The Efficiency of an Optimized PID Controller Based on Ant Colony Algorithm (ACO-PID) for the Position Control of a Multi-articulated System

Abstract


In this article, a robot manipulator is controlled by the PID controller in a closed loop system with unit feedback. The difficulty of using the controller is parameter tuning, because the tuning parameters still use the trial and error method to find the PID parameter constants, namely Proportional Gain (Kp), Integral Gain (Ki) and Derivative Gain (Kd). In this case the Ant colony Optimization algorithm (ACO) is used to find the best gain parameters of the PID. The Ant algorithm is a method of combinatorial optimization, which utilizes the pattern of ants search for the shortest path from the nest to the place where the food is located, this concept is applied to tuning PID parameters by minimizing the objective function such that the robot manipulator has improved performance characteristics. This work uses the Matlab Simulink environment, First, after obtaining the system model, the ant colony algorithm is used to determine the proper coefficients 𝐾p, 𝐾i, and Kd in order to minimize the trajectory errors of the two joints of the robot manipulator. Then, the parameters will implement in the robot system. According to the results of the computer simulations, the proposed method (ACO-PID) gives a system that has a good performance compared with the classical PID.
