Design of a general purpose fuzzy logic controller

In this study, a general purpose ten input, one output fuzzy logic controller (called GABDEN) is designed and implemented. GABDEN can be used in the control of all systems which have upto ten inputs and one output. A personal computer constitutes the center of the logic. The program of the computer is prepared in Quick Basic 7.1. A sixteen inputs, one output and twelve bit ready made card is employed for analog inputs and outputs. The temperature control of a room is taken as an application example for GABDEN. In this application the inner temperature, outer temperature, humidity and weather quality are chosen as input variables and the required heater power is specified as the output.
