5.11.1 Position Loop Compensator
5.11.1.1 PI Compensator
The outer most loop is the position loop. Two options exist for the position compensator. These are a PI
compensator; or a Time-optimal compensator.
The PI compensator has a structure as shown in the diagram below: -

Figure 5.5 : Position Loop PI Compensator Structure
The output of the compensator is limited to motvelliminc, a term derived from the motor_max_velocity (1085)
parameter. The compensator also implements anti-windup for the compensator’s integrator. The PI compensator
has the gains as listed below.

5.11.1.2 Time-Optimal Compensator
The time-optimal compensator is a non-linear compensator that uses a square root function of the position error,
to give optimal deceleration performance.
The position error is scaled by parameter thermal_limit_factor (1397) to give a scaled position error (i.e.
thermal_limit_factor is 1 when no limiting, <1 when limiting),. Dependent on the size (i.e. absolute) of this scaled
position error, the output of the compensator will have a linear relationship to the scaled position error, for small
position errors, OR will have a square root relationship for larger errors. The cut-off point between the linear and
square root relationship depends on Ka / (Kp

).
