Overview

The paper presented research results of a digital control system for a dynamic plant with pulse-width modulation (PWM) of control impacts. As the control PWM signal is taken the pulse duty cycle, is calculated on each current cycle of the sample from the measured values. A control algorithm is proposed based on a hybrid application of the linear-quadratic optimization procedure and the theory of observers of minimal complexity. To ensure execution that the conditions of Astatism are met, the dynamic model of the plant is supplemented with a discrete integrator. The proposed approach makes it possible to reduce hardware costs and increase the robustness of the control system due to the exclusion of operations for digital–analogue transformations of signals. The proposed algorithm for digital control of a dynamic plant with varying duty cycle values of the PWM signal shows that the PWM model turned out to be linear and practically inertia less, which makes it easy to take into account the modulator model, which significantly simplifies the solution of the problem of synthesizing a control system for a dynamic plant. The possibility of receiving a high-quality modulated control signal allows for significant suppression of signal pulsations and high control accuracy.
