Description

This paper presents a study of the effects of proportional (P), integral (I) and differential (D) controller in speed regulation of a direct current (DC) motor. Controlling the speed of a DC motor is very important as any small change can lead to instability of the closed-loop system. The steady-state equation of a motor is given. All simulations were performed in Matlab. Simulations were performed in three-fold: The open-loop system response is first analyzed. Then feedback without PID control is studied. Finally, PID control is applied. Results obtained show that a combination of P, I and D can maintain stability and improve the overall system performance.
