Adaptive PID Controller for Dc Motor Speed Control

Abstract

This investigation is concerned with the model reference adaptive PID control (MRAPIDC). Incorporating separately excited DC motors, subjected to uncertainties including parameter variations and ensuring optimum efficiency. The idea is to find further perfection for MRAC method and to provide an even more smooth control to the DC motor and to minimize deficiencies of the traditional MRAC method. This is examined when combining the MRAC method with the PID control. The performance of the drive system obtained, formed a set of test conditions with MRAPIDC. To achieve these objectives the simulation environment is provided in the MATLAB Simulink.
