Contents
1.1 Conventional Control
• Classical control theory– three-term (PID) controllers
– used to control all kinds of devices,
– cannot always satisfy the increasing complexity of plants and the demands
• Modern control – introduced in the early 1960s
– Invaluable for finding solutions to well-structured control problems
– Application-----disappointing and few
PID Control
• Proportional Control– Pure gain adjustment acting on error signal
• Integral Control– Adjust accuracy of the system
• Derivative Control– Adjust damping of the system
1.1 Conventional Control
• relies on explicit mathematical model • the model of the plant be simplified • based on low order holistic models of the physical
plant. • controllers can only perform at their best at the
nominal operating point of the plant • gain-scheduling • Adaptive controllers --periodic identification is re-
quired
1.2 Unconventional control --Intelligent Control
• based on the knowledge and experience of human operators --- Soft Control
• based on a microscopic description of the controlled plant using differential or difference equations --- Hard Control

1.2 Unconventional control --Intelligent Control• A fundamental difference between conventional
and Intelligent Control
distinct entities single entity
1.2 Unconventional control --Intelligent Control
Intelligent Control is the fusion of Systems Theory, Computer Science, Operations Research and Computational Intelligence
1.3 Intelligent Control TechniquesComputational Intelligence provides the tools with which to make intelligent control a reality.
-Intelligent controllers use empirical models Instead of relying on explicit mathematical models
-The fundamental problem in developing an intelligent controller is elicitation and representation of the knowledge and experience of human operators in a manner that is amenable to computational processing.
1.3 Intelligent Control Techniques
Definition of intelligent control system
• It is a more flexible control system which incorporates other elements, such as logic, reasoning and heuristics into the more algorithmic techniques provided by conventional control theory.
Astrom, K J & McAvoy, T J. “Intelligent control: an overview and evaluation” in White D A et al: “Handbook of intelligent control: neural, fuzzy adaptive approaches”. (Van Nostrand, N.Y., 1992, pp.3-34)
IEEE ICS specification
• Intelligent control system(ICS)
• Technical Committee on Intelligent Control in IEEE Control System Society general characteristics of ICS:
• An ability to emulate human capabilities, such as planning, learning and adaptation.
1.5 Autonomy and Intelligent Control
a high degree of autonomy is required in intelligent Autonomy in setting and achieving goals is an importan characteristic of intelligent control systems.
Autonomy of operation is the objective and intelligent control is the means to this objective.
When a system has the ability to ac appropriately in an uncertain environment for extended periods of time without external intervention it is considered to be highly autonomous.
1.5 Autonomy and Intelligent Control
Hierarchical structure of an Intelligent System
Saridis’ principle of “increasing precision
with decreasing intelligence”
hierarchical intelligent con-trol systems have three layers
Distributed architecture
