Adaptive control of permanent magnet synchronous machines with disturbance estimation

In this paper,an adaptive control scheme is introduced for permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs)as an alternative to classical control techniques.The adaptive control strategy capitalizes on the machine’s inverse dynamics to achieve accurate tracking by using an observer to approximate disturbance in the form of friction and load torque.The controller’s output is then fed to a space vector pulse width modulation(SVPWM)algorithm to produce duty cycles for the inverter.The control scheme is validated through a set of simulations on an experimentally validated PMSM model.Results for different situations highlight its high speed tracking accuracy and high performance in compensating for friction and load disturbances of various magnitudes.     

Guaranteed transient performance based control with input saturation for near space vehicles

This paper describes the design of guaranteed transient performance based attitude control for the near space vehicle(NSV)with control input saturation using the backstepping method.To improve the robust controllability of the NSV,the parameter adaptive method is used to tackle the integrated effect of unknown time-varying disturbance and control input saturation.Based on the backstepping technique and parameter estimated outputs,a robust attitude control scheme is proposed for the NSV with input saturation.A novel robust attitude control scheme is then proposed based on a prescribed performance bound(PPB)which characterizes the convergence rate and maximum overshoot of the attitude tracking error.The closed-loop system stability under both the developed robust attitude control schemes is proved using Lyapunov’s method and uniformly asymptotical convergence of all closed-loop signals is guaranteed.Finally,simulation results are given to show the effectiveness of both the proposed robust constrained attitude control schemes.     

functional control of integrating process based on impulse response

The predictive model is built according to the characteristics of the impulse response of integrating process. In order to eliminate the permanent offset between the setpoint and the process output in the presence of the load disturbance, a novel error compensation method is proposed. Then predictive functional control of integrating process is designed. The method given generates a simple control structure, which can significantly reduce online coInputation. Furthermore, the tuning of the controller is fairly straightforward. Simulation results indicate that the designed control system is relatively robust to the parameters variation of the process.     

Control of systems with sector-bounded nonlinearities: robust stability and command effort minimization by disturbance rejection

The paper shows that a control strategy with disturbance rejection is able to reduce the control effort to a minimum, ensuring at the same time a desired performance level. The disturbance to be rejected is completely unknown, except for a sectorial bound. The control unit is endowed with an extended state observer which includes a disturbance dynamics, whose state tracks the unknown disturbance to be rejected. In summary, the novel contributions of the paper are the following. First, we derive a robust stability condition for the proposed control scheme, holding for all the nonlinearities that are bounded by a known (or estimated) maximum slope. Second, we propose a novel approach for designing the observer and state feedback gains, which guarantee robust closed-loop stability. Third, we show that the designed control system yields, with a minimum control effort, the same control performance as a robust state feedback control, which on the contrary may require a larger command activity. Two simulated case studies are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.     

Robust adaptive fuzzy control scheme for nonlinear system with uncertainty

In this paper, a robust adaptive fuzzy control scheme for a class of nonlinear system with uncertainty is proposed. First, using prior knowledge about the plant we obtain a fuzzy model, which is called the generalized fuzzy hyperbolic model （GFHM）. Secondly, for the case that the states of the system are not available an observer is designed and a robust adaptive fuzzy output feedback control scheme is developed. The overall control system guarantees that the tracking error converges to a small neighborhood of origin and that all signals involved are uniformly bounded. The main advantages of the proposed control scheme are that the human knowledge about the plant under control can be used to design the controller and only one parameter in the adaptive mechanism needs to be on-line adjusted.     

Robust current and speed control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor using SMC and ADRC

A second-order ordinary differential equation model is originally constructed for the phase q current system of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). The phase q current model contains the effect of a counter electromotive force (CEMF), which introduces nonlinearity to the system. In order to compensate the nonlinearity and system uncertainties, a traditional sliding mode controller (SMC) combined with a low-pass filter (also known as a modified SMC) is designed on the phase q current model. The low-pass filter overcomes chattering effects in control efforts, and hence improves the performance of the controller. The phase q current control system is proved to be stable using Lyapunov approach. In addition, an alternative active disturbance rejection controller (ADRC) with a reduced-order extended state observer (ESO) is applied to control the speed output of PMSM. Both SMC and ADRC are simulated on the PMSM system. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of these two controllers in successfully driving the current and speed outputs to desired values despite load disturbances and system uncertainties.

