An implementation of continuous-time deadbeat control

This paper presents an application of the continuous-time deadbeat control, which is proposed recently based on the finite pole assignment for linear systems with time delay. The control object used here is a carriage, which is build with LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT as a model of crane for LCD manufacturing line. The implementation includes modeling, design, and implementation for a cheap microprocessor for the controller. A comparison with PID control is also shown here.
