  • A unity feedback servomotor actuated parabolic dish antenna system was modeled, and two different types of controllers were designed for the system using; Ziegler-Nichols and Quadratic Optimal Regulator methods for the close loop operation of the system. Their responses were simulated using the software package MATLAB 7.1. Simulation results showed that each of the controllers greatly improved the system response. Best system responses were obtained via the Quadratic Optimal Regulator method.
