== PID == [[File:PID_control_en.svg|thumb|300px|right|The concept of PID control: Proportional, Integral, and Derivative terms.]] In Elixir, a PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller is a commonly used feedback control mechanism. It is a technique used to control a dynamic system by continuously calculating and adjusting the control output based on the system's error signal. === Overview === A PID controller consists of three main components: the proportional (P) term, the integral (I) term, and the derivative (D) term. Each term contributes to the overall control output based on different aspects of the error signal. The P term calculates an output directly proportional to the current error, which represents the difference between the desired setpoint and the current system state. The I term accumulates the past errors over time to address any steady-state errors. The D term accounts for the rate of change of the error to dampen the response and prevent overshooting. === Usage === PID controllers are widely used in various areas of Elixir programming, including robotics, process control, and automation. They provide a flexible and effective way to stabilize and maintain a desired system state despite disturbances or changes in inputs. To use a PID controller in Elixir, a typical approach involves the following steps: # Initialization: Set the desired setpoint and define the PID controller's gains for each term. # Reading and calculation: Continuously monitor the system's current state and calculate the error value based on the setpoint. # Control output calculation: Use the calculated error value along with the gains to calculate the contribution of each term (P, I, and D) to the overall control output. # Adjusting the system: Apply the control output to the system, such as adjusting motor speeds, valve positions, or other relevant parameters. # Repeat: Continuously repeat the calculation and adjustment process to maintain the desired system state. === Benefits === PID controllers offer several benefits in Elixir programming: * Improved control accuracy: The individual contributions of the P, I, and D terms enable precise control over a system's behavior. * Stability: The PID controller can provide stability even in the presence of disturbances or changes in the system's inputs. * Adaptability: PID controllers can be fine-tuned by adjusting the gains to match specific system requirements. * Efficiency: With proper tuning, PID controllers can achieve optimal control while minimizing overshooting and settling time. === Further Reading === For more information on related topics, you can check out the following articles on this Elixir wiki: * [[Control Theory]]: Provides an overview of control theory principles and concepts. * [[Feedback Control]]: Explores different types of feedback control mechanisms and their applications. * [[IEx]]: Introduces IEx, the Elixir interactive shell, commonly used for testing and experimenting with PID controllers. == References == https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PID_controller
