According to increase of the factory-automation(FA) in the field of production, the importance of the autonomous guided vehicle's(AGV) role has also increased. This paper is about an active and effective controller which can flexibly prepare for changeable circumstances. For this study, research about an behavior-based system evolving by itself is also being considered. In this Paper, we constructed an active and effective AGV fuzzy controller to be able to carry out self-organization. To construct it, we tuned suboptimally membership function using a genetic algorithm(GA) and improved the control efficiency by self-correction and the generation of control rules.

A fuzzy controller need membership functions and the control rules depend on heuristic knowledge of expertises entirely. On account of, it is possible that a desired performance of a fuzzy controller can not be guaranteed or easily degraded under some circumstances such as a change of plant parameter which exporters do not considered. Therefore, in this paper we tried to increase the controller's efficiency by adjusting the control rules and the parameters of the membership functions by using a genetic algorithm. We also proposed the Self-Organizing Fuzzy Controller which uses the Fusion Method in order to minimize the number of control rules and to construct the intuitive controller. For validation of the proposed algorithm, we design the Autonomous Guided Vehicle Controller, then apply to variant condition.
