The first one is the design of a state observer. A velocity estimator is proposed based on measurements of current. If the effect of the noise is minimized, the angular position can be achieved through a cascade structure between a particular velocity estimator and an inversion of the electrical system. This approach allows us to avoid a more complex structure for the observer, and yields an acceptable performance and the elimination of bulky position sensor systems. The elimination of the position sensor system simplifies the production system of the valve.

This paper presents feasible real-time self-tuning of an approximated proportional derivative (PD) regulator, which compensates for the tracking error caused by inexact feedback linearization. It is interesting to note that the structure of the approximated PD regulator is similar to the velocity estimator. Robustness in the proposed loop control is achieved.
