FPGA as a tool for hardware realization of feedback control

The presented paper deals with the development of robust control algorithm based on reflection vectors methodology. This approach of controller design is guaranteeing stability, robustness and high performance. The presented method was successfully tested for stable, unstable and strong oscillating processes and for systems with parametrical model uncertainty. The proposed algorithm can be effectively realized using field-programmable gate array (FPGA) structure as it is shown in the case study – the hardware realization using FPGA technology for DC motor. All presented simulations and co-simulations were realized in MATLAB-Simulink.
