Servomechanism for Antenna Azimuth Control
This example shows the simulation of a servomechanism for antenna azimuth control using
QFIRE Studio
.Introduction
An antenna positioning system [1] can be represented by:
Simulation
For the system G(s), it was designed a discrete control system aiming an overshoot less than 16% and a settling time less than 10s. This controller is represented by:
Figure 1 - Transfer function
The system in Figure 1 was set in a
QFIRE CTR-101
with sampling period T=1s.
Figure 2 - Control system of an antenna positioning system
As a result, the plant is stabilized as in Figure 3.
