Nj. Huang et al., REAL-TIME SIMULATION AND ANIMATION OF SUSPENSION CONTROL-SYSTEM USINGTI TMS320C30 DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR, Simulation, 61(6), 1993, pp. 405-416
Real-Time Simulation and Animation (RTSA) of dynamic control systems h
as been shown to significantly enhance the interpretation, understandi
ng and evaluation of system response performance. Texas Instruments' T
MS320C30 Digital Signal Processor is demonstrated to play a key role i
n accelerating the simulation speed and, in turn, increasing the graph
ics quality. The main feature of the approach we used to evaluate an a
ctive suspension system includes a multi-processor system includes a m
ulti-processor hardware structure (a PC and a DSP), software controlle
d interprocessor communication and shared memory, and the RTSA techniq
ue. These are discussed in the paper. In fact, the configuration outli
ned in this paper provides a platform for a high speed computing syste
m. It is suitable for real-time applications such as signal processing
, dynamic control and estimation, as well as graphical simulation.
