In this paper, an interval type-2 fuzzy fractional order PID controller (IT2F-FOPIDC) based on particle swarm optimization is proposed. The proposed controller has two adjustable degree of freedom parameters, so the control range of the controller parameters becomes larger and can control the controlled object more flexibly. Aiming at the difficult problem of many controller parameters and tuning, this paper introduces particle swarm optimization algorithm to optimize the controller parameters. In order to avoid the problems of long iteration time and high computational cost caused by Karnik-Mendel reduction algorithm, the enhanced iterative with stop condition algorithm is selected for the proposed controller. Finally, the proposed controller is applied to the second order systems with time delays. Simulation results show that the proposed strategy has faster response time and smaller oscillation amplitude, and its performance is better than fuzzy controller and interval type-2 fuzzy controller.
