Optimization of the FOPID parameters of the 3D crane control system by using GWO

This paper presents an example of tuning FOPID (Fractional Order Proportional Integral Derivative) controller with 3D crane. The GWO (Grey Wolf Optimizer) optimization algorithm is used to design FOPID for the system. Simulations are done in MATLAB platform. The results show comparison of fractional calculus to the conventional method.
