Performance Analysis of PID Tuning Techniques based on Time Response specification

Abstract: Proportional- Integral- Derivative (PID) controllers are widely used in industrial control system because of the reduced number of parameters to be tuned. Tuning the parameters of a PID controller is very important in PID control. The determination of proportional (KP), derivative (Kd) and integral (KI) constants are known as tuning of PID controller. This paper presents PID tuning rules for higher order system. The performance of PID tuning techniques is analysed and compared on basis of time response specifications.
