Improving A PID Controller Using Fuzzy Logic Andrew Thompson Ni Li Ara Tchobanian Professor: Riadh Habash TA: Hanliu Chen

Problem Although PID controllers are able to provide adequate control for simple systems, they are unable to compensate for disturbances. We will use Fuzzy Logic controllers to improve the PID controllers ability to handle disturbances.

Hypothesis We feel like all the designs for the fuzzy compensator will be an improvement upon the PID controller and will have greater ability to deal with disturbances.

Procedure We first needed to decide upon a system which we could control using a PID controller as well as be able to introduce a disturbance. We chose to model a basic DC motor.

DC Motor We used the following values for the model of the DC Motor moment of inertia of the rotor J = 0.01 kg.m 2 /s 2 damping ratio of the mechanical system b = 0.1 Nms electromotive force constant K = 0.01 Nm/Amp electric resistance R = 1 ohm electric inductance L = 0.5 H input V: Source Voltage output Θ’: Speed of motor

DC Motor Model

Step 2 We next had to design a PID controller to control the speed of the motor.

PID Controller We wanted the PID controller to satisfy the following criteria: –Settling time less than 2 seconds –Overshoot less than 5% –Steady-state error less than 1% By using trial and error, and examining the step response we obtained the following gains: Kp = 100, Ki = 200, Kd = 10

PID Model

Step 3 The final step in the development of our controllers was to design various forms Fuzzy logic compensators in order to improve the performance of the PID controller and to allow it to account for the disturbance. We designed three types of Fuzzy logic Compensators –Fuzzy PI –Fuzzy PD –Fuzzy Precompensated

Fuzzy logic Introduction Fuzzy logic is a problem-solving control system methodology that lends itself to implementation in systems ranging from simple, small, embedded micro- controllers to large, networked, multi-channel PC or workstation-based data acquisition and control systems. It can be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of both. Inputs Rules Output
