INTELLIGENT CONTROL OF MAGNETIC LEVITATION SYSTEM

H Control and Sliding Mode Control of Magnetic Levitation System

In this paper, H disturbance attenuation control and sliding mode disturbance estimation and compensation control of a magnetic levitation system are studied. A magnetic levitation apparatus is established, and its model is measured. Then the system model is feedback linearized. A H controller is then designed. For comparison, a sliding mode controller and a PID controller also were designed. S...

Optimization of Magnetic Levitation System

In magnetically levitated system in certain applications like magnetically levitated train or bearingless motors the distance between the magnet and the levitated object has to be constant. The nonlinear system in such cases can be linearized and transfer function of the system is obtained. But a proper controller is required to manipulate the current through the magnet coil. The simplest contr...

Output feedback control of a mechanical system using magnetic levitation.

This paper presents an application of a nonlinear magnetic levitation system to the problem of efficient active control of mass-spring-damper mechanical systems. An output feedback control scheme is proposed for reference position trajectory tracking tasks on the flexible mechanical system. The electromagnetically actuated system is shown to be a differentially flat nonlinear system. An extende...

Nonlinear Control of a Planar Magnetic Levitation System

In this paper, we derive the model of a three-magnet positioning device and design a nonlinear control that stabilizes it. The motivation of this work is to develop tools that may have practical significance to, e.g., photolithography and to create a challenging nonlinear control problem which can be used to test novel nonlinear control approaches. The nonlinear controller designed here transfo...
