In the present work, adaptive control systems with reference models, where the estimation of the dead time in the batch processing model is considered, are studied. It is shown that the analysis of the output sensitivity variances with regard to the process dead time can allow a good estimation of this dead time. To estimate the dead time, it seems reasonable to start with a reference model corresponding to a high value of estimated dead time. This dead time estimation method was applied in a factory to a real process with significant stationary disturbances, and excellent results were obtained.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":384081,"journal":{"name":"15th Annual Conference of IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128899121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The controller design is based on the linear prediction criteria in estimating the control variable from previous error values, providing enough time for the computations required for the self-tuning algorithm. The design procedure adopts the pole-cancellation approach and least-squares estimation in identifying the model parameters and calculating the controller coefficients using the estimated model parameters. Simulation results on different process models have shown that the controller yields improved performance and ability to cope with significant dead-time processes in comparison with conventional PID self-tuners. Specifically, the proposed scheme provides an improved performance in the sense of the classical figures of merit, such as overshoot, settling, and rise-time. The emphasis of the approach on higher-order dead-time models demonstrates its predictive capability in following the self-tuned compensation for abrupt changes and plant parameter variations.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":384081,"journal":{"name":"15th Annual Conference of IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127686793","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The machine detects a variety of defects of assembled PCBs, such as missing parts, polarity errors, improper names of ICs, and improper insertion of leads. To achieve this variety of functions, a microprogrammable image signal processor, the DSP-i, has been introduced into the machine. A character recognition algorithm called the multistep similarity vector comparison method is used in the processor. This method enables the inspection machine to recognize IC names reliably without the learning of various patterns of characters from many manufacturers. The operation speed of the DSP-i is about 20 times faster than that of a general 16-b microcomputer.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":384081,"journal":{"name":"15th Annual Conference of IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"169 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121051333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The method is essentially an implementation of a parallel adaptive model following control (AMFC) system. The reference model is obtained assuming perfect decoupling conditions. The method presented allows simple design and implementation of the AMFC system, and the desired closed-loop performance is achieved under variations of different plant parameters including the rotor resistance. Since the rotor dynamics is included in the model, it describes the transient performance of a closed-loop system. Results of numerical simulations of a self-tuning vector controller using the adaptive model reference techniques are presented. The controller gains are adjusted to accommodate changes in the rotor resistance. The nonzero steady-state error indicates that the PI gains need to be included in the adaptation loop.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":384081,"journal":{"name":"15th Annual Conference of IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128315332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
