MATLAB-Toolbox for CAD of simple self-tuning controllers

Abstract

The contribution presents a MATLAB-Toolbox for design, simulation and verification of single input single output (SISO) discrete self-tuning controllers. The proposed adaptive controllers who are included into a Toolbox can be divided into two parts. The first part covers PID adaptive algorithms using traditional Ziegler-Nichols method for the setting of the controller parameters, the second part of described controllers is based on the pole placement design. The MATLAB-Toolbox is very successfully used in Adaptive Control Course in education practice for design, simulation and verification of self - tuning control systems in real - time conditions. It is suitable for design and verification of the industrial controllers, too. Copyright (C) 2001 IFAC.
