Abstract

The control of an inverted pendulum is a well-known and a challenging problem that serves as a popular benchmark in modern control system studies. The inverted pendulum consists of a rigid link attached to a pivot arm. The arm must move in the horizontal plane in such a way as to keep the pendulum in an upright position. This is similar to the classic pendulum mounted on a cart which must move in such a way as to keep the pendulum in an upright position. This paper presents a stabilizing controller designed based on pole placement technique to keep the pendulum arm in the up position inside. Simulation results show that the controller is effective enough to keep the pendulum in up-right position.
