Nearly all of the electrical power used throughout the world is generated by synchronous machines driven by either hydro or steam turbines or by combustion engines. Synchronous Machine is generally dedicated to high power due to the fact that they have a controllable power factor and a higher efficiency than the induction motor of corresponding rating. In recent years different control schemes ...

An incremental motion control problem, specified by a trapezoidal speed command profile using multisegment sliding mode control (MSSMC), is proposed to control synchronous reluctance motor (SRM) servo drive. Since the control gains in the MSSMC are fixed, chattering responses occur due to large external load disturbances. Therefore, a neural network (ANN) is developed to tune the control gains ...

This paper presents the methodology of tuning two position servo drive systems with Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM): Field Oriented Control (FOC) based on current model of motor and FOC based on voltage model of motor. These two strategies are Vector Control (VC) methods and provide a solution for high performance drives but the choice one of these algorithms determines the type of i...

The paper presents a space-vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) inverter feeding a permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). The SVPWM inverter enables to feed the motor with a higher voltage with low harmonic distortions than the conventional sinusoidal PWM inverter. The control strategy of the inverter is the voltage / frequency control method, which is based on the space-vector modulation ...

In this work, an on-line dead-time compensation method based on a time delay control for a pulse-modulation (PM) synchronous motor drive is presented. Disturbance voltages caused by the dead time are estimated on-line without any additional circuits nor off-line experimental measurements. The estimated disturbance voltages are fed back to the voltage reference as compensation. The proposed meth...

Model-based predictive control (MPC) is one of the most efficient techniques that is widely used in industrial applications. In such controllers, increasing the prediction horizon results in better selection of the optimal control signal sequence. On the other hand, increasing the prediction horizon increase the computational time of the optimization process which make it impossible to be imple...

In this paper, the position control of a detuned indirect field oriented control (IFOC) induction motor servo drive is studied. A PID-fuzzy logic position controller (PID-FLPC) is designed and analyzed to achieve high-dynamic performance both in the position command tracking and load regulation characteristics for robotic applications. The performance of the proposed PID-fuzzy logic and synchro...

In this paper, using a personal computer (PC), the practical implementation of scalar and vector control methods on a three–phase rotor surface- type permanent magnet synchronous machine drive is discussed. Based on the machine dynamic equations and the above control strategies, two block diagrams are presented first for closed-loop speed controlling of the machine drive/system. Then, the desig...

This paper presents an analysis by which the dynamic performances of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) motor is controlled through a hysteresis current loop and an outer speed loop with different controllers. The dynamics of the wind turbine pumping drive system with (PI) and a fuzzy sliding mode (FSM) speed controllers are presented. In order to optimize the overall system efficiency...
