1 INTRODUCTION
The use of the general type dc motors has its long history. It has been used in the
industries for many years now. They provide simple means and precise way ofcontrol [1]. In addition, they have high efficiency and have a high starting torque
versus falling speed characteristics which helps high starting torque and helps to
prevent sudden load rise [2]. But with such characteristics, the dc motors have
some deficiencies that needed to be attended to which gave rise to design of some
other alternative types of dc motors. For example, the lack of periodic
maintenance, mechanical wear outs, acoustic noise, sparkling, brusheseffects are
some of the problems that were needed to overcome the defects in dc motors. As aresult, emphatic studies have been made on synchronous dc motors with brushless
commutators. So, current researches have been tailored towards developing
brushless direct current motors, which are fast becoming alternatives to the
conventional dc motor types. The BrushLess Direct Current (BLDC) motors are
gaining grounds in the industries, especially in the areas of appliances production,
aeronautics, medicine, consumer and industrial automations and so on.
The BLDC are typically permanent synchronous motors, they are well driven by
dc voltage. They have a commutation that is done mainly by electronics
application.
Some of the many advantages of a brushless dc motor over the conventional
brushed dc motors are highlighted below [3]:
1. Better speed versus torque characteristics
2. High dynamic response
3. High efficiency
4. Long operating life
5. Noiseless operation
6. Higher speed ranges
7. Low maintenance (in terms of brushes cleaning; which is peculiar to the
brushed dc motors).
Another vital advantage is that the ratio of torque delivered to the size of the
motor is higher, and this contributes to its usefulness in terms of space and weight
consideration.

The BLDC motors come in different phases, for example, single phase, double-,
and triple- types. In depth discussion would not be made in this regards, but the
most commonly used of all these is the three phase type.
For this purpose, a brief perspective will be considered on how the BLDC motors
could be compensated in terms of control and stability. Therefore, this report
would presents a theoretical background of DC and BLDC motors, design of
simple model of basic DC motors tailored towards developing a BLDC motor
model. In addition, a brief introduction of a very essential tool of stability
determinant would also be discussed under PID auto-tuning. Thereafter, a
MATLAB/SIMULINK model of the BLDC motor would also be reported
accordingly.
The PID controller is applied in various fields of engineering, and it is also a very
important tool in telecommunication system. If there is a system and stability is
desired, then PID could be very useful.
A simple systematic approach to these tasks is given in chapter format as given
below. The chapters 2 and 3 present the DC motor and design concepts while
chapter 4 gives a brief introduction into the Brushless DC motor and its model
concept. It also elaborates the basic concept of their mathematical representationsin simple format. The particular BLDC motor used is a maxon motor and chapters
5 7 present the whole modelling idea of this specific motor and the open loop
response analysis was also included as part of the pre-analysis needed for the
subsequent control.
Also, the idea of the PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller and its
design concepts, control mechanism and tuning methods are presented under
chapters 8 and 9.Chapters 10 12 present the work done on the robot trajectory planning and
simulation. The chapter 10 was used to elaborate the required standard football
pitch layout model; chapter 11, for the analysis and computation for the robot
four-wheeled motors and the chapter 12 gives the planning stages and
corresponding coding schemes.

and possible improvement needed in future works.

2 DC MOTOR
2.1 DC motors
A brief illustration and mathematical representation of DC motors will be
discussed in the section based on the general concepts of electromagnetic
induction.
The DC motors are made of a number of components; some of which are [1]:
1. Frame
2. Shaft
3. Bearings
4. Main field windings (Stator)
5. Armature (Rotor)
6. Commutator
7. Brush Assembly1
The most important part of these components that needs detail attention is the
main field and the rotating windings (the stator and the rotor respectively).

