For speed control, the derivative term represents acceleration. Acceleration is
hard to estimate with acceptable noise, so that the inclusion of the D term in
speed controllers is impractical. We therefore use the PI (PID without the D) form
for speed controllers. To summarize, for PI controllers we use

B.4.3.2

The High Order Filter

The PI/PID controllers by themselves are fine for many applications, but they
have the following limitations:

They cannot notch out resonance.
They have poor high frequency measurement noise attenuation.
They have limited ability to add extra phase compensation, as required by

plants with a large mismatch between the inertias of the motor and the load.

The SimplIQ controller structure includes, in addition to the PI/PID controller, a
freely parameterized high-order (up to 8th order) linear filter to overcome the
PI/PID limitations. The resulting structure is:

KP[2]+KI[2]/s
