Design and implementation of an H∞ controller for a micropermanent- magnet synchronous motor position control system is proposed. The diameter of the micromotor is only 6 mm. In addition, the weighting functions of the H∞ controller are selected using the genetic algorithms. A state-space H∞ controller, obtained using a systematic design procedure, is incorporated in a closed-loop position control micromotor system. The system has good performance, including fast transient responses and good load disturbance rejection responses, although its encoder is only 100 pulses/revolution. A digital signal processor, TMS320F2407, is used to execute the position control algorithms. Experimental results validate the theoretical analysis and show the correctness and feasibility of the proposed method. An advanced controller design is proposed for a micromotor.
