This paper proposes a new design and implementation of multi-protocol IED for networked control system of multi-induction motor in industrial fields. The experimental multi-induction motor based multi-protocol IED of Modbus/LonTalks/TCP/IP module is designed and fabricated. This article addresses issues in architecture of LonWorks/Ethernet sever, embedded processors architecture for converting Modbus protocol to LonTalks protocol, integrating preconfigured software, and Internet technologies. It is also verified that the multi-induction motor control and monitoring system using LonWorks/Ethernet server have available, interoperable, reliable performance characteristics from the experimental results, especially, the seamless integration of TCP/IP networks with control networks allows access to any control point from anywhere. Thus, the results provide available technical data for remote distributed motor control system of industrial field or building microgrid with LonWorks BAS.

Endoscopes for industrial and medical fields are expected to have multi degree-of-freedom (DOF) motions. A multi-DOF ultrasonic motor we developed consists of a spherical rotor and a bar-shaped stator, and the rotor rotates around three perpendicular axes using three natural vibration modes of the stator. In this study, a multi-DOF unilateral master-slave system for active endoscope using the multi-DOF ultrasonic motor is developed. The configurations of master and slave arms for active endoscope are similar, so that an operator can easily handle the master-slave system. First, driving characteristics of the multi-DOF ultrasonic motor are measured in order to design the slave arm and its controller. Next, the master arm and the slave arm are designed. Then, the unilateral feedback controller for the master-slave system is developed. Finally, the motion control tests of rotor are conducted. As a result, the possibility of the endoscope is confirmed.

Multi-phase machines can be used in variable speed drives. Their applications include electric ship propulsion, 'more-electric aircraft' and traction applications, electric vehicles, and hybrid electric vehicles. Multi-phase machines enable independent control of a few numbers of machines that are connected in series in a particular manner with their supply being fed from a single voltage source inverter(VSI). The idea was first implemented for a five-phase series-connected two-motor drive system, but is now applicable to any number of phases more than or equal to five-phase. The number of series-connected machines is a function of the phase number of VSI. Theoretical and simulation studies have already been reported for number of multi-phase multi-motor drive configurations of series-connection type. Variable speed induction motor drives without mechanical speed sensors at the motor shaft have the attractions of low cost and high reliability. To replace the sensor, information concerning the rotor speed is extracted from measured stator currents and voltages at motor terminals. Open-loop estimators or closed-loop observers are used for this purpose. They differ with respect to accuracy, robustness, and sensitivity against model parameter variations. This paper analyses operation of an MRAS estimator based sensorless control of a vector controlled series-connected two-motor five-phase drive system with current control in the stationary reference frame. Results, obtained with fixed-voltage, fixed-frequency supply, and hysteresis current control are presented for various operating conditions on the basis of simulation results. The purpose of this paper is to report the first ever simulation results on a sensorless control of a five-phase two-motor series-connected drive system. The operating principle is given followed by a description of the sensorless technique.

In this paper, we propose a scheduling method for signal measurement and control algorithm execution in a multi-motor drive controller. The multi-motor controller which is used for vehicle control receives position/velocity command and performs position/velocity control and current control. Internal resource allocation and control algorithm execution timing are very important when one microcontroller is used for multi-motor drives. The control performance of the velocity control system is verified by varying ADC(Analog to Digital Converter) conversion timing and algorithm execution timing using real experiments.

We propose a high speed data communication method for motor drive systems with fast control cycle in order to collect state variables of motor control without degrading control performance. Ethernet is chosen for communication device, and multi-core DSP architecture is exploited for communication processing load distribution. The communication program including network protocol stack and motor control program are assigned to two separate cores, and data between two cores are exchanged using interrupt-based inter-process communication mechanism, which enables to achieve a high-speed communication performance without degrading the motor control performance. The performance of developed communication method is demonstrated by real experiments using TCP, UDP and Raw Socket protocols in an experimental setup consisting of TI's TMS320F28388D motor control card and MS Windows PC.

In this paper, we consider a cascaded type of control architecture for a multi motor-based feedback control system and propose an ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) resource allocation method to efficiently utilize the limited ADC resources. The purpose of the resource allocation method is to minimize both the motor position measurement error and the d-q current measurement error. The cascaded type of control architecture is applied in parallel to each motor to independently control the speed of a motor in the multi motor control system. All the control algorithms are implemented by software using a single microcontroller without using additional microcontrollers. It is illustrated by experiments that the speed and the torque of each motor are controlled precisely by the proposed control architecture with the efficient ADC allocation method.

This paper covers stability and stabilization of Multi-Excited Induction Motor used in numberous electric equipment system of industrial field. The induction motor with multi-excitation has tow sets of three-phase system : One is connected to the AC source to supply most power required at the load, and the other is to the inverter for variable frequency and/or magnitude of voltage. The conventional induction motor is operated under single excitation mode only, that is called induction mode. But in multi-excited induction motor both the induction mode and the synchronous mode are possible, and the proposed multi-excited induction motor can be driven as a synchronous motor by the extra three-phase input. At the synchronous mode the efficiency is improved so higher than that at induction mode or conventional induction motor. The rating of the inverter used for speed control of numberous electric equipment system can be reduced upto one-tenth of that for conventional induction motor. Also the cost and maintenance fee of multi-excited induction motor can be reduced compared to any other motor.

Multi-axis servo systems are widely used in various fields such as industiral systems for improving production efficiency, robotics and complex systems where many mechanical devices and sensor systems are connected. Such a servo system requires that the servo control technique to realize the synchronization of the drive shaft in the steady state and transient conditions and to control so as to follow the target track in order to improve product precision and production efficiency. In addition, embedded type hardware is required for smooth control of the entire multi-axis system. Therefore, this paper uses hardware based on FPGA which is widely used in digital signal processing field and various control system because hardware design change is easy and parallel processing is possible. In addition, Labview based servo motor control program was studied that can control the servo motor by ensuring the performance and flexibility of the FPGA and follow the target trajectory according to various speed processing and accurate timing synchronization.
