Input-output scaling factors tuning of type-2 fuzzy PID controller using multi-objective optimization technique

Abstract

The PID controller is a popular controller that is widely used in various industrial applications. On the other hand, the control problems in microgrids (MGs) are so challenging, because of natural disturbances such as wind speed changes, load variation, and changes in other sources. This paper proposes an input-output scaling factor tuning of interval type-2 fuzzy (IT2F) PID controller using a multi-objective optimization technique. The suggested controller is applied to an MG frequency regulation problem. In the introduced controller the effect of variations of renewable energies (REs) scheme, some factors such as least overshoot, and minimum settling/rising time are considered. achieved, such that the frequency trajectory shows the desired overshoot, and settling/rising time.
