Design of a MRAS, Speed and Flux Estimators used in Sensorless Control of Induction Motors
نویسنده
چکیده
Model reference adaptive system (MRAS) based techniques are one of the best methods to estimate the rotor speed. Speed and torque control of an induction motor is usually attained by application of a speed or position sensor. However, these require the additional mounting space, reduce the reliability and increase the cost of the motor. The recent trend in field oriented control (FOC) is towards the use of sensorless techniques that avert the use of speed sensor and flux sensor. This paper seeks to provide a direct comparison between two technics of induction motor MRAS based speed estimators, one based on the rotor flux and the other based on the back EMF. Comparison between the two techniques is made through computer simulations. KeywordsInduction motor drive, adaptive observer, MRAS, stability analysis.

Sensorless Indirect Field Oriented Control of Single-sided Linear Induction Motor With a Novel Sliding Mode MRAS Speed Estimator
This paper proposes a new sliding mode control (SMC) based model reference adaptive system (MRAS) for sensorless indirect field oriented control (IFOC) of a single-sided linear induction motor (SLIM). The operation of MRAS speed estimators dramatically depends on adaptation mechanism. Fixed-gain PI controller is conventionally used for this purpose which may fail to estimate the speed correctl...

In this paper, a novel stator current based Model Reference Adaptive System (MRAS) estimator for speed estimation in the speed-sensorless vector controlled induction motor drives is presented. In the proposed MRAS estimator, measured stator current of the induction motor is considered as a reference model. The estimated stator current is produced in an adjustable model to compare with the measu...

This paper suggests novel sensorless speed estimation for an induction motor (IM) based on a stator current model reference adaptive system (IS-MRAS) scheme. The IS-MRAS scheme uses the error between the reference and estimated stator current vectors and the rotor speed. Observing rotor flux and the speed estimating using the conventional MRAS technique is confronted with certain problems relat...

In this paper, a neural network model reference adaptive system speed observer is designed, which can be used in speed control of linear induction motors (LIMs).

متن کاملIterative Tuning Feedforward Speed Estimator for Sensorless Induction Motors
For speed sensorless induction motors under field-oriented control (FOC), where the motor speed and angle are not measured, the speed control tracking bandwidth is mainly limited by the convergence rate of the state estimator. Prevailing speed-sensorless induction motors suffer significant performance degradation from removing the encoder, which limits their applications to fields requiring low...
