Self-Tuning Control of Manipulator Positioning Based on Fuzzy PID and PSO Algorithm
Abstract
With the manipulator performs fixed-point tasks, it becomes adversely affected by external disturbances, parameter variations, and random noise. Therefore, it is essential to improve the robust and accuracy of the controller. In this article, a self-tuning particle swarm optimization (PSO) fuzzy PID positioning controller is designed based on fuzzy PID control. The quantization and scaling factors in the fuzzy PID algorithm are optimized by PSO in order to achieve high robustness and high accuracy of the manipulator. First of all, a mathematical model of the manipulator is developed, and the manipulator positioning controller is designed. A PD control strategy with compensation for gravity is used for the positioning control system. Then, the PID controller parameters dynamically are minute-tuned by the fuzzy controller 1. Through a closed-loop control loop to adjust the magnitude of the quantization factors–proportionality factors online. Correction values are outputted by the modified fuzzy controller 2. A quantization factor–proportion factor online self-tuning strategy is achieved to find the optimal parameters for the controller. Finally, the control performance of the improved controller is verified by the simulation environment. The results show that the transient response speed, tracking accuracy, and follower characteristics of the system are significantly improved.
