How to calculate the ramp signal values and then when i am using First order low pass filter in a Position Sensor. The system is used to control the directional valve connected with a piston Cylinder. I am also interested in calculating K values of Gain.
I dont know how to do them. I know its a control problem. Please direct me...
Thanks.

This looks like something for school. For such rather simple systems, you really don't need to do much calculation. Just piece it together, make it work and then make it work optimally by adjusting the available parameters.

I like your approach not asking us to 'solve' your problem. But, since this is EngTips, I'm afraid you will have to do more work on your own before we can 'tip' you about the details. Good luck, though.

The issue is I need to control the gain values and the ramp signal so that I can close the piston in different time durations, such as 2 sec, 5 sec and so on. And analyse the different pressures that come up in the hoses. Well I am unsure of how to achieve this. I need to know where to look for the solutions. To do more work where should i look into. I have read some books like, Hydraulic control Systems ed.2 but unfortunately I cant find how to optimize or how to even calculate the Ramp. I know I have to use the Low pass filter with 20ms time delay. Please give an idea.
Thanks.
 
Somewhat. But there's a control Forum also.

Can you tell me which forum this is appropriate for. I cant seem to find...