Commutator
Shaft

As shown infigure 2.1,the stator is formed by the metal carcass with a permanent
magnet enclosure which a magnetic field inside the stator windings. At one of the

ends is the brush mountings and the brush gear which are used for electrical
contacts with the armature (the rotor).
The field windings are mounted on the poles pieces to create electromagnetism.
The strength of this electromagnetic field is determined by the extent of
interaction between the rotor and the stator. Also, the brushes serve as the contact-
piece for the commutator to provide electrical voltage to the motor. Consistent dirt
on the commutator causes disruption in the supply of dc voltage, which creates a
number of maintenance applications. This sometimes could lead to corrosion and
sometimes sparks between the carbon made brushes and the commutator.
One of the major challenges is the control of the speed (speed precision); but this
could be done by varying the applied voltage. Varying the supply voltage might
involve the use of a variable resistor (or a rheostat) which will be connected in
tandem with the armature to form a series connection. But this kind of
arrangement is not efficient enough as a result of power dissipation. In recent
times, solid state electronics has made its implication in this regard through the
use of controlled rectifiers and choppers. This arrangement could be efficient as
they are used for highly efficient varying dc voltage. In most cases, the most
commonly used device is the thyristor (this allows for voltage variation byvarying the firing angle of the thyristor in question) [4]. Consider the simple
arrangement infigure 2.2.

For equation 3.7,

The transfer function is therefore obtained as follows using the ratio of and the
angular velocity, to source voltage, Vs.That is,
() = = 2+ + + + (3.17)From these, the transfer function could be derived accordingly as follows:
That is,

1. The friction constant is small, that is, tends to 0, this implies that;2. , and3.

So from the equations 3.20 3.22, the difference in the DC and BLDC motorswill be shown.
This difference will affect primarily the mechanical and electrical constants as
they are very important parts of modelling parameters.

7 OPEN LOOP ANALYSIS OF THE MAXON MOTOR
MODEL
The open loop analysis would be done using the MATLAB/SIMULINK. And
the corresponding stability analysis is given likewise to see the effect thereafter
when there is closed loop system incorporation.
7.1 Open Loop Analysis using MATLABm-file
With the aid of the BLDC motor parameters provided, the open loop analysis is
done by considering the stability factors and making the necessary plots for this
analysis. Some of the plots include the step response, root locus, nyquist diagram,
and bode plot diagram.
For this, separate m- f i l es were created for the constants, evaluated constants

8 PID DESIGN CONCEPT
The Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller is about the most common
and useful algorithm in control systems engineering [7]. In most cases, feedbackloops are controlled using the PID algorithm. The main reason why feedback is
very important in systems is to be able to attain a set-point irrespective of
disturbances or any variation in characteristics of any form.
The PID controller is always designed to correct error(s) between measured
process value(s) and a particular desired set-point in a system.
A simple illustration on how the PID works is given below:
Consider the characteristics parameters proportional (P), integral (I), andderivative (D) controls, as applied to the diagram below infigure 8.1,the system,
S is to be controlled using the controller, C; where controller, C efficiency
depends on the P, I and D parameters [8].
CONTROLLER SYSTEMRY
+-
e u
Figure 8.1 A typical system with a controller [8]
The controller provides the excitation needed by the system and it is designed to
control the overall behaviour of the system.
The PID controller has several categories of structural arrangements. The most
common of these are the series and parallel structures and in some cases, there are
the hybrid form of the series and the parallel structures.
The following shows the typical illustrative diagrams of common PID controller
structures.
Typically, the function of the form shown in equation 8.1 is applicable in this kind
of PID controller design.

Figure 8.2 PID parameters schematics
Considering thefigure 8.1,variable, eis the sample error, and it is the difference
between the desired input value,Rand the actual output, Y. In a closed loop, e will
be sent to the controller, and the controller will perform the integral and derivative
computation on the error signal. Thereafter, the signal, u which is the output of the
controller is now equal to the sum of [the product of proportional gain, KPand the
magnitude of the error], [the product of the integral gain, KIand the integral of the
error] and [the product of the derivative gain, KDand the derivative of the error].
That is,
=+ + (8.2)The signal value, u is sent continuously to the plant with every corresponding new
output, Ybeing obtained as the process continues. The output, Yis sent back and
subsequently new error signal, eis found and the same process repeats itself on
and on.

