Control outputi.e. Output = Input, despite disturbancesThis is achieved by feedback.

Open loop systems - i.e. without feedback

Process with transfer function P perturbed by a disturbance D.

Suppose P is 10 and disturbance D is 0.If the output O is to be 1, just make input I = 0.1.

But, if P changes by 10% to 11 then O changes by 10% to 1.1.

If disturbance D is 0.1, then O will also change by 0.1.

Closed loop system: feedback added!Now consider the ‘closed-loop’ system below: P represents the device being controlled; C is the controller.

Ignoring disturbances (D = 0), by forward over 1 minus loop rule

Let P = 10, as before, and C = 10;

If I is 1, then O is 0.99 i.e. it is within 1% of being 1

If P changes to 11; O = I * 110/111; if I is 1, O is still about 0.99.

To see the effect of disturbances, assume I is 0. Then

If C = 10, P = 10 and D = 0.1

Negative Feedback•reduces effects on output of disturbances•reduces effects on output of parameter changes

If CP large: O ~ I + 0 = I

So Feedback • makes output almost same as input, • minimises effects of disturbances and • reduces effect of change in device.This is true because the ‘loop gain’, C * P, is high.

Note, can’t just keep increasing the ‘gain’ of C.Also, need to consider the dynamics of the blocksAlso, there can be a block in the feedback path which we must consider

Specify a motor and resistor for R2-D2?

Assume we walk at 2 m/s & R2-D2’s wheel diameter is 4cm. Therefore, required angular velocity is: 16 revs/s -> 100 radians/s

Input voltage is 4 D cells giving 6V input.

Ke = 6/100 = 0.06 V/rad/s

Weight of R2-D2 gives an inertia torque (J):

J = 0.05 kgm2

Assume current is 1 amp -> R = 1

Want T = 0.2s

KT = 25 Nm/A

We need to form a relationship between input voltage and output velocity:

Now include armature inductance:

Back emf of motor:

Torque proportional to armature current:

Torque is opposed by the inertia torque:

Hint: apply Kirchhoff’s voltage law to the armature circuit

We need to form a relationship between input voltage and output velocity:
