The simulated system is then implemented using dSpace platform and rapid control prototyping on real-time hardware and tested on a laboratory surrogate system. The system performance is evaluated by comparing the results with the response of classic systems used for heating and cooling in domestic houses. The obtained results confirmed the viability of the proposed solution in home energy management systems.

Valve Control

In modern engine controlling, in order to adjust air-fuel ratio, electronic throttle valve systems are widely used in combustion engines. However, some difficulties arise in electronic throttle valve control due to multiple nonlinearities. Against this background, this study discusses the design of a throttle valve controller which is aimed to optimize control of throttle valves. Discussion is first made of how to model the electronic throttle valve. Then the design of the sliding mode controller is examined. Finally, a comparison is made of the simulation and experimental results.

This paper presents a Rapid Control Prototyping (RCP) development platform based on Matlab/Simulink, Real-Time Workshop and Embedded Target for C2000 and DSP development board. It also designs TMS320F2812 DSP-based motion controller under the proposed RCP. The controller using saturated integral PID algorithm produces PWM signal to control DC motor. Experimental results show that the designed controller can control motor accurately. Engineers can complete all design tasks such as modeling, automatic code generation, and download, running and parameters adjustment on this RCP platform when developing DSP application system. Thus the proposed RCP can shorten the DSP development cycle and improve the portability and modularity of program.
