Introduction to PID Control
In this video we introduce the concept of proportional, integral, derivative (PID) control. PID controllers are perhaps the most popular and widely used control scheme in history. While they are relatively simple, they are surprisingly robust and provide excellent performance in most situations. This video introduces the core concepts in PID controller and sets the stage for various future videos where we will discuss their nuances and details in greater depth.

Professors like you, that share to the world their knowledge. Are really a rare Gem.
As a retired ME professor, this video took me back to when I taught the PID course at the university. Thanks so much for the memory

Hi James, thanks for the kind words. I have a more similar videos at kzread.info/head/PLxdnSsBqCrrF9KOQRB9ByfB0EUMwnLO9o . Please feel free to check them out, I'd love to hear your thoughts as an academic. Thanks for watching!
Very informative and clear, it will be hard to forget what PID is
Thank you very much for this explanation. I'm not a math person so I could finally got this. But, as a beekeeper, I lose all after the honey waste... I'll watch again. Thanks from Brazil!
Hi Dr. Lum. As an first-year student who is learning about PID control, I would say that your videos about PID are really helpful for me. Thank you so much.
AE511: I find it interesting how complementary the three components are. The "past, present, and future" analogy was very helpful.
This is how everything should be taught. Your lesson is surely more valuable than the whole control theory course at my university 🤣. Universities should be KZreadrized in my opinion.
Thank you Sir. Your video is Gold. Keep blessing the humanity with what you got🙏
[AE 511] 24:26 The breakdown of the PID controller is great. Especially the paradox explanation of the integration component.
AE 511: Loved the demo! I've always had to google the impacts of each component of a PID controller, but now I'll forever remember! :)
What an amazing video. Well explained, and managed at answer all my questions i had previously about pids.
Thank you for breaking it down into understandable chunks. sometimes it's hard to understand abstract ideas without a visual representation! I'm a visual learner so your visual example really helped me understand and gave me that ah ha moment! great stuff. This will really help me further my career as a Multicraft technician.
Thank you soo much sir for the physical demonstration. The demo has all my heart ❤️❤️
Excellent demonstration - I knew functionally nothing about PID controllers but need to have some understanding not only for work but also for home (wanting to use PID for a home built coffee roaster). Honestly...I would've used oil - e.g. mineral oil instead of honey...much less messy but point taken LOL
AE511: 47:07 It was great to see the comprehensive table of what manipulating Kp/KI/Kd gains will do for the overall system performance gains. When we briefly went over this in undergrad, my limited exposure was trial and error but this was useful in actually making targeted estimations (by hand, obviously there are tools like PID tuner that help out with this)

That being said, never discount the power of guess and check 🙂
Great efforts, Mr Lum. Keep Going.
Well done sir! I love the way u present the idea very straightforward and short informative. I hope u the best!
Beautiful video, finally i can understand the base of the pid control, keep making videos about this!!!
Amazing explanation!!
Thank you Wery much! Tomorrow I have the final exam related to PID adjustments and I have been studying the subject for a really long time now. I understand the P and I and D controls separately, but it was the combination of these that seemed very challenging to figure out in practice. This video put the rest of the pieces in place and it's completely self-evident to me now! Thank you!

Helpful explanation. Respect to you for your contribution to academaic environment. Prof aziz
Excellent lecture thanks!
Perfectly explained
It was very useful. Thank you!
Hey bud - watching your vids because you helped me with my fridge lol. Good luck with your videos!
great physical demo of PID
Отличный урок! Спасибо огромное
Not all heroes wear capes. I've already graduated. But still love to watch all those videos
Outstanding! Thanks for sharing.

Too good explanation sir
Great Explaination ever
Hi Dr. Lum! I love your videos, have you ever considered lecturing a course in Estimation and Tracking with applications in Aerospace Engineering? Topics could include Kalman Filtering, GNC, state estimation, etc. Would love to watch lectures from you on that topic!
Yay! Control theory!
This video is amazing thank you so much
This lecture is so good.

