Abstract
In this paper a new auto-tuning algorithm for PI and PID controllers based on relay experiments is proposed to minimize the load disturbance integral error (IE) by maximizing the integral gain, subject to a desired phase margin, and a minimum required gain margin constraint. The main advantage of the proposed auto-tuning algorithm with respect to previous works is that it leads, for most of the processes, to PID tuning with close loop performance similar to PID designed using off-line numerical optimization. Moreover the algorithm is applicable to any linear model structure, including dead time and non-minimum phase systems.
