Proportional Control Block Analysis

• Set Point: Zone to maintain (Zone 2)

• Detect Current distance

• Zone 4

• Summing Junction

• Error= Set Point – Current distance
• 2 – 4 = -2

• Operator block

• (Multiply error by proportional constant (kp)

• Output Adjust = Constant x error
• -2*35 = -70

• Summing Junction

• Output Adjust + 750 = 680

• Pulse new value to right servo

• THUS BOE BOT WILL SPEED UP, AND UPDATE STATUS AGAIN

• THE CORRECTION WILL ALWAYS BE PROPORTIONAL TO THE ERROR “PROPORTIONAL CONTROL”
