Shrabani Pal, Jayanta Bhushan Basu

Abstract: This paper proposes a simulation of a speed control of DC motor drive using Genetic algorithm at MATLAB. A proposed speed controller is developed based on Genetic Algorithm. A comparative study and analysis of proposed technique to classical method of PID control system applied to DC motor drive is presented. This comparison study has been done by MATLAB Simulink Toolbox. The simulation result shows that the proposed controller enhances the performance of speed control of Dc motor drive than the conventional PID controller.
