On the Modeling and Simulation of Anti-Windup Proportional-Integral Controller (2005.05430v1)

Abstract: This paper investigates the chattering and deadlock behaviors of the proportional-integral (PI) controller with an anti-windup (AW) limiter recommended by the IEEE Standard 421.5-2016. Depending on the simulation method, the controller may enter a chattering or deadlock state in some combinations of parameters and inputs. Chattering and deadlock are analyzed in the context of three numerical integration approaches: explicit partitioned method (EPM), execution-list based method (ELM), and implicit trapezoidal method (ITM). This paper derives the chattering stop condition for EPM and ELP, and analyzes the impacts of step size and convergence tolerance for simultaneous method. The deduced chattering stop conditions and deadlock behavior is verified with numerical simulations.
