Controller design for simulation control of Intelligent Pneumatic Actuators (IPA) system

Abstract

Intelligent Pneumatic Actuators (IPA) is a system for application that requires better control and accuracy. The purpose of this paper is to present a controller design for simulation control of an IPA system using Proportional-Integrative (PI) controller and pole-placement feedback controller. Before the controller is designed, a model identification is used to obtain the plant using transfer function. The flow for the controller design starts with the theory, mathematical calculation, procedures and the implementation of the simulation control by using MATLAB software. Furthermore, simulation results are compared and analyzed to illustrate the performance of the proposed controllers
