<![CDATA[The optimal design of the automatic voltage regulators for a synchronous machine are positively reflected on the quality of voltage stability. This paper is concerned with the design of an AVR by adopting three control techniques. The first one was designed according to the traditional proportional integration-derived (PID) controller while the fuzzy logic was adopted in design the second powerful controller, finally the fuzzy PID controller for an automatic voltage regulator (AVR) based on fuzzy logic technology, selftuning fuzzy proportional integration-derived (STFPID) have been designed to tuning the gains of the PID controller (KP, KI and KD). To confirm the efficiency of the proposed control systems, a simulation was carried out, and the results showed that the designed STFPID controller achieves the best performance of the AVR system, and gives the preferable tracking low rise time, lower overshoot, least stetting time, minimal steady state error, and gives the ideal response against PID and fuzzy logic technology.]]>
