Classic PID controller based on “Ziegler-Nichols method” is designed and implemented on system. In order to have better performance, Genetic Algorithm based on step response optimization, is used to optimize PID controller performance and compared with classic method. Finally, step responses comparison for each transfer functions, showed that Genetic Algorithm with PID control synthesis presents better efficiency than the classic PID controller.
