In order to complete missions in a complicated terrain or highly dangerous area, an unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV) needs a fine controller to precisely follow the desired path. A PID controller used for the path following feeds forward path curvature information to the control input to improve the path following performance. High gain for PID controller is necessary to follow path tightly. However the high gain could cause instability or performance degradation when the vehicle has slow dynamics. We present PID controller design method which considers response delay of vehicle as well as path curvature. In order to obtain path curvature the desired path is described as a 3rd order polynomial by applying cubic spline interpolation. We apply the proposed controller to the path following of a UAV which is operated in high altitude and has very slow lateral dynamics. The lateral dynamics are modelled as a first order delayed system in the controller design. Nonlinear simulation shows the UAV with proposed controller follows an arbitrary path very tightly.

In this paper, we propose the self-tuning of PID controller using diagonal recurrent neural networks. The characteristic of the proposed structure is on-line adaptive learning scheme in spite of variations of feedback, signals. Control performance is compared with that of neural network based PID controller which was proposed by Iwasa. Computer simulation results show that the proposed controller is effective in controlling of unknown nonlinear plants.

Conventional gain-tuning methods such as Ziegler-Nickels methods, have many disadvantages that optimal control ler gain should be tuned manually. In this paper, modified PID controllers which include self-tuning characteristics are proposed. Proposed controllers automatically tune the PID gains in on-1ine using neural networks. A new learning scheme was proposed for improving learning speed in neural networks and satisfying the real time condition. In this paper, using a nonlinear mapping capability of neural networks, we derive a tuning method of PID controller based on a Back propagation(BP)method of multilayered neural networks. Simulated and experimental results show that the proposed method can give the appropriate parameters of PID controller when it is implemented to DC Motor.

Although Fuzzy Logic Controller(FLC) adopted three terms as input gives better performance. FLC is in general composed of two-term control because of the difficulty in the construction of fuzzy rule base. In this paper, a three-term FLC which is similar to PID control but acts as a nonlinear controller is proposed. To reduce the complexity of the rule base design and increase efficiency, a simplified fuzzy PID control is induced from a hybrid velocity/position type PID algorithm by sharing a common rule base for both fuzzy Pi and fuzzy PD parts. It is simple in structure, easy in implementation, and fast in calculation. The phase plane technique is applied to obtain the rule base for fuzzy two-term control and them. The resultant rule base is Macvicar-Whelan type. The frequency response information is used in tuning of membership functions. Also a tuning strategy for the scaling factors is Proposed based on the relationship between PID gain and them. Simulation results show better performance and the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A position control system using hydraulic cylinder is modeled as a nonlinear system. In order to control this nonlinear system, in this paper, the fuzzy PID control technique which has time-varying control parameters is adopted. In this study, an exclusive sensor to detect the position of hydraulic cylinder is used, which is embeded in hydraulic cylinder.

Methods for automatic tuning of PID controllers have been on of the results of the active research on control. The proposed controller also is auto-tuning of PID controller The proposed immune algorithm has an uncomplicated structure and memory-cell mechanism as the optimization algorithm which imitates the principle of humoral immune response. We use the proposed algorithm to solve optimization of PID controller parameters. Up to now, the applications of immune algorithm have been optimization problems with non-varying system parameters. Therefore the usefulness of memory-cell mechanism in immune algorithm is without. And research of memory-cell mechanism does not give us entire satisfaction. This paper proposes the immune algorithm using a memory-cell mechanism which can be the application of system with nonlinear varying parameters. To verify performance of the proposed immune algorithm, the speed control of nonlinear DC motor are performed. The results of Computer simulations represent that the proposed immune algorithm shows a fast convergence speed and a good control performances under the varying system parameters.

Although the fuzzy logic controller is superior to the proportional integral derivative (PID) controller in motor control, the gain tuning of the fuzzy logic controller is more complicated than that of the PID controller. Using mathematical analysis of the proportional derivative (PD) and fuzzy logic controller, this study proposed a design method of a fuzzy logic controller that has the same characteristics as the PD controller in the beginning. Then a design method of a fuzzy logic controller was proposed that has superior performance to the PD controller. This fuzzy logic controller was designed by changing the envelope of the input of the of the fuzzy logic controller to nonlinear, because the fuzzy logic controller has more degree of freedom to select the control gain than the PD controller. By designing the fuzzy logic controller using the proposed method, it simplified the design of fuzzy logic controller, and it simplified the comparison of these two controllers.

In this paper, an algorithm to design fuzzy PID controllers is proposed. The proposed controllers are composed of fuzzy rules of which consequences are linear PID controllers and are designed with help of TSK fuzzy controllers. TSK fuzzy controllers are designed from TSK fuzzy model using pole assignment and have outstanding ability making the output response of nonlinear systems similar to the desired one. However, because of its structure complexity the TSK fuzzy controller is difficult to be used in industry. The proposed controllers have PID controller structure which can be easily realized, and are designed by using the data obtained from control simulations with TSK fuzzy controllers. To verify the proposed algorithm, two example simulations are performed.

Nonlinear dynamic system exist widely in many types of systems such as chemical processes, biomedical processes, and the main steam temperature control system of the thermal power plant. Up to the present time, PID Controllers have been used to operate these systems. However, it is very difficult to achieve an optimal PID gain with no experience, because of the interaction between loops and gain of the PID controller has to be manually tuned by trial and error. This paper suggests control approaches by immune fuzzy for the nonlinear control system inverted pendulum, through computer simulation. This paper defines relationship state variables $x,{\dot{x}},{\theta},\dot{\theta}$ using immune fuzzy and applied its results to stability.

In this thesis, the algorithm of Fuzzy Logic Control(FLC) is applied to the Nonlinear system to implement a system response. Proportional-Integral-Derivative(PID) controller is also used to control the various systems. Look-up table is applied to decide the control input, and the other look-up table is added for saving memories and inference time. Generally, FLC input variables are error(E) and error derivative($\Delta$E). In this algorithm. another Input variable error's second derivative($\Delta^2$E) is added for Robust Fine control.
