Wireless Speed Control of DC Motor Drive System

Abstract

Application of wireless protocol standard for remote control and monitoring of a separately excited DC Motor drive system is introduced. An appropriate wireless system using ZigBee protocol standard has been developed and implemented. The measurement of armature speed done using an incremental shaft encoder. The simulation of the proposed system is carried out using Matlab/Simulink tools and the simulated results for the armature current and speed are given. Experimental result confirms the validity of this wireless monitoring and control system. The obtained results can be used in design and implementation of such types of wireless systems.
