Abstract

A proportional plus integral plus differential (PID) controller containing an algorithm option is disclosed. The option allows the selection of a classical interacting type of controller or a non-interacting type of controller. The classical interacting type of controller is characterized by the property that tuning any one of the proportional, integral or derivative terms changes the effective value of the other terms. In contrast, the non-interacting type of controller is characterized by the property that tuning any one of the proportional, integral or derivative terms has no effect on the other terms.
