Abstract In 6 Degree of Freedom (DOF) parallel manipulator, trajectory tracking is one of the main challenges. To obtain the desired trajectory, the DC motor needs to generate optimal torque. So to obtain optimal torque, an optimized Linear Quadratic Regulator-Proportional–Integral–Derivative (LQR-PID) controller is presented in this paper. For optimizing the Q, R and gain parameters of LQR-PID controller, Squirrel Search Algorithm (SSA) is presented. In this algorithm, minimal cost function of LQR-PID controller is considered as objective function. The SSA based LQR-PID controller leads the motor to generate optimal torque that helps to attain the desired trajectory of 6-DOF parallel manipulator. Results of the work depicts that the SSA based LQR-PID controller achieves the best mean velocity, sum square error (SSE), integral square error (ISE) and integral absolute error (IAE).

A detailed approach for a linear Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller and a non-linear controller - Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) is discussed in this paper. By analyzing several mathematical designs for the Skid Steer Mobile Robot (SSMR), the controllers are implemented in an embedded microcontroller - Mbed LPC1768. To verify the controllers, MATLAB-Simulink is used for the simulation of both the controllers involving motors - Maxon RE40. This paper compares between PID and LQR controller along with the performance comparison between Homogenous and Non-Homogenous LQR controllers.

The application in the industrial manipulator robots has grown over the years making production systems increasingly efficient. Within this context, the need for efficient controllers is required to perform the control of these manipulators. In this work the PID controller (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) and LQR (Linear Quadratic Regulator) is presented from the inverse dynamics model of a RPP (Rotational - Prismatic - Prismatic) cylindrical manipulator. The inverse dynamic model which is modeled on Simulink together with a cascaded PID controller is presented. The PID and LQR results are also presented for joint independent and joint dependent control, i.e a controlled PID is used for each joint, controlling the trajectories and speeds at the same time. This paper has as main contributions the development of the manipulator dynamics model and the design of the LQR and PID controllers applied to the inverse dynamics model, which makes the system simpler to control.

This paper deals with the design of an optimally performed proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controller utilized for speed control of a direct current (DC) motor. To do so, a novel hybrid algorithm was proposed which employs a recent metaheuristic approach, named Lévy flight distribution (LFD) algorithm, and a simplex search method known as Nelder–Mead (NM) algorithm. The proposed algorithm (LFDNM) combines both LFD and NM algorithms in such a way that the good explorative behaviour of LFD and excellent local search capability of NM help to form a novel hybridized version that is well balanced in terms of exploration and exploitation. The promise of the proposed structure was observed through employment of a DC motor with PID controller. Optimum values for PID gains were obtained with the aid of an integral of time multiplied absolute error objective function. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, comparative simulations were carried out using cuckoo search algorithm, genetic algorithm and original LFD algorithm. The system behaviour was assessed through analysing the results for statistical and non-parametric tests, transient and frequency responses, robustness, load disturbance, energy and maximum control signals. The respective evaluations showed better performance of the proposed approach. In addition, the better performance of the proposed approach was also demonstrated through experimental verification. Further evaluation to demonstrate better capability was performed by comparing the LFDNM-based PID controller with other state-of-the-art algorithms-based PID controllers with the same system parameters, which have also confirmed the superiority of the proposed approach.

The inherited instabilities in the Inverted Pendulum (IP) system make it one of the most difficult nonlinear problems in the control theory. In this research work, Proportional –Integral and Derivative (PID) Controller with a feed forward gain is used with Reduced Linear Quadratic Regulator (RLQR) for stabilizing the Cart Position and Swinging-up the Pendulum angle. Tuning the Controllers' gains is achieved by using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) Technique. Obtaining the combined PID controllers' gains with a feed forward gain and RLQR is a multi-dimensions control problem. The Proposed Controllers give minimum Settling Time, Rise Time, Undershoot and Over shoot for both the Cart Position and the Pendulum angle. A disturbance with different amplitudes is applied to the system, and the results showed the robustness of the systems based on the tuned controllers. The overall results are promising.

The objective of this article is to optimize parameters of a hybrid sliding mode controller based on fireworks algorithm for a nonlinear inverted pendulum system. The proposed controller is a combination of two modified types of the classical sliding mode controller, namely, baseline sliding mode controller and fast output sampling discrete sliding mode controller. The simulation process is carried out with MATLAB/Simulink. The results are compared with a published hybrid method using proportional–integral–derivative and linear quadratic regulator controllers. The simulation results show a better performance of the proposed controller.


The classical proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers are still use in various applications in industry. Magnetic levitation (ML) systems are rigidly nonlinear and sometimes unstable systems. Due to inbuilt nonlinearities of ML systems, tracking of position of ML Systems is still difficult. For the tracking purpose of position, PID controller parameters are found by choosing Cuckoo Search Algorithm (CSA) of optimization. The ranges of parameters are customized by z-n method of parameters. Simulation results show the tracking of position of ML systems using conventional and optimized parameters obtained with the CSA based controller.

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is an optimization algorithm that is simple and reliable to complete optimization. The balance between exploration and exploitation of PSO searching characteristics is maintained by inertia weight. Since this parameter has been introduced, there have been several different strategies to determine the inertia weight during a train of the run. This paper describes the method of adjusting the inertia weights using fuzzy signatures called signature PSO. Some parameters were used as a fuzzy signature variable to represent the particle situation in a run. The implementation to solve the tuning problem of linear quadratic regulator (LQR) control parameters is also presented in this paper. Another weight adjustment strategy is also used as a comparison in performance evaluation using an integral time absolute error (ITAE). Experimental results show that signature PSO was able to give a good approximation to the optimum control parameters of LQR in this case.

Single Inductor (SI) converters with the advantage of using one inductor for any number of inputs/outputs find wide applications in portable electronic gadgets and electrical vehicles. SI converters can be used in Single Input Multiple Output (SIMO) and Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) configurations but they need controllers to achieve good transient and steady state responses, to improve the stability against load and line disturbances and to reduce cross regulation. Cross regulation is the change in an output voltage due to change in the load current at another output and it is an added constraint in SI converters. In this paper, Single Input Dual Output (SIDO) and Dual Input Dual Output (DIDO) converters with applications capable of handling high load current working in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) of operation are taken under study. Conventional multivariable PID and optimal Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) controllers are developed and their performances are compared for the above configurations to meet the desired objectives. Generalized mathematical models for SIMO and MIMO are developed and a Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to find the parameters of a multivariable PID controller and the weighting matrices of optimal LQR where the objective function includes cross regulation as a constraint. The simulated responses reveal that LQR controller performs well for both the systems over multivariable PID controller and they are validated by hardware prototype model with the help of DT9834® Data Acquisition Module (DAQ). The methodologies used here generate a fresh dimension for the case of such converters in practical applications.
