Abstract

A two-degree of freedom control system that is most frequently encountered in practice is the so-called Internal Model Control (IMC) structure. However, the design procedure of such a structure does not present an easy task, which implies a limited utility of IMC. In this paper two alternative solutions are proposed that may be lumped together as Model-Following Control (MFC). These are two-loop control systems being easy to implement and offering interesting properties. Theoretical assumptions have been verified experimentally on a two-joint robot manipulator. Both qualitative and quantitative results yielded by experiments are presented and discussed.
