A review of PID control, tuning methods and applications

This article provides a study of modern and classical approaches used for PID tuning and its applications in various domains. Most of the control systems that are implemented to date with the use of PID control because of its simple structure, ease of implementation, and active research in tuning the PID for a long time. The techniques reviewed in the paper are in the order from classical to modern optimization rules used for the PID tuning. This paper attempts to address the literature review of PID control in an era of control system and bio-medical applications. The development of classical PID to the integration of intelligent control to it, has been surveyed by consideration of various application domains. The primary purpose of this document is to provide a detailed point of information for the people to understand the command of PID in different application areas.
