STEADY-STATE ERROR

PROBLEM DEFINITION The unity feedback system below with gain K=100 represents an elevator in one of many city's multistorey buildings

Each of the elevator's floor's buttons is the input of the system and is represented by unit step command. Assuming that the fourth (4) floor button is pressed on the ground floor in order to reach a floor 4

Using MATLAB do the following 1. Find: a) The system type. b) Position coefficient Kp, Velocity coefficient Kv and acceleration coefficient Ka in terms of gain K. c) Steady-state error for inputs u(t), tu(t) and t 2 u(t) in terms of gain K 2. Find the value of gain K to yield a 30% error in the steady-state. 3. Plot the step response for the K value found in part 2, and give comment on the result. Estimate rise time Tr, Peak time Tp, settling time Ts and percent overshoot from the plot. 4. Repeat the task from part 3 for K=100 and compare the obtained results with those from part 3.

Part 1) The system described in the problem definition has the forward transfer function : G(s) = K(s+10) s(s+1)(s+20)(s+50) If we consider the denominator of G(s), we see that the number of pure iterations in the forward path is 1. Therefore this is a type 1 system. Verification of this result can be found by calculating the static error coefficients : Positional constant Kp : Kp=lims->0 G(s) = K/0 = Inf. Velocity constant Kv : Kv=lims->0 s. G(s) = Kx 10/1 x 20 x 50=K/100 Acceleration constant Ka : Ka=lims->0 s 2 G(s) = Kx 0/100 = 0. These results are consistent with the definition of a type 1 system.

Part 2) For a 30% steady-state error, and using the expressions for Kv found in part 1. Therefore a gain of K=333. 33 will result in a 30% steady-state error for a ramp input. The solution to this question is also shown using Matlab in part 3.

Part 3) K = 3333 Forward transfer function: Transfer function: 333. 3 s + 3333 ------------------s^4 + 71 s^3 + 1070 s^2 + 1000 s Closed-loop system: Transfer function: 333. 3 s + 3333 ----------------------s^4 + 71 s^3 + 1070 s^2 + 1333 s + 3333

Part 4) K = 100 Forward transfer function: Transfer function: 100 s + 1000 ------------------s^4 + 71 s^3 + 1070 s^2 + 1000 s Closed-loop system: Transfer function: 100 s + 1000 ----------------------s^4 + 71 s^3 + 1070 s^2 + 1100 s + 1000

Problem 2

PROBLEM DEFINITION A space telescope is to be launched to carry out astronomical experiments. The pointing control system is desired to achieve 0. 01 minute of arc and track solar objects with apparent motion up to 0. 21 minute per second. The system is illustrated in Figure. The control system is shown in block diagram. Assume that τ1= 1 second and τ2= 0 ( an approximation ).

Block Diagram

Using MATLAB do the following 1) Determine the gain K=K 1 K 2 required so that the response to a step command is as rapid as reasonable with an overshoot of less than 5% 2) Determine the steady-state error of the system for a step and a ramp input 3) Determine the value of K 1 K 2 for an ITAE optimal system for (1) a step input and (2) a ramp input
