Abstract: This paper shows the study of tuning the Proportional-Integral-Derivatives (PID) in the application of coupled tank system. The controller was tuned by using an optimization technique which is a Firefly Algorithm (FA) and a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) Algorithm. Both FA and PSO performance were evaluated by using performance index of Integral Time Square Error (ITSE). The systems response of FA and PSO were gathered and compared in term of transient responses, ITSE and standard deviation by considering the system condition of with and without a disturbance. The simulation is conducted by using MATLAB software. The result shows that the FA giving a better system performance compared to PSO in term of overall transient responses.
