This reference offers insight into problems of coding control algorithms on a DSP platform. The text bridges the gap between theoretical control analysis and industrial practice. Coverage includes basic speed and position control structures as well as motion control topics like nonlinear position control, control of mechanical structures with flexible couplings, electric shaft problems, compliance and mechanical resonance problems and anti-resonant solutions. A set of Simulink® simulation files and exercises follows each chapter. Having read the book and done the exercises, the reader should acquire a reasonable ability to design and deal with the real-world speed and position controllers and trajectory generators.

Provides broad insights into problems of coding control algorithms on a DSP platform Includes a set of Simulink simulation files (source codes) which permits readers to envisage the effects of control solutions on the overall motion control system Bridges the gap between control analysis and industrial practice

Autorentext

Slobodan Vukosavic teaches graduate and postgraduate courses in electric machines, digital control of electrical drives and electric vehicles, and serves as Head of the Power Engineering Department at the University of Belgrade. His scientific interests are in areas of electromechanical conversion, mechatronics, modelling and identification, DSP-based control of power converters & drives and industry automation. He published over 50 international journal papers and completed 37 large scale R/D projects in Europe and the U.S. His work is referenced in the SCI (over 50), as well as in reference books such as the Willey Encyclopaedia of Electrical and Electronics Engineering. He founded the Laboratory for Digital Control of PC and Drives,, subsuming the R/D efforts of several postgraduates and R/D engineers, related to IR, Philips, Semicron, GE, MOOG, Emerson Electric, TI, Schneider, Sever and other centres in Serbia and abroad.Prof. Vukosavic conceptualized and designed motion control systems applied at the leading car manufacturer's (Fiat, Renault, Peugeot etc.). He was the leading designer of digital multiaxis platforms for industrial robots for several U.S. and European manufacturers (EL-GE, Polimotor, Vickers, Eaton, MOOG) and coordinated design of the first automotive robot based on the integral drive concept and the Real-Time Ethernet host link. His current interests include devices and controls reducing the emission and pollution of power plants, the energy efficiency and advanced drive concepts.
