In many real applications, the discrepancy problem between controller outputs and plant inputs or the abrupt variation problem of controller outputs can occur. These problems have a negative effect on control performance and stability. It is well-known that two phenomena called 'windup' and 'bump' cause these problems. So far these problems have been studied separately in each side of the anti-windup and the bumpless transfer. This paper proposes a new unified method combines the anti-windup and the bumpless transfer method using the linear quadratic minimization and a proper state space model representation for the anti-windup controller. The proposed method has a feature that it takes account of both the anti-windup and the bumpless transfer in one formula. Finally, we exemplify the performance of the proposed method via numerical examples using the controller switching between the anti-windup PID controller and the anti-windup LQ controller.

The anti-windup schemes developed so far are summarized and the similarities/differences schemes are discussed. The anti-windup schemes are applied to a DC servomotor control system with PID controller to perform comparative study and sensitivity analysis. Based on those results, some criteria for choosing anti-windup scheme are suggested. The results of this study provide a very useful guideline for selecting and designing the anti-windup scheme for various types of PID control systems.

In order to overcome some problems of existing anti-windup methods, this paper defines LQ (Linear Quadratic) observer and proposes a new anti-windup method using the LQ observer. LQ observer is derived by linear quadratic optimization in order to calculate controller states, which make the controller outputs equal to the plant inputs. And we propose an algorithm so that it can be implemented by a digital controller easily. The relationship between the design parameters and the anti-windup performance is shown via some numerical examples, which cover the cases with the anti-windup method using LQ observer designed and the case without it. Finally, the anti-windup performance of the proposed method is exemplified via comparison with the existing model-based conditioning scheme method[4].

This paper proposes a method for comparing and evaluating anti-windup proportional-integral (PI) control strategies. The so-called PI plane is used and its coordinate is composed of the error and the integral state. In addition, an anti-windup PI controller with integral state prediction is proposed. The anti-windup scheme can be easily analyzed and evaluated on the PI plane in detail. Representative anti-windup methods are experimentally applied to the speed control of a vector-controlled induction motor driven by a pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage-source inverter (VSI). The experimental results compare the anti-windup PI controllers. It is empathized that the initial value of the integral state at the beginning of the linear range dominates the control performance in terms of overshoot and settling time.

Many practical processes in industry have nonlinearities of some forms. One commonly encountered form is actuator saturation which can cause a detrimental effect known as integrator windup. Therefore, a strategy of attenuating the effects of integrator windup is required to guarantee the stability and performance of the overall control system. In this paper, optimal tuning of a PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller with an anti-windup scheme is presented to enhance the tracking performance of the PID control system in the presence of the actuator saturation. First, we investigate effective anti-windup schemes. Then, the parameters of both the PID controller and the anti-windup scheme are optimally tuned by an EA (Evolutionary Algorithm) such as the IAE (Integral of Absolute Error) is minimized. A set of simulation works on two high-order processes demonstrates the benefit of the proposed method.

The simulation results are compared for the different operating conditions and the characteristic of speed response has been analyzed in order to obtain the optimal performance of anti-windup PI controller method.

Most realistic control systems contain nonlinearities of some form. One nonlinearity commonly found in control systems is a saturating element. If integral control is applied to such a system to eliminate steady state error, an undesired side effect known as integrator windup may occur when lage setpoint changes are made. This effect leads to a characteristic step response with a large overshoot and a very high settling time. To avoid this situation, many different anti-windup strategies have been suggested. But existing strategies remain over shoot and high settling time. This paper proposes a new anti-windup strategy for PI speed controllers. When the speed control system is changed P controller to PI controller. Integrator has an appropriate initial value. This value results over shoot and high settling time. The SIMULINK/MATLAB-based comparative simulation results and experiment results of speed controller have shown its superior control performance to that of a proposed anti-windup speed controller.

In this paper, novel topology for fast response of various loads is proposed. The windup phenomenon appears and results in performance degradation when the PI controller output is saturated. A new anti-windup PI controller is proposed to improve the control performance of variable speed motor drives, and it is experimentally applied to the speed control of a hysteresis current-controlled SRM driven by an asymmetry bridge converter. The experimental results show that the speed response has much improved performance, such as small overshoot and fast settling time, over the conventional PI control.

This paper presents a tuning-free conditional integration anti-windup strategy for induction machine with Proportional-Integral(PI) type speed controller. The on/off condition of integral action is determined by the frequency domain analysis of machine torque command without a prior knowledge of set-point changes. There are no tuning parameters to be selected by users for anti-windup scheme. In addition, the dynamic performance of the proposed scheme assures a desired tracking response curve with minimal oscillation and settling time even in the change of operating conditions. This algorithm is useful in many high performance induction machine applications not to allow the oscillation and overshoot of speed/torque responses. The main idea can be extended to general applications such as chemical processes and industrial robots.
