IMPLEMENTATION OF SELF-TUNING ALGORITHMS FOR REFERENCE TRACKING OF A DC DRIVE USING A DSP CHIP

This paper describes the implementation of two self-tuning control alg orithms for the speed control of a permanent magnet dc motor. The algo rithms minimize a cost function incorporating system input, output, an d set-point variation for reference tracking. Variable forgetting fact or using data normalization with constant trace has been utilized. Sel f-tuning controllers have been implemented using a single-chip digital signal processor (DSP). It results in reduction of system hardware, c ost, and calculation time.
