Design of a Fuzzy Logic Controller Using Response Surface Methodology

반응표면분석법을 이용한 퍼지제어기의 설계

When the fuzzy logic controller (FLC), which is designed based on the plant model, is applied to the real control system, satisfactory control performance may not be attained due to modeling errors from the plant model. In such cases, the control parameters of the controller must be adjusted to enhance control performance. Until now, the trial and error method has been used, consuming much time and effort. To resolve such problem, response surface methodology (RSM), a new method of adjusting the control parameters of the controller, is suggested. This method is more systematic than the previous trial and error method, and thus optimal solutions can be provided with less tuning. First, the initial values of the control parameters were determined through the plant model and the optimization algorithm. Then, designed experiments were performed in the region around the initial values, determining the optimal values of the control parameters which satisfy both the rise time and overshoot simultaneously.
