This study introduces an improved Bode's ideal transfer function (BITF) controller to enhance disturbance rejection in cascaded integrator systems. The new method boosts performance for permanent magnet synchronous motor servo systems without compromising stability.
Area of Science:
- Control Systems Engineering
- Electrical Engineering
- Mechatronics
Background:
- Basic Bode's ideal transfer function (BITF) controllers struggle with disturbance rejection for plants featuring cascaded integrators.
- Enhancing disturbance rejection is crucial for robust control system performance.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose an improved BITF-based control method for superior disturbance rejection in specific control systems.
- To enhance the open-loop magnitude characteristics for better low and high-frequency performance.
Main Methods:
- Integration of a fractional order proportional-integral controller and a Bode's ideal cut-off filter into the BITF strategy.
- Application to the speed control of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) servo systems.
- Verification through simulations and experimental studies, including performance comparisons.
Main Results:
- The improved BITF controller significantly enhances disturbance rejection performance.
- Robustness and dynamic response of the PMSM servo system are improved.
- The proposed method outperforms existing control strategies in simulations and experiments.
Conclusions:
- The enhanced BITF controller effectively improves disturbance rejection and robustness for PMSM servo systems.
- The method offers a better trade-off between performance and stability compared to existing approaches.
- This approach provides a viable solution for enhancing control system performance in demanding applications.
