description

In this paper, a new approach for designing an adaptive fuzzy model predictive control (AFMPC) based on the ant colony optimization (ACO) is proposed. On-line adaptive fuzzy identification is introduced to identify the system parameters. These parameters are used to calculate the objective function based on a predictive approach and structure of RST control. Then the optimization problem is solved based on an ACO algorithm, used at the optimization process in AFMPC to determine optimal controller parameters of RST control. The utility of the proposed controller is demonstrated by applying it to two nonlinear processes, where the proposed approach provides better performances compared with proportional integral-ant colony optimization controller and adaptive fuzzy model predictive controller.
