Abstract:
In this lab, we're trying to find
a way to control a Magnetic
Levitation system more
effectively. We use a method
called exact input-output
feedback linearization. First,
we make a simple and a more
detailed model of the system.
Then, we come up with a
control plan to keep the
system stable.
Keywords:
 Linearization
 Open loop
 Close Loop
 PID Controller
Introduction:
The Magnetic Levitation
system, a nonlinear, open-
loop unstable system, is
widely used in industries
like high-speed trains and
frictionless bearings.
Significant research has
focused on advancing this
field, exploring linear and
nonlinear control
algorithm designs.
Initially, nonlinear
mathematical modeling is
conducted, followed by
linearization and
simulation in Simulink for
both linear and nonlinear
systems.
Mathematical Modeling:
So linearizing the nonlinear system we obtain the linear system and
obtain the following transfer function.
𝐺(𝑠) = -a/-b+m*𝑠2

Equation for ℎ′′ as follow:

ℎ ′′ = 𝑔 −𝑘/𝑚 ∗(𝑖2/ h2 )
