Three speed controllers for an axial magnetic flux switched reluctance motor with only one stator, are described and experimentally tested. As it is known, when current pulses are imposed in their windings, high ripple torque is obtained. In order to reduce this ripple, a control strategy with modified current shapes is proposed. A workbench consisting of a machine prototype and the control sys...

Original scientific paper This paper presents the use of proportional integral (PI), proportional integral derivative (PID) and fuzzy logic (FL) speed controller techniques in the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive. PI and PID controllers require precise linear mathematical model of the system. On the other hand, FL needs linguistic description of the system. The dynamic response o...

Article Info Abstract This paper presents a Hybrid Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Control technique for speed control of BLDC motor drives. The proposed controller is an integration of adaptive neuro fuzzy, fuzzy PID and PD controllers. The objective is to utilize the best attribute of fuzzy PID and PD controllers, which exhibits a better response than the neuro fuzzy controllers. The error back propagat...

PI and PID controllers continue to be popular methods in industrial applications. It is well known that linear PI and PID controllers result from the application of modelbased controller design methods to linear firstand second-order systems. It is shown that nonlinear PI and PID controllers result from the application of nonlinear controller design methods to nonlinear firstand second-order sy...

Fuzzy technology is adaptive and easily applicable in different areas.Fuzzy logic provides powerful tools to capture the perception of natural phenomena. The paper deals with tuning of neuro-fuzzy controllers for integrating plant and for integrating plants with time delay. The designed approach is verified on three examples by simulations and compared plants with classical PID control. Designe...

This paper analyses the current Internet congestion control mechanisms and presents two control theoretical approaches based on the existing Proportional-Integral-plus-Derivative (PID) controllers. The parameters were selected to ensure the stability of the control loop. It is shown that a modified PID controller offers a quick response, good utilisation and fair share of available bandwidth an...