H ∞ robust control of DC-AC interfaced microsource in microgrids

This paper focuses on the direct current-alternating current (DC-AC) interfaced microsource based H∞ robust control strategies in microgrids. It presents detail of a DC-AC interfaced microsource model which is connected to the power grid through a controllable switch. A double loop current-regulated voltage control scheme for the DC-AC interface is designed. In the case of the load disturbance and the model uncertainties, the inner voltage and current loop are produced based on the H∞ robust control strategies. The outer power loop uses the droop characteristic controller. Finally, the scheme is simulated using the Matlab/Simulink. The simulation results demonstrate that DC-AC interfaced microsource system can supply high quality power. Also, the proposed control scheme can make the system switch smoothly between the isolated mode and grid-connected mode.     

Sensorless torque control scheme of induction motor for hybrid electric vehicle

In this paper, the sensorless torque robust tracking problem of the induction motor for hybrid electric vehicle （HEV） applications is addressed, Because motor parameter variations in HEV applications are larger than in industrial drive system, the conventional field-oriented control （FOC） provides poor performance. Therefore, a new robust PI-based extension of the FOC controller and a speed-flux observer based on sliding mode and Lyapunov theory are developed in order to improve the overall performance. Simulation results show that the proposed sensorless torque control scheme is robust with respect to motor parameter variations and loading disturbances. In addition, the operating flux of the motor is chosen optimally to minimize the consumption of electric energy, which results in a significant reduction in energy losses shown by simulations.     

Robust control of a hydraulically driven flexible arm

A new robust controller is proposed to regulate both flexural vibrations and rigid body motion of a hydraulically driven flexible ann. The controller combines backsteppmg control and sliding mode to arrive at a controller capable of dealing with a nonlinear system with uncertainties. The sliding mode technique is used to achieve an asymptotic joint angle and vibration regulation in the presence of payload uncertainty by providing a virtual torque input at the joint while the backstepping technique is used to regtthte the spool position of a hydraulic valve to provide the required torque. It is shown that there is no chatter in the hydraulic valve, which results in smoother operation of the system.     

Nonlinear adaptive speed control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor: A perturbation estimation approach

This paper presents a nonlinear adaptive control (NAC) scheme for the speed regulation of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) based on perturbation estimation and feedback linearizing control. All PMSM system’s unknown nonlinearities, parameter uncertainties, and external disturbances including unknown time-varying load torque disturbance, are defined as lumped perturbation terms, which are estimated by designing perturbation observers. The estimates are used to adaptively compensate the real perturbations and achieve adaptive feedback linearizing control of the original nonlinear system. The proposed control scheme does not require accurate system model and full state feedback. Stability of the close-loop system with proposed NAC is investigated via Lyapunov theory, and the effectiveness of proposed NAC scheme is verified through both simulation and experimental studies. Both simulation and experimental results show that the proposed NAC scheme can provide less regulation error in speed tracking, better dynamic performance and robustness against parameter uncertainties and load torque disturbance, compared with conventional vector control and load torque estimated based control.

Hybrid recurrent wavelet neural network control of PMSM servo-drive system for electric scooter

Due to nonlinear uncertainties of the electric scooter such as nonlinear friction force of the transmission belt and clutch, these will lead to degenerate tracking responses in command current and speed of the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) servo-driven electric scooter. In this study a novel hybrid recurrent wavelet neural network (HRWNN) control system is proposed to raise robustness of the PMSM servo-driven electric scooter under the occurrence of the variation of rotor inertia and load torque disturbance. First, the field-oriented mechanism is applied to formulate the dynamic equation of the PMSM servo drive. Then, a novel HRWNN control system is proposed to control motion for a PMSM servo-driven electric scooter. The HRWNN control system composed of a supervisor control, a RWNN and a compensated control with adaptive law. The online parameter training methodology with adaptive law in the RWNN is derived based on the Lyapunov stability theorem. Then adaptive law of the parameter in the RWNN can be updated by using the gradient descent method and the backpropagation algorithm. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is verified by experimental results.

Disturbance Observer Based Speed Control of PMSM Using Fractional Order PI Controller

In this paper, fractional order PI (FOPI) control is developed for speed control of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). Designing the parameters for FOPI controller is a challenging task, especially for nonlinear systems like PMSM. All three PI controllers in the conventional vector controlled speed drive are replaced by FOPI controllers. Design of these FOPI controllers is based on the locally linearized model of PMSM around an operating point. This operating point changes with the load torque. The novelty of the work reported here is in use of Non Linear Disturbance Observer (NLDO) to estimate load torque to obtain this new operating point. All three FOPI controllers are then designed adaptively using this new operating point. The scheme is tested on simulation using MATLAB/SIMULINK and results are presented.