Also, it is very typical to have the PID transfer function written in several forms
depending on the arrangement structure. The following equation shows one of
these (a parallel structure):
+ + = 1 + 1 + (8.3)Where, = Proportional gain= Integral time or Reset time =

8.1
Some characteristics effects of PID controller parameters
The proportional gain ,will reduce the rise time and might reduce or removethe steady-state error of the system. The integral gain ,will eliminate the steady-state error but it might a negative effect on the transient response (a worse
response might be produced in this case). And the derivative gain
,will tend to
increase the stability of the system, reducing overshoot percentage, and improving
the transient response of the system. In all, the table below will give
comprehensive effects of each of the controllers on a typical closed-loop system.

The ability to blend these three parameters will make a very efficient and stable
system. It should be noted that the relationship between the three controller
parameters may not exactly be accurate because of their interdependency.
Therefore, it is very possible to compute particular parameters which effects
would be noticed on the other two.
8.2 PID controller design tips
Designing a PID controller might require some of the following steps to obtain a
more efficient and stable system [5]:
1. It is advisable to obtain the open-loop response of the system first and
subsequently determine what to improve;
2. Add a proportional gain control to improve the rising time;
3. Then, add a derivative gain to improve the overshoot percentage;
4. And perhaps, add the integral control to eliminate the steady-state error;
5. Thereafter, adjust each of the parameters might be important to achieve an
overall desired performance (or output).
And most importantly, all the three PID controller parameters might not be
necessarily used in some cases. In most cases, the tuning stops at the PI control
combination.
More also, it should be noted that the major goal of the PID parameters is to
obtain a fast rise time with minimum overshoot and no (almost no) steady-state
error.

9 PID CONTROLLER TUNING PARAMETERS
Under this section a critical analysis would be done on the PID tuning criteria and
the parameters involved. Before a detail analysis is done, a quick look at thetuning methods is considered first and thereafter, specific tuning parameters are
computed for the BLDC maxon motor. Some of the generally used tuning
methods are the Trial and Error method, the Ziegler-Nichols method (1st),
ImprovedZiegler-Nichols method (2nd), Cohen-Coon method, Genetic Algorithms
and so on. For this work, the Ziegler-Nichols tuning method would be given a
priority.
9.1
The PID arrangement
As a general form, a full schematic of the PID controller arrangement with the
System model arrangement is displayed infigure 9.1 as a start for the tuning
procedure.

Thefigure 9.1 is under no saturation, but the saturation is included infigure 9.2.
Both figures would be used for our analysis.

Figure 9.2 PID Schematic for a full PID Controller (with saturation) and systemmodel arrangement
For an initial computation, P, PI and PID would be considered in that order to
observe the best part for the PID parameters to be obtained.
9.2 Trial and Error tuning methods
This method is crude but could help in getting an overview of what the PID
parameters could be like and their effects on the whole system model. It is
particularly time consuming because of its trial and format. But a computational
stability rule was needed to set a mark for the trial and effect. This is done by
using the Routh-Hurwitz stability rule as shown below. Under this, emphasis
would be mainly on the PID combination.
9.2.1 The Routh-Hurwitz stability rule
From the various designs needed for this trial, a brief stability check is needed tomake the trial and error at the first instance. It would be observed that the only
design near the perfect (open-loop which is without compensation or controller)
is the PID. To have a more appropriate trial and error value, the following steps
would be followed for only the PID structure.
From the PID controller equation 9.1,

convuled with the motor model.
Keeping the KPpart, with TIand TDset to infinity and zero respectively. A
controller gain, KCcould be obtained that would sustain the oscillation output.
This value serves as the ultimate gain, KCU. For a proper oscillation, KCis set to be
less than KCU.
Assumed thefigure 9.9below with a gain of KCUand the system model:
Figure 9.3 Trial and Error PID computation diagram
By obtaining the characteristics equation of thefigure 9.9,a limiting gain could be
obtained just before sustained oscillation and this is assumed as the KCU.

