Abstract
The control problem for a series DC motor is considered. Based on
a nonlinear mathematical model of a series-connected DC motor, it is
shown that the combination of a nonlinear transformation and state
feedback (feedback linearization) reduces the nonlinear control design
to a linear control design. To demonstrate its effectiveness, an
experimental study of this controller is presented. These experimental
results are also compared with a simulation of the closed-loop system.
Finally, it is shown that a nonlinear observer (with linear error
dynamics) for speed and load torque can be constructed based only on
measurements of the motor current. Experimental results of this speed
and load-torque estimator are also presented
