MEC522 PBL - ArduinoDC - MotorEncoder - Close Loop

This document outlines a problem-based learning project on developing a closed-loop angular position control system using a PID controller. The objectives are to develop control system models and principles and analyze PID controller performance. A DC servo motor will be used with an encoder and Arduino to provide position feedback and PWM control. Students will implement P, PI, and PID controllers and evaluate performance metrics to improve system response. A report is required covering the control system methodology, results, analysis, and conclusions.

 Read and understand the control system as shown in Figure 1.


 Identify input and output of the control system
 Verify the hardware configuration and the interfacing of the control system as shown
in Figure 2.
 Implement the P-I-D controller to the system.
i. Proportional controller (P controller)
ii. Proportional and integral controller (PI Controller)
iii. Proportional, integral and derivative controller (PID controller)

 Improve the performance of the system using the PID controller. The requirement is
open which means that you should try to achieve as good as possible performance
for transient, stability as well as signal tracking. Use a unit step signal of magnitude
270o (384 counts).
 Attempt to achieve the best possible system performance. The best performance of
the control system based on
i. disturbance rejection
ii. steady-state error
iii. the peak time
iv. settling time
v. percentage of overshoot, etc.

 Write a report based on this PBL project
