This paper presents an exercise in applying the bacterial foraging algorithm (BFA) optimisation method on a proportional—integral-derivative controller (PID) of a DC motor circuit. The paper presents the system description of the DC motor transfer function and the simulation of the close loop system using MATLAB. The BFA algorithm is described and discussed with the simulation results presented to illustrate the enhancement of the system response that in result enhances the operation of the DC motor system.

Bacterial foraging algorithm (BFA) is a population-based stochastic search technique for solving various scientific and engineering problems. However, it is inefficient in some practical situations. In order to improve the performance of the BFA, we propose a novel optimization algorithm, named quantum inspired bacterial foraging algorithm (QBFA), which applies several quantum computing principles, and a new mechanism is proposed to encode and observe the population. The algorithm has been evaluated on the standard high-dimensional benchmark functions in comparison with GA, PSO, GSO and FBSA, respectively. The proposed algorithm is then used to tune a PID controller of an automatic voltage regulator (AVR) system. Simulation results clearly illustrate that the proposed approach is very efficient and could be easily extended to 300 or higher-dimensional problems.

Bacterial Foraging Algorithm

<p><em>Fish robot precision depends on a variety of factors including the precision of motion sensors, mobility of links, elasticity of fish robot actuators system, and the precision of controllers. Among these factors, precision and efficiency of controllers play a key role in fish robot precision.  In the present paper, a robot fish has been designed with dynamics and swimming mechanism of a real fish. According to equations of motion, this fish robot is designed with 3 hinged links. Subsequently, its control system was defined based on the same equations. In this paper, an approach is suggested to control fish robot trajectory using optimized PID controller through Bacterial Foraging algorithm, so as to adjust the gains. Then, this controller is compared to the powerful Fuzzy controller and optimized PID controller through PSO algorithm when applying step and sine inputs. The research findings revealed that optimized PID controller through Bacterial Foraging Algorithm had better performance than other approaches in terms of decreasing of the settling time, reduction of the maximum overshoot and desired steady state error in response to step input. Efficiency of the suggested method has been analyzed by MATLAB software.</em></p>
