Advanced PID Control
Description
The authors of the best-selling book PID Controllers: Theory, Design, and Tuning once again draw on their extensive expertise in the PID field to provide an in-depth look at PID control.
Advanced PID Control builds on the fundamentals learned in PID Controllers by incorporating more advanced control techniques. The design of PID controllers has become crucial to control system design, addressing criteria such as load disturbances, noise measurement, robustness to process variations and maintaining set points. This approach enables a seamless transition from basic PID control to more advanced, model-based controllers. It also helps gain insight into fundamental limitations and recognize the necessary information to design effective controllers.
This book provides a solid foundation for understanding, operating and implementing the more advanced features of PID controllers, including auto-tuning, gain scheduling and adaptation. It pays particular attention to specific challenges like reset windup, long process dead times and oscillatory systems. Additionally, it covers modeling methods, implementation details and problem-solving techniques.
