PID-type fuzzy logic controller tuning based on particle swarm optimization

摘要

In this paper, a new PID-type fuzzy logic controller (FLC) tuning strategy is proposed using a particle swarm optimization (PSO) approach. In order to improve further the performance and robustness properties of the proposed PID-fuzzy approach, two self-tuning mechanisms are introduced. The scaling factors tuning problem of these PID-type FLC structures is formulated and systematically resolved, using a proposed constrained PSO algorithm. The case of an electrical DC drive benchmark is investigated, within a developed real-time framework, to illustrate the efficiency and superiority of the proposed PSO-based fuzzy control approaches. Simulation and experimental results show the advantages of the designed PSO-tuned PID-type FLC structures in terms of efficiency and robustness.
