Analysis of an improved Single Input Fuzzy Logic Controller designed for depth control using Microbox 2000/2000c interfacing

Abstract

This paper describes an analysis of an improved designed of Single Input Fuzzy Logic Controller (SIFLC) for depth control using Microbox 2000/2000C interfacing. The analysis based on the model of an unmanned underwater platform that called Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV). This ROV modeling obtained using a MATLAB system identification toolbox on open loop depth control experiment by Underwater Technology Research Group (UTeRG). Microbox 2000/2000C is an XPC target machine device used to interface between an ROV with the MATLAB 2009 software. An improved design for SIFLC based on two parameters that is a distance, d, and its control surface for SIFLC using the linear equation technique will be discussed. Newly technique called An improved Single Input Fuzzy Logic Controller (an improved SIFLC) design for underwater Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) also described and will be implemented to simplify the complexity of the system in real time. The optimum parameter for SIFLC tuned using optimization technique. The implementation phase will be verified through MATLAB SIMULINK platform and real time experiment.
