본 논문은 직류전동기(DC motor)와 전기적인 특성은 유사하지만, 수명과 신뢰성이 향상된 BLDC 모터의 제어기법에 대해 언 급하고 있다. BLDC모터는 회전자의 위치 정보를 사용하여 직류전동기의 기계적인 접촉에 의한 정류 장치를 제거함으로써 내구성과 속도 안정성을 향상시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 BLDC모터의 권선에 흐르는 전류가 직류전동기의 전기자에 흐르는 구형파 형태의 전 류인 것에 착안하여 직류전동기에 대한 제어기를 설계하고, 설계된 제어기를 3상 BLDC모터에 적용하여 제어기의 유효성을 확인하였 다. 이를 위해 3상 BLDC모터의 전기적인 파라미터 값을 가지는 단상 직류전동기의 모델링을 실시하였고, 도출된 시스템에 대해 근궤 적법을 적용하여 전동기의 속도제어를 위한 PI 제어기를 설계하였다. DC 전동기의 속도제어 시뮬레이션을 시행하여 제어기의 성능을 확인하였고, 동일한 제어기를 MATLAB으로 구현한 3상 BLDC모터의 속도제어에 적용하였다. DC 전동기와 유사한 제어 결과를 3상 BLDC모터에서 얻을 수 있었고, 이를 통해 연구에서 제안한 제어기법의 유용성을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper describes the design of H-infinity controller for robust control of a DC motor system. The suggested controller can ensure robustness against disturbance and model uncertainty by minimizing H-infinity norm of the transfer function from exogenous input to performance output and applying the small gain theorem. In particular, the controller was designed to reduce the effects of disturbance and model uncertainty simultaneously by formalizing these problems as a mixed sensitivity problem. The validity of the proposed controller was demonstrated by computer simulations and real experiments. Moreover, the effectiveness of the proposed controller was confirmed by comparing its performance with PI controller, which was tested under the same experimental condition as the H-infinity controller.

This paper deals with the disturbance observer (DOB) based sliding mode control (SMC) for a DC motor to control motor rotating speed precisely and to ensure strong robustness against disturbance including load torque and parameter variation. The reason of steady state error in speed on conventional SMC without DOB is analyzed in detail. Especially, the suggested DOB is designed to prevent measuring noise and harmonics caused by derivative operation on rotating speed. The control performance of the DOB based SMC is evaluated by the various simulations. The simulation results showed that the DOB based SMC had more robust performance than the SMC system without DOB. Especially, precise speed control was possible even though motor parameter variation and load torque was added to the system.

This study investigates the noise characteristics of small DC motors and applies them to the production line of small DC motors to qualify. Because currently the noise and vibration are greatly reduced due to vibration reduction technology and sound insulation technology of engine and transmission development. For this reason, the noise and vibration problems of various small DC motors that have not been heard before are emerging. For this purpose, noise characteristics of good and bad products of company A and B which are most used at present are analyzed and noise characteristics are investigated.

Analog PID controllers have been designed to make good use of position control in industries. Recently, the importance of digital position control is emphasized for the requirements of controller which are not only to control the objects but to include various aspects such as easiness of design and implementation, simple exchange of control program and convenient communications of data between various controllers and a host computer. This study proposes a combined control method which is mixed the vaiable structure control (VSC) with the PI control for minimum time position control of DC servo motor by microcomputer. The results of test by this method show offset-free and minimum time optimal position control which is not affected by the disturbance and the system parameter variations. The validity of the proposed method comparing with the conventional PID control is proved by the response experiments.
