Abstract

In this paper, a suspension control of a magnetic levitation(MagLev) system with flexible rail is designed and presented. The numerical modelling for the electromagnetic system to be controlled as a target plant is carried out. And dome kinds of the hardware system including CPU board, AD board, DA board, sensors, and switching power amplifier are described. Using the derived model, the stabilizing controllers, such as PID and $H_{\infty}$ controller, for the MagLev system are designed using the MATLAB toolbox. The designed controllers are validated by some experimental results as well as numerical simulations. So it is shown that $H_{\infty}$ controller can give the better performance for the plant with flexible modes than PID controller.
