Design of Adaptive Fuzzy PID Controller for Electropneumatic System
The purpose of the study is to develop an adaptive electropneumatic automatic system based on the classical PID controller using modern technology for controlling like fuzzy controlling. The need of an adaptive setting occurred because of the fact that the classic controller has high sensitivity towards interferences with the main signal and the need for the parameters to be regulated often and be done by hand. Another reason is the inability to provide optimal parameters for the controller for nonlinear processes and changes of the parameters in time. In this article the work of electropneumatic system with linear actuator, is examined. A mathematical model describing the dynamics of the processes, is developed. An adaptive fuzzy PID controller with variable coefficients is synthesized. The system is studied in the environment of Matlab Simulink. The transient processes in the system are compared to processes where the classical PID controller. The results are presented in graphical form.
