The exegesis of the control of Magnetic Levitation (maglev) system is a challenging problem and many control techniques have been tested on this benchmark problem to test the efficiency of the proposed control law. An attempt has been made in the present paper to stabilize the maglev system by designing a PID controller first by using ‘PID tuner’ tool in Matlab and then by using the Pole-Placement Technique (PPT).
