Abstract
In this paper, digital proportional-integral-derivative (PID)-type and fuzzy-type controllers are compared for application to the buck and boost dc-dc converters. Comparison between the two controllers is made with regard to design methodology, implementation issues, and experimentally measured performance. Design of fuzzy controllers is based on heuristic knowledge of converter behavior, and tuning requires some expertise to minimize unproductive trial and error. The design of PID control is based on the frequency response of the dc-dc converter. Implementation of linear controllers on a digital signal processor is straightforward, but realization of fuzzy controllers increases computational burden and memory requirements. For the boost converter, the performance of the fuzzy controller was superior in some respects to that of the PID controllers. The fuzzy controller was able to achieve faster transient response in most tests, had a more stable steady-state response, and was more robust under some operating conditions. In the case of the buck converter, the fuzzy controller and PID controller yielded comparable performances.
