Abstract

© 2019, Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science. All rights reserved.Interconnected system between computation and physical process (Cyber-Physical Systems) has been widely used in industrial processes. In CPS-based industrial process, sensors, controllers, and actuators are connected into a communication network. The communication network may introduce delay time uncertainties due to shared resources and load traffic in the network. Furthermore, the nonlinear time-varying characteristic of batch distillation column may causes another uncertainties to take into account in control system design. Parameter model and delay process uncertainty is introduced due to linearized system approximation that unmodeled high-frequency dynamics. The dynamic uncertainty on both I/O channel are also introduced to the system uncertainty. In this paper, robust PI and PID controller using AMIGO method with appropriate weighting function is designed to guarantee robust stability spesification of batch distillation column. The impact of system uncertainties to closed-loop system performances such as peak overshoot and integral error is investigated. MATLAB/Simulink simulation is used to validate the methods before its implementation in CPS-based batch distillation column. Based on simulation, the proposed robust PI/PID controller can guarantee robust stability of system compared to conventional PID controller. Furthermore, the robust PI/PID controller can improve closed-loop system performances compared to conventional PID.
