CL Second Order Low Pass Filter

CL Second Order Low Pass Filter

Owning Palette:Continuous

Requirements:Quanser Rapid Control Prototyping Toolkit, LabVIEW 2020 or newer, Control Design and Simulation Module


Description

Models, in the continuous-time domain, a second-order low-pass filter characterized by a cut-off frequency and a damping ratio.


Outputs

y

y is the (filtered) output signal from the second-order low-pass filter.

yd

yd is the time-derivative of the output signal from the second-order low-pass filter.


Details

The CL Second Order Low Pass Filter VI models, in the continuous-time domain, a second-order low-pass filter characterized by a cut-off frequency and a damping ratio. The filtered output is always continuous even after any parameter change (e.g., cut-off frequency and/or damping ratio).

The block diagram for this VI is shown below:

where ωn is the cut-off frequency and ζ is the damping ratio.

When using the CL Second Order Low Pass Filter VI, ensure the Simulation Parameters of the Control & Simulation Loop are set correctly for proper time step integration. Specifically, the chosen Initial Step Size (s) should be fast enough for the desired ODE Solver method. Furthermore, the Initial Step Size (s) should be also chosen so that it can accommodate the cut-off frequency (or range of cut-off frequency values) to be used by the VI.


Feedthrough Behaviour

All input/output pairs of this function have direct feedthrough behaviour.
