Replication Data for: Model Predictive Position Control for Electrically Preloaded Rack-and-Pinion Drives

The paper presents a cascaded model predictive control approach to increase the accuracy and dynamics of an electrically preloaded rack-and-pinion drive. Three different internal models for the model predictive controller, each with a different model order, are investigated and compared.

The proposed control approach is validated in real-time on a test bench, and experimental results show improved position control in comparison to a standard proportional controller with feedforward control. This dataset is structured accoring to the figures with experimental results in the paper: data_Fig4: Data for the frequency response of the closed loop velocity controlled plant with the approximated models. data_Fig5: Data for the frequency response of the closed loop transfer function for the controllers compared. data_Fig6: Data for the comparison of the cascaded controllers. data_Fig7: Data for the comparison of the disturbance rejection behavior.
