In this paper a design methodology ("AN INTELLIGENT HYBRID FUZZY PID CONTROLLER") is used that blends the classical PID and the fuzzy controllers in an intelligent way and thus a new intelligent hybrid controller has been achieved. Basically, in this design methodology, the classical PID and fuzzy controller have been combined by a blending mechanism that depends on a certain function of actuating error. Moreover, an intelligent switching scheme is induced on the blending mechanism that makes a
