Pid Controller Tuning Of Networked Computer Based Control Systems, Aidan O'Dwyer Jan 2005

Pid Controller Tuning Of Networked Computer Based Control Systems, Aidan O'Dwyer

Conference papers

This contribution discusses the use of PID controller tuning rules to assist in the implementation of network computer based control systems. Such systems typically have a variable time delay associated with the transfer of information. PID controller tuning rules can be directly implemented with minimal capital investment.