Equation 9.4 becomes,
2.66 106 2 + 0.0171 + 1 + 13.11 = 0 (9.5)So for stability purposes, KCUs range of values could be obtained by using the
Routh-Hurwitz condition of stability. This is computed below:
2 2.66 106 1 + 13.11 1 0.0171 00 + . According to Routh-Hurwitz condition, the obtained characteristics equation 9.5
should be spread into column as shown above and the s0is evaluated as follows
(because it has the assumed unknown KCUwhich would be evaluated):
s0(1st row)=2.66 106 1 + 13.11 0.0171 0 1 + 13.11
s0(1st row)
= (2.66 106 0) (1 + 13.11 )(0.0171)0.0171
= 1 + 13.11 For stability sake, the 1stcolumn after the s-column must not have any sign
change (that is, no change from + to or to +). Therefore, s0(1st row), must be
greater than zero.This implied that,
1 + 13.11 > 0Then,
13.11 >1
>

13.11=

8/9/2019 Oludayo Oguntoyinbo

This implies that KCUhas its main value in the positive range. With a rough trial
and error tuning, KP, can be fixed to full value of the system model numerator,
which is 13.11. The KIand KDwere set initially to zero to see the effect of the KP
on the system. This resulted into the figure KIabout the inverse of 0.0763 =
13.106, and KD= 0.0763. After this,

system. By making an initial raw guess of the value of KPjust before applying the

The trial and error gave a reasonable level comfort but it is time consuming and
requires extra techniques to be able to have guesses that are appropriate and near
efficient.
For an overall assessment of the P, PI and PID parameters effect, the following
figure was generated for appropriate comparison effects using the
Updat edPPI PI D_Tr i al Er r or . m.

9.3 Ziegler-Nichols tuning methods
The Ziegler-Nichols method used was done based on obtaining the open loop
transfer function and thereafter obtaining the necessary parameter values needed
for the various evaluation of the P, PI and PID parameters. The steps taken
involve the files t openl oop. mused in conjunction with the openl oop. mdl
model. So, for the Ziegler-Nichols method analysis the m-file
t openl oop_zn. m was used accordingly.The open loop step response is characterized by two main parameters, the L
(delay time parameter) and T (time constant). These two parameters are computed
by drawing tangents to the open loop step response at its point of inflections
(basically two points. The inflection points are particularly done so that there
would be an intersection with the vertical (voltage axis, which correlates with the
steady-state value) and horizontal (time axis) axes.

Therefore, from thefigure 9.24, figure 9.25 andfigure 9.26, the values of the Land T could be computed as follows:
An assumed sample rate of 1000 was used for the t openl oop_zn. mplots
Point of interception of the horizontal line 4.1 (voltage = 0)Coordinate of the point of interception of the two lines (T*, K) = (42.7987,13.1101);
Where,
T
*
is horizontal trace of the interception on the tangent lines drawnL = 4.1;
K = 13.1101;
T = T* L = 4.1 = 42.7987 - 38.6987 38.70This implies that we have:
L = 0.0041;
K = 13.1101;

With the above computation, the P, PI and PID computation was done to get the
best suited parameters combination desired.
So the updated table 9.1 would be table 9.2 shown below:

Figure 9.35 PID Ziegler-Nichols tuning method Bode plot diagram
For a combined comparison of the Ziegler-Nichols tuning methods for the P, PI
and PID, a separate m-file, Updat edPPI PI D_znj . mwas created to execute
the combination and this was done over different time spans (0.01, 0.03, 0.1 and
0.3). The various outputs figures are shown in figures 9.23, 9.24, 9.25 and 9.26.

10 FOOTBALL PITCH LAYOUT MODEL
10.1 Dimensions of the Pitch
The football pitch model serves as the background for the main plot of the
trajectory path of the robot wheel. The basic dimensions (in millimetres) used are
given below and are scaled down to metres in the model plot.
Part Label Dimension (mm)
1. Length 6050
2. Width 4050
3. Centre circle (radius) 500
Table 10.1 Dimensions of the Football pitch layout model
Thefigure 10.1below shows the main target design based on theLaws of the
F180 League 2009[12]. The needed design for the thesis is the main pitch shown
in white lines.
