Abstract
The automobile cruise control system tries to maintain a constant velocity in the face of disturbance mainly caused by mass changes or changes in the slope of a road. The controller should compensate for such disturbances and model uncertainties. In this paper, we study on the disturbance observer based controller for cruise control system. In the presence of disturbances and model uncertainties, we carry out computer simulations in order to compare the performance of the conventional PI controller and DOB controller. From the simulation results, we found that the performance of DOB controller is superior to that of the conventional PI controller.
