This paper presents the speed control of a DC series motor supplied by Photovoltaic (PV) system. The proposed design problem of speed controller is formulated as an optimization problem. Bacteria Foraging Optimization Algorithm (BFOA) is employed to search for optimal Proportional Integral (PI) parameters of speed controller by minimizing the time domain objective function. The performance of t...

Problem statement: While classical PID controllers are sensitive to variations in the system parameters, Fuzzy controllers do not need precise information about the system variables in order to be effective. However, PID controllers are better able to control and minimize the steady state error of the system. To enhance the controller performance, hybridization of these two controller structure...

In this paper we investigate optimal pid control of a double integrating plus delay process and compare with the simc rules. What makes the double integrating process special is that derivative action is actually necessary for stabilization. In control, there is generally a trade-off between performance and robustness, so there does not exist a single optimal controller. However, for a given ro...

In recent years, power quality has become almost as important in the renewable energy sector. Much of today's research is focused on resolving issues. These issues are related to a voltage (sags, swells, distortions, and imbalances), system response speed, harmonics, ripples, Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). Many researchers have recently been working various controllers address articles pri...

It's not easy to implement the mixed / optimal controller for high order system, since in the conventional mixed / optimal feedback the order of the controller is much than that of the plant. This difficulty had been solved by using the structured specified PID controller. The merit of PID controllers comes from its simple structure, and can meets the industry processes. Also it have some kind ...

This paper presents an approach where the Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is employed to get optimum PID controller parameters to control of a SCARA robot. PSO is an evolutionary technique which is originated from swarm intelligence. A practical application of the PSO-PID controller is performed with the system dynamics. A simulation study is also included with the proposed controller by usin...

Controller designing for various day to day practical processes has been a challenging task for designers. Several issues such as stability, steady state error, effect of parameter variations and speed etc. must be considered for designing a controller. In this communication, an arbitrarily underdamped second order plant is implemented which has highly oscillatory response. Then a PID controlle...

The intelligent control technology with the traditional control theory formats intelligent compound controller in order to learn from each other and improve the overall advantage of complementary features. Fuzzy PID control neuron PID control, fuzzy sliding mode control, and optimal control of the neural network. This paper discusses the current situation and development of smart composite cont...

In this study, trajectory control of the Variable Loaded Servo (VLS) system is performed by using a Fuzzy Logic based Iterative Learning Control (ILC) method. In the study, a Iterative Learning PID (IL-PID) Controller is used as the iterative learning control structure. Also, a fuzzy adjustment mechanism has been added to the control system for specify the initial parameter of the IL-PID contro...

This paper presents the optimal operation of a photovoltaic pumping system. The operation of a permanent magnet brushless DC motor driving a centrifugal pump is investigated. The motor is controlled through a hysteresis current loop and an outer speed loop with a PI type controller. The proportional and integral gains are set to their optimal values. In order to optimise the overall system effi...
