READY FOR TAKEOFF
In this article, I described
a systematic approach to computer-aided design and rapid
prototyping of digital feedback controllers. As you’ve
seen, it’s possible to quickly develop nonlinear
and linear models using Maple and design controllers using
MATLAB.
Simulations are implemented
using Simulink and real-time controllers are implemented
using Realtime Workshop and WinCon. WinCon’s Internet
capabilities facilitate the remote control and monitoring
capabilities, enabling the user to test designs remotely,
from across the room or across the globe.
Jacob Apkarian is the
president of Quanser Consulting, which designs and manufactures
advanced control system experiments to teach control systems.
