Emergent functions of HDL-based controller of inverted pendulum in consideration for disturbance

With dramatic advances in electronics, electronic control has been increasingly applied to control based on sensors and actuators and improved energy efficiency and performance. With increasing system complexity, however, time required to develop the system controller has increased. To automate electronic controller design, we apply evolutionary computation, starting with the targeted inverted pendulum and task definition, followed by the framework of applying a genetic algorithm to controller design automation, focusing on chromosome coding. We then present the fitness function we use to develop the controller automatically. Evolutionary simulation verified the feasibility of our framework.
