Fuzzy logic controller for an inverted pendulum system using quantum genetic optimization

In this paper, we propose a new generalized design methodology of intelligent robust fuzzy control systems based on quantum genetic algorithm (QGA) called quantum fuzzy model that enhance robustness of fuzzy logic controllers. The QGA is adopted because of their capabilities of directed random search for global optimization to find the parameters of the shape and width of membership functions and rule set of the FLC to obtain the optimal fuzzy controller simultaneously. We test the optimal FLC obtained by the quantum computing applied on the control of dynamic balance and motion of cart-pole balancing system. We compare the proposed technique with existing mamdani fuzzy logic controller which is designed through conventional genetic algorithm. Simulation results reveal that QGA performs better than conventional GA in terms of running speed and optimizing capability.
