Abstract: This talk concerns the delay margin achievable using PID controllers for linear time-invariant (LTI) systems subject to variable, unknown time delays. The basic issue to be investigated addresses the question: What is the largest range of time delay within which there exists a single PID controller to stabilize the delay plants in question? Delay margin is a fundamental measure of robust stabilization against uncertain time delays and poses a fundamental, longstanding problem that remains open except in simple, isolated cases. In this talk, we discuss a frequency-domain approach, focusing on low-order time-delay systems stabilizable by PID controllers. We develop explicit expressions of the exact delay margin and its upper bounds achievable by a PID controller for first- and second-order unstable systems, with unknown constant and possibly time-varying delays. The effect of nonminimum phase zeros is also examined. PID controllers are widely used to regulate industrial processes which are typically modeled by first- and second-order dynamics. Our results herein should thus provide useful guidelines in tuning PID controllers and in particular, the fundamental limits of delay within which a PID controller may robustly stabilize the delay processes.
