In this paper, comparative performance analysis of various binary coded PSO algorithms on optimal PI and PID controller design for multiple inputs multiple outputs (MIMO) process is stated. Four algorithms such as modified particle swarm optimization (MPSO), discrete binary PSO (DBPSO), modified discrete binary PSO (MBPSO) and probability based binary PSO (PBPSO) are independently realized usin...

The future is for sustainable energy (SE) sources [1, 2]. However, to utilize SE sources efficiently one needs to integrate them into the AC Power-Grid. To do so, interface electronic circuits are needed to connect SE sources to local loads or directly to the utility grid. These interfaces are known as the SE-Grid inverters. SE-Grid inverters convert direct current (DC) to alternating current (...

many real time processes have complex, uncertain and nonlinear dynamics. boilers are nonlinear, time varying, multi-input multi-output (mimo) systems, whose states generally vary with operating conditions. the major problem in controlling that system is that its drum water pressure and steam flow dynamics include an integrator that results a critically stable behavior. conventional controller p...

Abstract—This article deals with a performance evaluation of particle swarm optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithms (GA) for fixed order controller design. The major objective of the work is to compare the ability, computational effectiveness and efficiency to solve the optimization problem for both algorithms (PSO and GA). All simulation has been performed using a software program developed ...

Output noise is strongly related to input in closed-loop control system, which makes model identification of closed-loop difficult, even unidentified in practice. The forward channel model is chosen to isolate disturbance from the output noise to input, and identified by optimization the dynamic characteristics of the process based on closed-loop operation data. The characteristics parameters o...

In the recent years, development of industry cause to increase nonlinear and time variant loads in power systems. These loads bring about power quality phenomena such as voltage and current harmonics, current unbalance and flicker in power systems. In this paper, an optimal method for active power filter is proposed to improve power quality. The control system of APF is based on combination of ...

This paper presents a new optimization algorithm to design an optimal proportional, integral, derivative (PID) controller in hydro-turbine generator governor for damping output frequency oscillations. In this research, we utilize a stochastic and optimal based PID controller to control frequency-response of the hydro turbine. The proposed algorithm is employed to design an optimal PID controlle...
