DESIGN OF TUNING METHODS OF PID CONTROLLER USING FUZZY LOGIC

The purpose of this project tries to explore the potential of using soft computing methodology in controllers and their advantages over conventional methods. PID controller is mostly used for industrial applications. There are various systems for the designing of PID controller and it is used to control the different parameters like settling time, rise time, overshoot, peak gain and phase margin, stability etc of the plant. The conventional PID controller is not very efficient due to the presence of non linearity in the system of the plant and also it has a quite high overshoot and settling time. The main focus of this project is to apply soft computing technique that is fuzzy logic to design and tuning of PID controller to get better dynamic and static performance at the output. This project also discusses the benefits the soft computing methods.
