Simulation Based Elevator Group Control System for Multi-Storey Building

Abstract

In this work fuzzy logic based controller for Elevator Group Control System (EGCS) is proposed. The most complex problem is to control the multi-elevator in a multi-storey building and there are different approaches to solve the problem. The approach used based on the Simulink model and the fuzzy logic controller which is proposed to choose the most appropriate elevator for a hall call generated by passenger/user. The simulation was carried out by giving the input which was used to calculate the input for fuzzy logic controller. The data obtained from the simulation model and the input source provided to the fuzzy based controller priority of each elevator car can be calculated. The maximum priority elevator car is responded for its hall call operation. The input was based on hall call assignment method. This work can assist in analyzing the performance of the Elevators.
