Abstract

This paper relates the design of various controllers for regulating the voltage within limits. AVR is the automatic voltage regulator device that stabilized the output voltages under the influence of variable loads. AVR regulates the voltage but there are too many fluctuations in voltage, PID controller, Fuzzy logic controller, and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) are designed for tackling such issues. By comparing the output of these controllers better and optimal results are concluded. For constant, continuous, and stabilized output voltages, optimal  tuning of PID controller, fuzzy logic, and ANN controller is necessary, and their tuning schemes are presented by computer simulations in an AVR system.
