Simulink Control Design

Description

PID Control with MATLAB and Simulink

Design and implement PID controllers

PID tuning and implementation involve several tasks that include:

  •     Selecting an appropriate PID algorithm (P, PI, or PID)
  •     Tuning controller gains
  •     Simulating the controller against a plant model
  •     Implementing the controller on a target processor

MATLAB and add-on products bring efficiency to these design tasks by enabling you to:

  •     Configure your Simulink PID Controller block for PID algorithm (P,PI, or PID), controller form (parallel or standard), anti-windup protection (on or off), and controller output saturation (on or off)
  •     Automatically tune controller gains and fine-tune your design interactively
  •     Tune multiple controllers in batch mode
  •     Run closed-loop system simulation by connecting your PID Controller block to the plant model
  •     Automatically generate C code for targeting a microcontroller
  •     Automatically generate IEC 61131 structured text for targeting a PLC or PAC
  •     Automatically scale controller gains to implement your controller on a processor with fixed-point arithmetic
