a. Did Altex need a new system? (What are the most critical problems facing Altex at the takeover? what does Ted see as the purpose of a control system? Did Altex meet their objectives?) Yes‚ Altex really need a new system‚ because Altex is facing some critical problems at the takeover by Ted and Franck. The first most critical problem is the actual management system: the system in place was one accountant (Sarah Arthur) who kept everything in her head. The system was incomprehensible and complicated

2. Dual-loop Control of a Grid-Connected Inverter In this section‚ the modeling and control of a grid-connected inverter with dual-loop control using the capacitor current feedback is described. Although‚ this issue has already been addressed in available literatures‚ the goal is introducing a simplified block diagram which make designing controllers easier. A grid-connected inverter with the LCL filter is shown in Fig. 1. The LCL filter consists of an inverter-side inductor L1‚ a filter capacitor

Autonomous Control Autonomous control is used in the mechanics of many machines we use today‚ Autonomous control is basically a self-controlling program installed into a machine that allows the machine to move by itself based on the surroundings. The program installed into the machine asses the surroundings with its sensors and makes a decision on the movement of the autonomously controlled unit. The word autonomous means self-governing‚ this means it can make decisions by themselves‚ with this

I will be using aeroquad-s flight control software as a reference point (mostly because it works great and its one of the most used open source flight controllers out there). My flight controller implementation is based on a MK20DX128 chip (found in Teensy 3.0 dev board)‚ there is also an "older" outdated implementation of simple flight controller for ATmega328 (found in many Arduino boards‚ for this implementation i was using Arduino Nano).
