In this industrial induction motor speed and torque controlled drive system, the closed loop control usually requires the measurement of speed or position of amotor. However a sensorless drive of an induction motor has several advantages ; low cost and mechanical simplicity. Thus this paper investigates a field oriented control method without speed and flux sensors. The proposed control strategy is based on the Model Reference Adaptive System(MRAS) using a new flux estimator which replaces integrators with two lag circuits as the reference model. This algorithm may overcome several shortages of conventional MRAS such as integrator problems, small EMF at low speed. The simulation and experimental results indicate good speed responses.

The paper presents an accurate loss model based controller of an induction motor to calculate the optimal air gap flux. The model includes copper losses, iron losses, harmonic losses, friction and windage losses, and stray losses. These losses are represented as a function of the air gap flux. By using the calculated optimal air gap flux compared with rated flux for speed sensorless indirect vector controlled induction motor, an improvement in motor efficiency is achieved. The motor speed performance is improved using a fuzzy logic speed controller instead of a PI controller. The fuzzy logic speed controller was simulated using the fuzzy control interface block of MATLAB/SIMULINK program. The control algorithm is experimentally tested within a PC under RTAI-Linux. The simulation and experimental results show the improvement in motor efficiency and speed performance.

Recently, the elimination of speed sensors has been one of the important requirement in vector control systems, because the speed sensor spoil the ruggedness and simplicity of induction motor. This paper proposes sensorless vector control for high performance of induction motor. The proposed vector control scheme is based on a rotor flux and speed which are calculated from the stator voltage and currents with improved flux estimator. The characteristics of vector control employing stator voltage and current generally deteriorate as the speed gets lower acause the calculated rotor flux depends on the stator resistance and it is difficult to calculate rotor flux at low speed of standstill. This new control system is robust with respect to variations of the stator resistance and it makes possible to calculated rotor flux at low speed of standstill. These feature are verified by the simulation results.

In the evaluation of performance for the algorithm of sensorless speed control, the ability of speed control in low speed range and starting is important points. First of all, stability of low speed control is highly required in the application which needs high performance in speed control. For this requirement, this paper represents simple method to estimate the rotor position by comparing reference linkage flux with it's estimation. In the estimation of linkage flux, this paper uses voltage-current model for increasing the performance of speed control in low speed range.

This paper describes a field orientation control of an induction motor without any speed transducer and proposes a wide-range speed control strategy with the field orientation algorithm. The difference at impedances between the direct and quadrature axis at the injected signal is used for the sensorless field orientation control. But this algorithm has some limitations and should be supported by other method at high speed. In this paper, a sensorless speed control at an induction motor for wide speed range operation is proposed. The proposed algorithm is verified by experimental results.

This paper considers pulse width modulation (PWM) methods which are used in 3-phase brushless DC motor controller. Due to many disadvantages of bipolar PWM method, unipolar PWM method is mostly used in industrial field. In constant speed control application, the unipolar PWM method shows a good performance of speed control. But in the wide range of speed control application, it shows a poor performance especially when deceleration is needed. So we propose hybrid PWM method that utilizes two PWM methods according to the sign of speed controller output. The simulation and experimental result shows that the proposed method improves a speed control performance of the brushless DC motor which is applied to industrial sewing machines.

This paper deals with speed control of DC servo motor using a Fuzzy tuning observer. Speed sensor detect a speed of rotor continuously. But it have a limit as a driving speed to detect speed precisely. So it is problem to improve the performance of the driving system. To solve the problem, it is studied to detect a speed of DC motor without sensor. In particular, study on the method to estimate the speed using the observer is performed a lot. In this parer, the gain of the observer is properly set up using the fuzzy observer. The fuzzy observer has a superior transient characteristic and is easy to implement compared the existing method is designed. It estimate the derivative of the armature current directly using the armature current measured in the DC motor. It estimate the speed of the rotor using the differentiation. It is proposed speed sensorless control method using the estimated speed. Optimal gain of Luenberger observer is set up using the fuzzy observer and adapted speed control of DC servo motor low speed operation. It is proved excellence and feasibility of the presented observer from the comparison tested a case with a speed sensor and a case without a speed sensor which used a highly efficient drive and 200W DC servo motor starting system.

In the present paper, a speed control algorithm with fast response characteristics is proposed to reduce the shift shock of medium/large-sized electric vehicles equipped with a two-speed AMT. Shift shocks, which are closely related with to the vehicles' ride comfort, occur due to the difference between the speed of the motor shaft and the load shaft when the gear is engaged. The proposed speed control method for shift shock reduction can quickly synchronize speeds occurring due to differences in the gear ratios during speed shifts in AMT systems by speed command feed-forward compensation and a state feedback controller. As a result, efficient shift results without any shift shock can be obtained. The proposed speed control method was applied to a 9 m- long medium- sized electric bus to demonstrate the validity through a simulated analysis and experiments.

In this paper, static and dynamic shift control stategies of CVT speed ratio are suggested. For the static shift control, in order to operate engine on the optimal operating region, a fuzzy control logic is used. In the fuzzy logic, S- factor that is defined as a degree of sportiness is introduced. Simulation results show that the static shift control strategy based on the fuzzy logic selects the optimal operating point automatically between the economy and the sporty mode corresponding to the driver's desire and the driving condition. For the dynamic shift control strategy, a shift speed map is suggested which determines the shift sped as fast or slow based on Δi, the difference between the desired speed ratio id and the actual speed ratio i, and throttle opening. It is seen from the simulation results that the CVT shift speed is determined by the dynamic shift control strategy to provide appropriate performance and comfort for the driver's demand and driving condition. Additionally, experiments are performed to investigate the dynamic performance of the shift speed for the lift foot up. From the experimental results, it is found that improved shift feeling can be obtained by the dynamic shift control strategy when lift foot up occurs.

A new control method of spindle induction motor drive is proposed in this paper. In a conventional control method, the vector control was employed in the low speed range, while the constant V/f(volt-per-hertz) PWM control was employed in the high speed range. The two control modes were automatically selected at an intermediate speed. In a proposed control method, the direct vector-control with an encoder is employed in the low speed range(from 0 to 8,000rpm), and the vector control without an encoder is employed in th high speed(from 8,000 to 15,000rpm) by using flux observer and speed estimator. This paper describes problem of control method in a conventional spindle induction motor drive and proposes contort method as variation of motor speed.
