Abstract
A system for controlling a separately excited dc motor, where control is achieved through a microprocessor-based independent PWM control of a chopper (armature) and an H-bridge (field), and where mechanical speed sensors are not used. Connected to the armature is an armature voltage amplifier for varying the applied armature voltage. A field current amplifier is also provided for determining the direction of motor rotation and varying the voltage applied to the field winding. A decoupling controller adjusts the armature voltage and the field current.
