Abstract

Conventional control systems used for regulated power supplies, including the proportional integral and derivation (PID) controller, have some serious disadvantages. The PID controller has a delayed feedback associated with the control action and requires a lot of mathematical derivations. This paper presents a novel controlling system based on the artificial neural network (ANN), which can be used to regulate the output voltage of the DC power supply. Using MATLABTM, the designed control system was tested and analyzed with two types of back-propagation algorithms. This paper presents the results of the simulation that includes sum-squared error (SSE) and mean-squared error (MSE), and gives a detailed comparison of these values for the two algorithms. Hardware verification of the new system, using RS232 interface and Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0, was implement- ed, showing very good consistency with the simulation results. The proposed control system, compared to PID and other conventional controllers, requires less mathematical derivation in design and it is easier to implement.
