Optimization of intelligent fuzzy controllers for industrial facilities

Classical linear controllers often do not provide required quality of control of real, mostly nonlinear industrial facilities. Under these conditions, high efficiency show fuzzy PID controllers and their modifications, which, by appropriate choice of parameters, can become nonlinear and better suited for the control of nonlinear industrial facilities. In this paper we propose a simplified method for determining the optimal parameters of fuzzy PD controller with the use of MATLAB and the method of fuzzy linearization discussed in [1, 2, 3].
