RVEGA SMC for Precise Level Control of Coupled Tank System |
| Abstract |
The sliding rude controller(SMC) is known as having the robust variable structures for the nonlinear control systems such as coupled tank system with the parametric perturbations and with the rapid disturbances. But the adaptive tuning algorithms for their parameters are not satisfactory. Therefore in this paper, a Real Variable Elitist Genetic Algorithm based Sliding Mode Controller (RVEGA SMC) for the precise control of the coupled tank level was tried. The SMC"s switching parameters were optimized easily and rapidly by RVEGA The simulation results showed that the tank level could be satisfactorily controlled without any overshoot and any steady-state error by the proposed RVEGA SMC. |
