Abstract
A method for designing and tuning a PID process controller includes approximating a process as a second order process but in a manner that includes the effects or characteristics introduced by various different devices in the I/O network, and using a lambda tuning method to determine tuning parameters or coefficients for the PID controller. The enhanced controller design and tuning method provides a systematic manner of achieving performance improvement of PID controllers within a process control system and is effective at overcoming challenges arising from signal aliasing, the use of anti-aliasing filtering and the effects of different I/O settings of both traditional and advanced I/O marshalling architectures.
