Abstract

Recently, the wireless technology has played a very important role in the industrial world. WirelessHART and ISA100.11a are the two most standards used in the industry so far. On the other hand, the wired networks are dominating the industrial sectors due to their significant transmission reliability and high security. However, the wired networks require higher maintenance cost and do not support network reconfiguration. In this paper, we will study the performance of a composition control over wired and wireless network. The proposed industrial composition control system in this paper is represented by a three-tank system whose outlet stream concentration is controlled using a concentrated stream of control reagent comprising water and solute. The objective is to design a PID controller using Closed-loop Ziegler Nichols tuning method for the composition control system and further improve the performance of the system by fine-turning the PID parameters. The same parameters of PID controller, that are used to control the system through wired network, are taken and implemented on wireless network using MATLAB Simulink with the aid of TrueTime toolbox. The behavior of both systems is then compared and analyzed.
