Fuzzy Algorithms for Fractional PID Control Systems

Abstract

This article investigates the use of fuzzy algorithms for fractional PID control systems. The tuning of the fuzzy controllers is based on the prior knowledge of integer or fractional-order control strategy. The suggested fuzzy controllers are fine tuned using a genetic algorithm (GA). The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed methodology is illustrated through its application on the control of a fractional-order plant. The simulation results show the better performance of nonlinear fuzzy algorithms of fractional-order.
