This is in view of the fact that the recent application is mainly in monitoring domain due to lack of confidence in control aspect. WirelessHART has an edge over its counterpart as it is based on the successful Wired HART protocol with over 30 million devices as of 2009. Recent works on control have primarily focused on maintaining the traditional PID control structure which is proven not adequate for the wireless environment. In contrast, Internal Model Control (IMC), a promising technique for delay compensation, disturbance rejection and setpoint tracking has not been investigated in the context of WirelessHART. Therefore, this paper discusses the control design using IMC approach with a focus on wireless processes. The simulation and experimental results using real-time WirelessHART hardware-in-the-loop simulator (WH-HILS) indicate that the proposed approach is more robust to delay variation of the network than the PID. © 2017 date: 2018 publisher: ISA - Instrumentation, Systems, and Automation Society official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85042362892&doi=10.1016%2fj.isatra.2017.12.010&partnerID=40&md5=880c105b2e22e73e09ec42506e9b0661 id_number: 10.1016/j.isatra.2017.12.010 full_text_status: none publication: ISA Transactions volume: 75 pagerange: 236-246 refereed: TRUE issn: 00190578 citation: Tran, C.D. and Ibrahim, R. and Asirvadam, V.S. and Saad, N. and Sabo Miya, H.
