Abstract
Optimal PID Controller Design for Speed Control of a Separately Excited DC Motor: A Firefly Based Optimization Approach
Highlights
Direct-current (DC) motors find applications in electrical equipments, computer peripherals, robotic manipulators etc due to its excellent speed control characteristics
The main objective of this paper is to present an effectiveness of Firefly algorithm (FFA) in designing an optimal PID controller for speed control of separately excited DC motor
It is comprehended from the study that the FFA provides a better and fast response in terms of time domain specifications like rise time, settling time, peak time as compared to the Linear quadratic regulator (LQR) technique
Summary
Direct-current (DC) motors find applications in electrical equipments, computer peripherals, robotic manipulators etc due to its excellent speed control characteristics. The speed control of DC motor attracts the attention of researchers till date as a notable task. The conventional proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers had been used as a control strategy for various industrial processes and motor control applications. Long time and effort is required to tune controller parameters using Ziegler-Nichols frequency response method. In spite of the simple structure and robustness of PID control strategy, optiming the gains of PID controller is still a difficult task. The Linear quadratic regulator (LQR) method is another method used for this purpose.
