This paper deals with new fuzzy controller for handling systems having large dead time and nonlinearities, via approximations of large rule fuzzy logic controller by simplest fuzzy controller (4 rules). The error between large rule fuzzy controller and simplest fuzzy controller are compensated by proposed compensating factors. These compensating factors are modified to handle large dead time and nonlinear systems. Features of proposed approximations are discussed. The concept of variation of nonlinearity factor of fuzzy controller is also discussed. Various processes from different literatures are utilized to demonstrate the proposed methodology. After doing many simulations it has been found that with proper tuning, overall system handles large dead time and nonlinearity which may be difficult by conventional methods. The processes are also simulated for load disturbances and change of operating point (set point) and it has been found that proposed scheme is robust for long dead times.
