Objectives
Use Ziegler-Nichols, Cohen-Coon, and time integral tuning methods to determine controller parameters
Background
A strong controller is one that can respond quickly to a disturbance while limiting the oscillation and overshoot. One such controller is the PID controller, which takes into account current error (P), past error (I), and predicted error (D). Optimal tuning parameters can be determined through methods such as Ziegler-Nichols, Cohen-Coon, and ITAE. A reaction curve can be used to find the gain (K), time delay (), and time constant ()
