An accurate and cost-effective fuzzy logic controller(I)-A VHDL design and simulation

This paper concerns a VHDL design and simulation of an accurate and cost-effective fuzzy logic controller (FLC). The accurcy of the proposed FLC is obtained by using the center of gravity (COG) defuzzifier that considers both membership values and spans of membership functions in calculating a crisp value. The cost-effectiveness of the proposed FLC is obtained by restructuring the conventional FLC in the following ways: Firstly, the MAX-MIN inference is inference is replaced by a read-modify-write operation that can be implemented economically in the structure of register files. Secondly, the division in the COG defuzzifier is avoided by finding the moment equilibrium point. The proposed COG defuzzifier has two disadvantages that it requires additional multipliers and it takes a lot of computation time to find the moment equilibrium point. The first disadvantage is overcome by replacing the mulitpliers with stochastic AND operations and the second disadvantage is alleviated by using a coarse-to-fine searching algorithm. The proposed FLC is described in VHDL structurally and behaviorally and whether it is working well or not is checked on SYNOPSYS VHDL simulator by using the truck backer-upper control problem.
