A dead-beat type digital controller for the direct torque control of an induction motor

In this paper, a dead-beat type digital controller has been introduced to overcome the problems of a conventional direct torque controller. The proposed induction motor drive with a digital dead-beat controller shows good transient response and negligible steady-state error even at a low switching frequency, which is needed for high power machines used for transportation. Including the rotor dynamics, the stability condition and steady-state error of the proposed control system have been examined in the z-plane. In addition, the good performance has been verified through the simulation and experiment. The flux and torque controllers have been designed with only stator voltage equations in the stator flux reference frame in order to take advantages of the direct torque control. Therefore, the proposed flux and torque controllers have simple forms and can be easily designed and implemented.     

Enhanced inverter switching for fast response direct torque control[of induction motor drives]

In classical direct torque control (DTC), an inverter switching event can occur once in each control update period. Because the nature of the inverter switching event is unconstrained, it is essential to limit the inverter switching frequency, and hence the control update period, to ensure that under no circumstances is the allowable switching frequency of any individual power device exceeded. Consequently the switching capability of individual power devices is generally under-utilized, and the control scheme produces high levels of ripple in the motor current and torque. This paper describes a new strategy for device switching and voltage vector selection in DTC. The basis of the strategy is an increase in the control update frequency, while limiting the switching rate of each inverter leg. Although the rate at which device switching events may occur is unchanged, the higher control update frequency leads to higher resolution timing of switching events. The advantages of the strategy, demonstrated by experimental results on a 3 kW induction motor drive, are a significant reduction in the steady-state torque ripple as well as a faster transient response     

A direct field-oriented controller for induction motor drives usingtapped stator windings

The implementation of a direct method of field orientation that requires little knowledge of machine parameters and uses only readily measurable quantities is discussed. The system uses tapped stator windings to measure the air-gap flux. The signals from the tapped windings are also used in a flux-regulation loop. A speed controller is implemented using the ripples created in the tapped windings by the motion of the rotor slots through the flux for speed information     

Band-constrained technique for direct torque control of induction motor

In this paper, a novel technique for the direct torque control (DTC) of an induction motor is proposed, which overcomes the trouble of high torque ripple afflicting the conventional DTC technique. With the novel technique, the inverter voltage vector selected from the switching table is applied for the time interval needed by the torque to reach the upper (or the lower) limit of the band, where the time interval is calculated from a suitable modeling of the torque dynamics. By this approach, the control system emulates the operation of a torque hysteresis controller of analog type since the application time of the inverter voltage vector is dictated by the allowed torque excursion and not by the sampling period. It is shown by experimental results that the technique yields a considerable reduction of the torque ripple. A further and ultimate reduction is obtained by compensating for the delay inherent in the discrete-time operation of the control system. The outcome is that the torque ripple of the motor is constrained within the hysteresis band of the torque controller, for a band of customary value. An ancillary merit of the technique is the almost full elimination of the average torque error inherent in the conventional technique. If the hysteresis band is shrunk, the torque ripple is bound to swing out the band limits. Under this circumstance, an extension of the technique is developed, which helps keep the torque ripple at minimum. To assess the characteristics of the proposed DTC technique, the following quantities: average torque error, rms value of the torque ripple, and inverter switching frequency are measured for different stator flux angular speeds and hysteresis bands of the torque and flux controllers. As a comparison, the same quantities are given for the conventional DTC technique.     

Probabilistic voltage harmonic analysis of direct torque controlled induction motor drives

In high frequency motor-drives such as direct torque controlled (DTC) induction motor drives, the motor harmonic loss, and electromagnetic interference are largely affected by the spectrum of the motor input voltage. Nonlinear elements in the control loop of DTC drive make harmonic analysis of the drive very complex compared to classical pulsewidth modulated controlled drives. In this paper, a probabilistic method to study the harmonic contents of voltage in DTC of induction motors is presented. The DTC voltage chain is simulated with a random process. Then, the autocorrelation function of voltage vectors is calculated and its power spectrum density is obtained. The effect of flux and torque hysteresis controller bands, machine parameters, and inverter dc-link voltage on the motor voltage spectrum is investigated. Major harmonics in the DTC voltage spectrum are specified and their behaviors are described. Simulation and experimental results are presented to justify the theoretical analysis.     

A robust speed controller for induction motor drives

A speed controller considering the effects of parameter variations and external disturbance for indirect field-oriented induction motor drives is proposed in this paper. First a microprocessor-based indirect field-oriented induction motor drive is implemented and its dynamic model at nominal case is estimated. Based on the estimated model, an integral plus proportional (IP) controller is quantitatively designed to match the prescribed speed tracking specifications. Then a dead-time compensator and a simple robust controller are designed and augmented to reduce the effects of parameter variations and external disturbances. The desired speed tracking control performance of the drive can be preserved under wide operating range, and good speed load regulating performance can also be obtained. Theoretic basis and implementation of the proposed controller are detailedly described. Some simulated and experimental results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller     

Direct torque control induction motor drives withself-commissioning based on Taguchi methodology

