Mobility of an indoor wheeled robot is affected by adhesion force that is related to various floor conditions. When the adhesion force between driving wheels and floor decreases suddenly, the robot begins slip. In order to overcome this slip problem, optimal slip velocity must be decided for stable movement of wheeled robot. First of all, this paper shows that conventional PI control can not be applied to a wheeled robot of the light weight. Secondly, proposed fuzzy logic is applied to the Takagi-Sugeno model for the configuration of fuzzy sets. For the design of Takagi-Sugeno model and fuzzy rule, proposed algorithm uses FCM(Fuzzy c-mean clustering method) algorithm. The proposed fuzzy logic controller(FLC) is pretty useful with prevention of the slip phenomena for the controller performance in the re-adhesion control strategy.

This paper proposes a fuzzy logic controller(FLC) for DC-DC converters in order to obtain good l perfonnances that can not be achieved by linear control tc'Chniques in the presence of wide parameter v variations. 'While the standard controller uses error and derivative of e$\pi$or, the proposed controller uses state v variables. Such method is ve$\pi$ efficient in case of DC-DC converters and can guarantee both stable s small-signal responses and improved large signal responses. The presented approach method is general and c can be applied to any dc-dc converter topologies. Through the simulations of booster, we verify the pro[Xlsed C control tc'Chnique can give a satisfactory perfonnance.

This paper proposes a novel maximum power point tracking (MPPT) system using a fuzzy logic control (FLC) algorithm for robust in-environment changing. The power available at the output of a photovoltaic (PV) cell continues to change with radiation and temperature because a solar cell exhibits nonlinear current-voltage characteristics. Therefore, the maximum power point (MPP) of PV cells varies with radiation and temperature. The MPPT methods are used in PV systems to make full utilization of the PV array output power, which depends on radiation and temperature. The conventional MPPT control methods such as constant voltage (CV), perturbation and observation (PO) and incremental conductance (IC) have been studied but these methods are problematic in that they fail to take into account the changing environment. The proposed FLC controller is based on the fuzzy control algorithm and facilitates robust control with the environmental changes. Also, the PV systems applied FLC controller is modeled by PSIM and the response characteristics of the FLC method according to environmental variations are analyzed through comparison with the performance of conventional methods. The validity of this controller is shown through response results.

To date, many viable smart base isolation systems have been proposed and investigated. In this study, a novel friction pendulum system (FPS) and an MR damper are employed as the isolator and supplemental damping device, respectively, of the smart base isolation system. A fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is used to modulate the MR damper because the FLC has an inherent robustness and ability to handle non linearities and uncertainties. A genetic algorithm (GA) is used for optimization of the FLC. The main purpose of employing a GA is to determine appropriate fuzzy control rules as well to adjust parameters of the membership functions. To this end, a GA with a local improvement mechanism is applied. This method is efficient in improving local portions of chromosomes. Neuro fuzzy models are used to represent dynamic behavior of the MR damper and FPS. Effectiveness of the proposed method for optimal design of the FLC is judged based on computed responses to several historical earthquakes. It has been shown that the proposed method can find optimal fuzzy rules and the GA optimized FLC outperforms not only a passive control strategy but also a human designed FLC and a conventional semi active control algorithm.

At the on-line control method FLC(Fuzzy Logic Controller) is stronger to the disturbance than a classical controller and its overshoot of the initialized value is excellent. The fuzzy controller can do a proper control, though it doesn't know the mathematical model of the system or the parameter value. But to make the control rule of the fuzzy controller through an expert's experiance has a changes of the control system, the control rule is fixed, it can't adjust to the environment changes of the control system, the controller output value has a minute error and it can't convergence correctly to the desired value[1][2]. There are many ways to eliminate the minute error[3][4][5], but in this paper suggests EP-FNNIC(Fuzzy Neurla Network Intelligence Controller) intelligence controller which combines FLC with NN(Neural Network) and EP(Evolution Programming). The output characteristics of EP-FNNIC controller will be compared and analyzed with FLC. It will be showed that this EP-FN IC controller converge correctly to the desirable value without any error. The convergence speed, overshoot, rising time, error of steady state of controller of these two kinds also will be compared.

Automatic control has been for the most part applied to linear systems where ti can be approximately formalized. In case that it is not definitely established the mathematical modelling to control objects, it requires manual control strategies which put under the human rule. In this paper, it constructs an FLC (Fuzzy Logic Controller) in order to turn a hand control into an automatic control in the domain of swimming pool that has been almost absolutely dependant on a skilled worker's experience. Genetic algorithms upgrade the knowledge which is acquired from human expert, using by FLC, so as to maintain knowledge in the very optimal way. It also designs an algorithm that modifies the rule base and the membership function at the same time, and ultimately will show that it can get better result than human controllers.

More fuzzy hardware are expected to be utilized in the future to construct fuzzy logic controllers (FLCs). It is hard to find an existing fuzzy hardware which is adopting advanced functions such as self-tuning algorithm in addition to the conventional inference calculation. That is mainly because conventional self-tuning algorithms designed to implement with some hardware circuits is required for fuzzy hardwares to have self-tuning capability. As a first step toward the feature, a novel self-tuning algorithm is proposed in this paper. Based on the search method, the main idea of the proposed algorithm is to detemine valid ranges of input variables of an FLC in order to maximize performance indices fo the control system. The performance indices are so ismple as to be realized by hardware circuit. in dadditon to the conventional scaling-factor adjustment, the algorithm adjusts offset values as well, which, in effect, modifies fuzzy rules of the FLC. To justify the performance of the proposed algorithm, a simulation study is executed.

In this paper, a new speed sensorless control based on a fuzzy compensator are proposed for the interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drives. The conventional proportional plus integrate(PI) control are very sensitive to step change of the command speed, parameter variations and load disturbance. To cope with these problems of the PI control, the estimated speeds are compensated by using the fuzzy logic controller (FLC). In the FLC used by the speed compensator of the IPMSM, the system control parameters are adjusted by the fuzzy rule based system, which is a logical model of the human behavior for process control. The effectiveness of algorithm is confirmed by the experiments.

A variable speed refrigeration system(VSRS) has been received high attention for energy saving ability. This paper investigates effects of design factors such as membership function range and sampling time to control performances for systematical designing fuzzy logic controller of the VSRS. Some comparisons of control performance between the fuzzy and PI are conducted including comparative evaluation of robustness against noise by using computer simulations. The simulation results showed that the fuzzy is very useful design method for engineers in the industrial fields which have big noises system and deal with inherent nonlinear system like the VSRS.
