INTRODUCTION
Multilayer perceptrons have been applied successfully
to solve some difficult and diverse problems by training
them in a supervised manner with a highlypopular
algorithm known as the error back-propagation
algorithm. This algorithm is based on the errorcorrection learning rule. One of this algorithm is: fuzzy
control of back-propagation learning. Fuzzy set theory
was originated by Zedah(1) (1965,1973) to provide a
mathematical tool for dealing with linguistic variables.
A fuzzy set is defined as a set whose boundary is not
sharp, and every set is defined as a set whose boundary
is not sharp, and every fuzzy set is characterized by a
membership function, which varies from 0 to 1. A

converts the scale mapping to corresponding universe
of discourse, that yields a nonfuzzy (crisp) control
action from an inferred fuzzy control action (3), (4).
The proposed fuzzy controller is based on integralproportional controller (IP) (j), (6), where the
experimental setup will be discussed in section 4. The
system is trained and the stored data-file is then
prepared for the simulation of fuzzy controller using
Matlab program. This learning technique is called:
Learning by Examples and it may be considered
simply as a nonlinear input-output mapping. The
training data may be viewed as a Curve Fitting
problem. The concept is illustrated in Figure 2.

SIMULATION STUDY
In order to validate the coutrol strategies, digital
simulation studies were made using Matlab program.
The parameters of the drive system are illustrated in
section 4 It is often said that the design of neural
network and fuzzy control using the back-propagation
algorithm is more of an art then a science in the sense
that many of the numerous factors involved in the
design are indeed the results of ones ownpersonal
experience. The general input variables considered in
the fuzzy rules are the loop error and the change in
loop error and the output is the firing angle Alpha.

CONCLUSIONS
A new model of fuzzy controller has beendeveloped,
built and successfully applied for a dc motor drive in real
time. In spite of the advantages in fuzzy control,the
main limitation is the lack of a systematic procedure for
design and analysis of the control system. Generally, a
trial-and-emor iterative approach is taken which may be
time-consuming. Moreover, due to the lack of
completeness of the d e base, the controller must be able
to give a meaningful action for every condition of the
process. This paper proposes a straight-forward method
of creating a mathematical model which has been
successfully applied to a variety of membership functions.
This new approach offers a key of advantage over the
traditional fuzzy controller, which makes it suitable for
several dc motor drive applications. The project focused
the attention to apply the prediction of calculated current
as one method of current control which can replace the
current loop. The simulation and experimental studies
clearly indicate the superior of fuzzy control. It is well
seen in the case of sudden change due to load torque
disturbances because it is inherently adaptive in nature.
The final experimental results clarify the success, the
simplicity and the generality of the design software
controller. The extension of this research is to apply the
neural network techniques for the dc motor applications.
