Abstract:
Abstract— The proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller is tuned to find its parameters values. Generally most of the tuning
methods depend mainly on the experimental approach of open-loop unit step response. The controller parameters can be found if the
system truly can be approximated by First Order Plus-Dead Time (FOPDT). The performance of most of them deteriorates as the ratio of
approximated equivalent delay L to the overall time constant T changes. On the other hand fuzzy PID controller is not tuned through the
same conventional tuning procedures. It’s constructed as a set of control rules and the control signal is directly deduced fr om the
knowledge base and the fuzzy inference. Fuzzy controller parameters tuned by starting from the equivalent values obtained for optimum
controller. The performances of different PID tuning techniques are simulated for different order systems and compared wi th fuzzy-PD+I
controller. MATLAB simulation results show that Fuzzy PD+I have better performances over other conventional PID controllers.