This paper presents the analysis and design of direct torque control (DTC) induction motor drives with self-commissioning. Neither motor parameters nor controller parameters are known a priori. The self-commissioning process consists of the calculation of motor parameters, including stator resistor, inertia and friction coefficient, as well as the design of the controller. The effects of several factors, including test conditions for deriving motor mechanical parameters and natural frequency for controller design, on the performance of speed response are investigated using Taguchi's method which is widely used in quality engineering to significantly reduce the number of experiments. Therefore, the presented drive system cannot only provide self-commissioning but also dramatically improve the performance of speed response, which is evaluated using the performance index of root-mean-squared error (RMSE) of speed. Experimental results derived from a PC-based experimental system are presented to fully support the theoretical development and analysis

Improved direct torque and flux vector control of PWM inverter-fedinduction motor drives

In this paper, a direct torque and stator flux vector control system is presented. The principle of this method was proposed by Takahashi and Noguchi in 1985. In contrast to the field oriented control, no coordinate transformation and current control loop is required. In practical application, however, problems occur with starting and operation in the zero speed region. This paper shows how, by introducing an additional carrier signal to the torque controller input, a robust start and improved operation in the low speed region can be achieved. The simulation and experimental results which illustrate the performances of the proposed system are presented. Also, nomograms for controller design are given     

Sensorless torque control of SyncRel motor drives

This paper describes a direct self-control (DSC) scheme for synchronous reluctance motor drives. The presented DSC scheme develops a new torque control methodology that does not require any position transducer to synchronize the stator current vector with the rotor. Such a control strategy differs from the conventional DSC approach in order to fit some specific requirements of synchronous reluctance (SyncRel) machines. First, torque and rotor position are controlled instead of torque and stator flux as in a conventional DSC scheme. Second, the operating sector is selected according to the actual position of the current vector rather than the position of the stator flux. The proposed methodology allows simplifying implementation of the torque control on SyncRel drives and reducing the global cost for medium-performance electric drives. Simulations and experimental tests on a 1.5-kW motor drive are provided to evaluate the consistency and the performance of the proposed control technique     

New antiwindup PI controller for variable-speed motor drives

The windup phenomenon appears and results in performance degradation when the proportional-integral (PI) controller output is saturated. A new antiwindup PI controller is proposed to improve the control performance of variable-speed motor drives, and it is experimentally applied to the speed control of a vector-controlled induction motor driven by a pulsewidth modulated (PWM) voltage-source inverter (VSI). The integral state is separately controlled, corresponding to whether the PI controller output is saturated or not. The experimental results show that the speed response has much improved performance, such as small overshoot and fast settling time, over the conventional antiwindup technique. Although the operating speed command is changed, similar control performance can be obtained by using the PI gains selected in the linear region     

A deadbeat current controller for field oriented induction motor drives

Accurate stator current control is essential in high performance field orientation-controlled induction motor drives. Any current error degrades the drive's performance in the same way as an incorrectly tuned field orientation. This paper presents an efficient current control scheme that can achieve high accuracy and a fast dynamic response. This scheme uses voltage decoupling and deadbeat control loops. The decoupling controller provides the voltage needed to oppose the motor's back EMF. The deadbeat controller reduces the current error as fast as possible and stabilizes the system. The control law does not require knowledge of the rotor flux and is independent of the field orientation control tuning. Good static and dynamic performances were obtained in both the simulation and experimental verifications. Because the motor leakage inductance and resistance information were required for this control method, the influence of the estimation errors for these parameters was also investigated. The results show that the leakage inductance model error might cause a current ripple. However, this parameter can be tuned to its correct value easily by inspecting the current response.     

An innovative direct self-control scheme for induction motor drives

The paper presents a new direct self-control (DSC) scheme for induction motor drives using the stator voltage third harmonic component in order to estimate the air-gap flux and the torque as well as to synchronize the supply voltage vector. Compared to previous DSC schemes the new one is independent from any motor parameter variation, specifically on stator resistance thus showing better performances at low speeds. The paper starts with a quick review on standard DSC main features pointing out the influence of stator resistance variations on the flux and torque control. The new DSC scheme is then introduced and evaluated by simulations and experimental tests on a 1.5 kW induction motor drive     

Decoupling control of induction motor drives

The decoupling control of induction machines is investigated. Three different schemes for decoupling-control methods based on stator flux, airgap flux, and rotor flux field regulation are developed. The control dynamics of each scheme are outlined and studied. Simulation results are presented to verify that these schemes provide decoupling control with excellent dynamic behavior. The transient and steady-state relationships between slip frequency and torque, under constant stator flux, airgap flux, and rotor flux operations, are simulated and compared. The sensitivity characteristics of the three methods of flux-control, machine fed by impressed currents and voltages, are also compared and studied. A prototype torque-drive system is implemented to demonstrate the decoupling control of a squirrel-cage induction machine     

Variable-structure direct torque control - a class of fast and robust controllers for induction machine drives

A family of variable-structure controllers for induction machine drives is presented, in which the principles of direct torque control (DTC), variable-structure control (VSC), and space-vector pulsewidth modulation are combined to ensure high-performance operation, both in the steady state and under transient conditions. Three new VSC schemes are designed following the DTC voltage-control-based philosophy. These provide robust, fast, and accurate torque and flux control, without the penalty of high chattering. Comparative results demonstrate that proposed techniques preserve the DTC transient merits, while the steady-state behavior is significantly improved. Experimental results prove the strong robustness, accuracy, quickness, and low-ripple sensor-less operation of a drive that uses the new schemes.
