JIC_V5_N1_RP4 Sumit Ranjan Priyadarshi Shekhar Yadav Journal on Instrumentation & Control Engineering 2321 – 1148 5 1 24 30 FOPID Controller, PID Controller, Tuning Rules, AVR System In the last few decades, in all types of industries, approximately the most common types of controllers are PID controllers. They have found a huge acceptance and application in distinct industry. The most common types of controller used in process control are PID controllers due to their efficient response. Proper tuning rules are required for PID controller to give desired output and appropriate performance. There are progressive researches going on, to develop novel methods for PID tuning rules and designing. A large number of algorithms have been grown up by researchers and appropriate methods according to the application are approved by industries for PID tuning and designing. The authors aim to find out the way, which provides better tuning parameterization and better response. In this paper, the superiority of FOPID controller over conventional PID controller is discussed using MATLAB/SIMULINK. In recent years, FOPID controllers replaced all the PID controllers in many areas of engineering and science. The concept of FOPID controller was first invented by Podlubny in 1997.
