Control of open-loop unstable processes with time delay using PI/PID controllers specified using tuning rules: an outline survey

The ability of PI and PID controllers to compensate many practical processes has led to their wide acceptance in industrial applications. The requirement to choose two or three controller parameters is conveniently done using tuning rules. Starting with a general discussion of industrial practice, the paper provides a survey of tuning rules for continuous- time PI and PID control of open-loop unstable time-delayed single-input, single-output (SISO) processes.
