To understand the function and build the derivative
controller and PID controller.
Introduction:
A PID controller is an instrument used in industrial
control applications. PID (proportional integral derivative) controllers use a control loop feedback mechanism to control process variables and are the most accurate and stable controller.
PID control uses closed-loop control feedback to keep
the actual output from a process as close to the target or setpoint output as possible.
As the name suggests, PID algorithm consists of three
basic coefficients; proportional, integral and derivative which are varied to get optimal response. Derivative controller: A derivative controller called also rate controller because it is changing the shape of output signal, and do not change the steady state error, thus why the derivative controller does not work alone.
PID controller:
This type of control is also termed as
three-term control, and is implemented by a PID Controller. By calculating and controlling three parameters – the proportional, integral and derivative of how much a process variable deviates from the desired set point value – we can achieve different control actions for specific work. p-controller affect directly to the steady state error, I-controller can make steady state error equal to zero and D-controller (rate controller) affect the shape of output signal.
If gain 1 and 2 are equal to zero, then only P-controller will
exist in the system. If gain 2 is zero, then only PI-controller will exist. If all gains are not equal to zero, then its PID-controller, and the error is less and output shape is better as shown above.
It is possible to remove all the individual controller and
install a PID-controller from Simulink diagram. All above the red line equal the under. The outputs are not identical, because the PID controller consist a filter. If we put Ki= zero, then the controller called PD controller.
The different between two signal is due the difference of
rate time. Conclusion:
1) The D-controllers is derivative controller that
does not work alone, because no effect will change in steady state error. 2) D-controller also called rate controller, due its change only the shape of output. 3) We can change the values of P,I and D individually using PID controller.