AE 511 - Thought this was a very good intro to PID controllers
subscribed, good stuff here.
thank you so much
Dear Professor i think the spike of the derivative part has the sign inverted respect to the rest of the deirivative part because the sign of the derived step error is a positive delta instead the derived after the step goes to zero and then goes to negative values ....so changing the sign respect to the sign of the delta....it means that after a reset....a step error brings suddenly the derivative pid to slow down the control and after the step the control tends slowly to increaase ita own pushing capability.....anyway great video thanlk you
The arrows in the stability columns should be in upward directions as the stability increases (more stable) in the table at the end of lecture?
Which book to follow along with your lecture on control theory .
In your analysis, the error signal starts out as a step signal and then decays. In the derivative case, when the error goes from zero to some value, ud(t) is large and positive, but when the error decays, ud(t) should be negative because the slope of the error signal is negative therefore the derivative is negative ...
I have a question about 27:30, wouldn’t the u(t) of the D response be negative after the initial delta response to the discontinuity? As the rest of the control drives the error down, wouldn’t it be acting as negative feedback to lower the control response to minimize overshoot?
One part I don't understand is where does the function equation {e.g. e(t)} come from which will be integrated or differentiated by the PID controller. The reason I'm asking this question is because the signal coming from the transmitter (feedback) to the controller is just an integer (4mA- 20mA). My guess is the equation are build into the controller based on models of the system behaver.
AE511: It's interesting how there is a physical example for both proportional and derivative, but not an obvious one for integral.
There is a new Brian Douglas in town!

Thanks, that is a huge compliment. I see some of your videos are also in the Brian Douglas style so it is good to see other like-minded people here on KZread. Thanks for watching!
Professor can you make a course on PID and make a couples of projects on PID on that course.
Plz bring video on fractional order sliding mode control
Line follower gonna go krazy
Can an Op-Amp replace the PID controller?
can you please tell the name of the signal after using PID controller? Sometimes, we use error between altitude and set point, and after using PID, it becomes speed . I wonder how? Am I the only one who cannot understand it properly.. please explain

It depends on what system specifically you are controlling. For instance, if you are controlling a motor to have a specific speed, it would be speed. But if you are controlling a motor to maintain a given position, like a servomotor, it would be position. The device after the PID controller in general, is called the plant, as in factory. It's a representation of the dynamics of the process you are controlling. It represents how the output of your controller is turned into a signal to drive the actuator (motor, piston, etc) that controls the system being controlled, and turns it into the physical measurement that is of interest to control. As an example, if you are controlling a DC servomotor to maintain a certain position, the plant dynamics would consist of a model for the coil inductance (L), the coil resistance (R), the rotational inertia of the motor and all that is attached to it (J), the motor field constant (K) that relates current to torque (and likewise speed to back EMF), and the drag it experiences (D). The controller would produce a voltage that would then indirectly determine the current that the motor coil receives, and the torque that propels it forward. Here's a diagram that show a DC motor's dynamics, and the interaction among all these terms: forums.mikeholt.com/attachments/1691248709486-png.2566732/ For a free-spinning motor (no external mechanical load), you can use this diagram to show that the dynamics of the motor can be represented by this transfer function, that relates input voltage U(s) to speed Omega(s): Omega(s)/U(s) = 1/((D + J s)*(L s + R) + K^2) This would be the plant transfer function, if you were interested in controlling the speed. If you were interested in controlling the position like a servomotor, then we'd integrate to find the plant transfer function would be: Theta(s)/U(s) = 1/(s*((D + J s)*(L s + R) + K^2)) If your goal is for Theta(s) to track a desired input angle X(s), then you'd put this plant in series with its controller, and with a feedback loop. This controller would translate the error of X(s) - Theta(s), and use it to generate the voltage necessary to control this motor.

In D control
You are describing hysteresis.
As long you not describe what is happening in G(s), all this video is poor and useless
