Abstract :
Controllers designed using linear quadratic regulator (LQR) theory and sliding mode control (SMC) methodology are implemented separately in real time to a twin tank laboratory setup to track a reference liquid level. The performances of the two controllers once again establish the robustness attributes of the SMC over LQR.
