Abstract
The control of processes with time delays is crucial in process industries such as petrochemical, hydraulic, and manufacturing. It is a challenging task for automation engineers, as it may affect both phase and gain margins. In this case, a robust control system is preferred. This article presents a novel controller structure combining computational intelligence (CI) and fractional-order control. A fractional-order PID (FOPID) controller based on a bio-inspired immune feedback mechanism (IFM) is developed for controlling processes described as first-order plus time-delay systems (FOPTD). A genetic algorithm (GA) is used to optimize the controller parameters. Fractional-order control has been used to give extra flexibilities and an immune feedback mechanism for its self-adaptability. Numerical simulations are presented to validate the proposed control strategy in terms of reference tracking and disturbance rejection. Comparative simulation results with an immune integer-order PID controller are also included to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed fractional-order method.
