The traction motors in electric multiple unit (EMU) trains are powered by AC-DC-AC converters, and the DC link voltage is generated by single phase PWM converters, with a fluctuation component under twice the frequency of the input catenary AC grid, which causes fluctuations in the motor torque and current. Traditionally, heavy and low-efficiency hardware LC resonant filters parallel in the DC side are adopted to reduce the ripple effect. In this paper, an analytical model of the ripple phenomenon is derived and analyzed in the frequency domain, and a ripple control scheme compensating the slip frequency of rotor vector control systems without a hardware filter is applied to reduce the torque and current ripple amplitude. Then a relatively simple discretization method is chosen to discretize the algorithm with a high discrete accuracy. Simulation and experimental results validate the proposed ripple control strategy.

This paper is proposed maximum torque per ampere of induction motor using fuzzy-neural networks controller. Operation of maximum torque per ampere is achieved when, at a given torque and speed, the slip frequency is adjusted to that so that the stator current amplitude is minimized. This paper introduces a induction motor drive system with fuzzy-neural networks controller. A neural network-based architecture is described for fuzzy logic control. The characteristic rule and their membership function of fuzzy system are represented as the processing nodes in the neural network structure. This paper is proposed the analysis as well as the simulation results to verify the effectiveness of the new method.

This paper describes the scheme of sliding mode control (SMC) to adopt the conventional slip frequency vector drives. The purpose of sliding mode control is to achieve an accurate, robustness of response for ac servomotor speed control. A sliding mode control design method is proposed for a speed control of an induction servomotor. The control law is composed of the variable structure component and the suppressed coefficients to suppress load disturbance and variation of external parameters. The proposed control scheme is simulated by the computer which is installed in an ideal ac servomotor. The simulation results show that the proposed design method has robustness and accuracy in the speed response by adjusting the suppressed coefficients for load disturbance and the motor mechanical parameter variation.

This paper proposes the design and implementation of a direct torque controlled induction motor drive system. The method is based on control of decoupling between amplitude and angle of reference stator flux for determining reference stator voltage vector in generating PWM output voltage for induction motors. The objective is to reduce electromagnetic torque ripple and stator flux droop which result in a decrease in current distortion in steady state condition. In addition, the proposed technique provides simplicity of a control system. The direct torque control is based on the relationship between instantaneous slip angular frequency and rotor angular frequency in adjustment of the reference stator flux angle. The amplitude of the reference stator flux is always kept constant at rated value. Experimental results are illustrated in this paper confirming the capability of the proposed system in regards to such issues as torque and stator flux response, stator phase current distortion both in dynamic and steady state with load variation, and low speed operation.

This paper is concerned with the simulation and determination of the input voltage and frequency for the optimal efficiency operation of induction motors. In general, induction motors have a specific character that operation efficiency is dropped sharply at the light roads condition. Consequently, if the induction motor is controlled by high efficiency using the VVVF(variable voltage variable frequency) control methods at optimal values, the entire system can obtain the substantial energy savings from the efficiency improvement in induction motors. In this paper, optimal slip is derived from the modeling of an induction motor and the optimal hybrid-control method is suggested by the simulation of the proposed algorithm for a 3-phase induction motor.

The time optimal position control design can be repeatedly taken from the initial state of a dynamic system to a desired one as fast as possible in the industrial drives. In this case, an induction machine parameters will vary due to temperature, frequency, and saturation effects. In particular, the rotor resistance changes critically with temperature and frequency. These changes affect the command values of the stator current components and slip speed. There is a mismatch between the commanded variables and actual ones of the induction motor drive, and this situation leads to coupling of the vector controller from the plant, i.e. the induction motor . Consequences of such a coupling include the initiation of oscillations of the rotor flux and unsuitable switching of electromagnetic torque for the induction motor servo drive. Therefore, this paper describes a rotor resistance parameter compensating method for the induction motor, And the validity of the proposed design method is confirmed by simulation studies and experiment results.

In recent years, a.c servomotors have been gradually replacing d.c servomotors in various high-performance applications such as machine tools and industrial robots. Inparticular, the high performance slip-frequency control of an induction motor, which is often called the vector control, is considered ane of th ebest a.c drives. In this paper, the transient state equations and vector control algorithms of an induction type servomotor are described mathematically by using the two- axis theory (d-q coordinates). According to the result of these algorithms, we scheme the speed control system for the motor in which the vector control is adopted to give high performance. Motor drive through a PWM inverter with power MOSFET is controlled so that the actual input current to the motor may track the current reference obtained from a micro-computer (8086 CPU). Driving experiments are performed in the range of 0 to 3000 rpm, and it is verified that high speed response is obtained for this system.

We proposed the speed control of the SLIM(Single-sided Linear Induction Motor) for conveyance system by the decoupled thrust control. The voltage equations of SLIM are expressed on the suitable $\alpha-\beta$ axis by the proposed equivalent circuit, which can analyze the characteristics of the thrust and the normal force and so on. These control methods, which are the slip angular frequency control and the decoupling control for the thrust and normal force by analyzing these parameters can be successfully driven without interfering of each axis. These results exemplified the linear drive of SLIM with the reference value.

This paper presents an application of vector control strategy for 1.2MVA IGBT traction drive for electric railway vehicle. The vector control requires the control of the phase and amplitude of output voltage vector[5]. But in case of traction system far railway vehicle, the one-pulse mode is used in order to utilize the link voltage fully[8]. So it is impossible to control the flux axis current and the torque axis current instantaneously and independently. So this paper proposes the vector control strategy with slip-frequency control at one-pulse mode. And precise switching technique between the two different control structures has been proposed. And the strategy was verified by experimental result with 1.2MVA IGBT inverter with four 210㎾ induction motors.
