8 Use Cases Implementing a Model with Real-Time Interface (RTI) 3. Graphical I/O Configuration After you finish testing your model in Simulink, you need to prepare it for implementation on the real-time hardware. The plant model is replaced by I/O blocks that form the interfaces to the real controlled system. To add an I/O model, simply drag a block Design of the controller and the model of the controlled system within a MathWorks MATLAB / Simulink development environment. 1. Model Design with Simulink In this example, a block diagram shows the closed control loop of the positioning system for a hard disk drive. 2. Simulation in Simulink A signal generator block produces the reference signal, while scopes display the signals u_m and u_x. 4. Parameter Specification I/O parameters are specified by doubleclicking an I/O block and entering the data in graphical user interfaces. In this example, the input signals are the feedback value and the reference signal. The reference signal now comes from an external signal generator and is read in by an ADC block. The output signal from the controller is the control signal u_m, which is output by the hardware via a DAC block. The plant model in Simulink is replaced by I/O components. I/O parameters can be specified by double-clicking an I/O block and entering data in graphical user interfaces. 8 Use Cases

9 5. Implementation on dspace Hardware Automatic implementation of the Simulink model on dspace hardware is the key to rapid design iterations. With RTI you do not see a single line of code during this process. A single click on the Build button starts the implementation, which includes code generation, compiling, and down loading. You can select an integration algorithm and a step size in the Solver page of the Simulation Parameters dialog. Build procedures can also be automated with the help of scripts. This is especially helpful for large models. 6. Interaction with Experiment Software When the application is running on the real-time hardware, the entire dspace experiment software is at your disposal. RTI ensures that you have control over each individual variable immediately after the implementation process. ControlDesk provides a virtual instrument panel that enables you to change parameters and monitor signals without regenerating the code. ControlDesk also displays the time histories of any variable used by your application. Use Cases 9

10 Induction Motor Control In this case, an induction motor controller is developed with the DS1104. One of the board s incremental encoder interfaces picks up the motor s encoder signal, and two A/D converters are required to analyze the motor currents. The controller board calculates the control algorithm on the basis of the measured values and determines the corresponding pulse width modulation (PWM). The three-phase PWM signals are generated on the board s DSP subsystem and determine the converter s output voltage and frequency. DS1104 R&D Controller Board 6 PWM Signals Encoder Signal ib ia Ua AC Frequency Converter Ub Uc 3 Controller Optimization with MLIB/MTRACE In this example, a MATLAB M file optimizes the step response of a closed-loop system by modifying the controller s proportional gain K P. The ITAE criterion (integral timeweighted absolute error) is used as a cost function. This criterion compares the control signal with the reference signal and computes a new proportional gain so that the difference between the control and the reference signal is minimized. The M file performs several loops to find the optimum K P. Various functions are called in each loop. The MLIB/MTRACE functions capture the control and reference signals and load this data to the MATLAB workspace. MATLAB then computes the ITAE value and the new optimized K P and plots the result. Finally, MLIB/MTRACE writes the new K P back to the processor memory. 10 Use Cases

11 Robotics In this example, the controller board replaces the position controller. The easy programmability of the DS1103 enables you to implement and test different control algorithms very quickly, which reduces design iteration times to a minimum. The prototyping hardware allows easy para meter changing and modification. No hardware setup changes are necessary. The real-time system picks up the robot s six incremental encoder signals to determine the current robot position. This data is then compared with the reference values. Afterwards, the DS1103 calculates the control algorithm and sends the controller output like data on positions and velocities back to the robot. Bypass-Based Prototyping In bypass-based prototyping, existing ECUs are optimized or partially revised to obtain a new control strategy. In this example, an automotive ECU is connected to MicroAuto- Box via the ECU interface. The original ECU executes all the functions that will remain unchanged, while the new algorithms are calculated in MicroAutoBox. The necessary input data and results are exchanged between MicroAutoBox and the original ECU. If your existing ECU has all the features necessary for I/O, you will only need the ECU interface of MicroAutoBox and all the I/O will run via the ECU. If you want to integrate new or additional I/O devices, you can use MicroAuto Box I/O devices. Additional I/O Existing ECU I/O Use Cases 11

19 Automotive Simulation Models Open MATLAB /Simulink models Real-time and offline simulation Virtual vehicle simulations with engine, drivetrain, and vehicle dynamics Turn-key solution with dspace Simulator The Automotive Simulation Models (ASMs) are open Simulink models for the realtime simulation of standard automotive applications like diesel engine, gasoline engines and vehicle dynamics. The models will typically be used on a dspace Simulator for hardware-in-the-loop testing of electronic control units (ECUs) or during the design phase of controller algorithms for early validation by offline simulation. They are complete and independent models that support all the relevant phases of the model-based development process. All the Simulink blocks in the models are visible, so it is easy to add or replace components with custom models to adapt the properties of modeled components perfectly to individual requirements. The ASMs standardized interfaces make it easy to expand a single model such as an engine or body, or even create a whole virtual vehicle. Roads and driving maneuvers can be easily and intuitively created using graphical tools with preview and clear visualization. Software 19

26 RapidPro Scalable, modular and configurable system architecture Compact and robust enclosure For in-vehicle, laboratory and test bench use Comprehensive software support Application-specific configurations for common application areas such as engine or chassis control The RapidPro hardware works as an extension to dspace prototyping systems (MicroAuto Box/ modular DS1005-based system). With their compact and robust mechanical design, the units are ideally suited for in-vehicle use, and can also be used on test benches and in laboratories. The enclosure is designed so that you can use the units separately or connect several of them to build a stack for use as one physical unit. Off-the-shelf hardware- and softwareconfigurable signal conditioning (SC) and power stage (PS) modules can be installed in the RapidPro units to set up individual systems that optimally fit the needs of a particular application. Customer-specific modules are available on request. The modular concept, using modules that are hardware- and software-configurable, means that all components can be reused, reconfigured, or extended, for example in later projects or if requirements change, with a minimum of effort. In either case, the RapidPro hardware fits perfectly into your dspace tool chain. Several RapidPro units can be connected for use as one physical unit. RapidPro modules can be easily installed in and removed from the units. 26 Hardware

27 Application-Specific Configurations Engine control configuration: for combustion engines with up to six cylinders to develop new combustion processes, for example Body electronics configuration: for typical body electronics systems with a large number of digital inputs and outputs Chassis control configuration: for vehicle dynamics systems with connection options for typical sensors for acceleration, wheel speed, vehicle inclination, etc. Transmission control configuration: for new transmission functions with flexible power stages for valve or DC motor control E-motor control configuration: as a flexible power stage for a variety of electric motors in the prototyping phase RapidPro s predefined configurations cover a wide range of typical signal conditioning and power stage tasks in various application areas. For example, the configurations for engine control prototyping let you run engines with up to 6 cylinders and all modern sensors and actuators, and the configuration for electric motor control serves as a flexible inverter stage during the prototype phase of diverse AC electric motors. Each configuration consists of selected RapidPro power and signal conditioning modules installed in the corresponding number of RapidPro units. A Control Unit is used whenever complex I/O signals need to be captured or generated, or a large number of I/O signals are involved. dspace also provides dedicated Simulink startup models for the configurations. These include all the available I/O signals which are already configured in corresponding tasks (e.g. angle-synchronous tasks for engine control). This enables a fast startup and lets you concentrate fully on your primary task of developing control algorithms for your application. If your specific I/O requirements differ from the setups, this is no problem at all. You can adapt one of the ready-made configurations or build a new RapidPro system from scratch. Either way, RapidPro will help you solve your specific signal conditioning and power stage task. Hardware 27
