A novel modified Lévy flight distribution algorithm to tune proportional, integral, derivative and acceleration controller on buck converter system

İngilizce (OpenAlex)

In this paper, an optimal proportional, integral, derivative and acceleration (PIDA) controller design based on Bode’s ideal reference model and a novel modified Lévy flight distribution (mLFD) algorithm is proposed for buck converter system. The modification of the original Lévy flight distribution (LFD) algorithm was achieved by improving exploration and exploitation capabilities of the algorithm through incorporation of opposition-based learning mechanism and hybridizing with simulated annealing algorithm, respectively. The modified algorithm was used to tune the gains of the PIDA controller in order to operate a buck converter system that is mimicking the response of the Bode’s ideal reference model. Both the proposed novel algorithm and its PIDA controller design implementation for buck converter were confirmed through various tests and extensive analyses of statistical and non-parametric tests, convergence profile, transient and frequency responses, disturbance rejection, robustness, and time delay response. The comparative results with the state-of-the-art algorithms of manta ray foraging optimization, arithmetic optimization algorithm and the original LFD algorithm have shown that the proposed mLFD algorithm performs better than the compared ones in all assessments even when different well-known performance indices are used. The proposed Bode’s ideal reference model-based optimal PIDA control design with novel mLFD algorithm was also compared with other design approaches using the same buck converter system available in the literature. The proposed mLFD algorithm-based design approach has also shown greater effectiveness compared to other available methods, as well.
