Optimal PID Controller Design for AVR System Based on Multi-objective Optimization and Multi-attribute Decision Making

In this paper, a novel two-stage approach is proposed to design an optimal Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller for the Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) system by combining multi-objective optimization with multi-attribute decision making. First, the optimal PID controller design for the AVR system is formulated as a multiobjective optimization problem. Then a new multi-objective sta...
