Phase-Lead Compensation of a Rotational Rigid-Body
System
Objectives
- Use frequency domain techniques to design a phase-lead
compensator for a rigid, rotational disk.
Pre-Lab
- Derive the equations of motion for the 1DOF rotational system that you will control in this lab. The plant configuration is shown below. The disk will be loaded with four

- Design and simulate a phase-lead compensator that satisfies
the following performance specifications:

Lab Procedure
- Configure the plant for this experiment.
- Code your phase-lead compensator into the control loop
VI.
- Perform a 3000 count step input, and save the plot.
- Perform a ramp input with a velocity of 1000 counts/second
and a dwell time of 3 seconds. Save the plot.
Post-Lab
- What was the system's steady-state error to the ramp input?
What would you expect it to be for a parabolic input?
- Explain how gain margin and phase margin relate to a system's
stability.
