Feedforward control represents an essential strategy in modern motion systems, where anticipated disturbances and system dynamics are counteracted by pre-calculated control inputs. This proactive ...

When there exists strong noise factors in the process, robust parameter design alone may not be effective, and a control strategy can be used to compensate for the effect of noise. In this article a ...

Can we improve performance by adding control elements external to the PID loop? Yes. Here we consider torque control and the related subject of torque feedforward — which can make systems run more ...

A review of artificial neural network (ANN) technique is presented. An application of a neural network in an embedded real-time feed-forward control system is described. Performance of the example ...
