In this paper, a parameter estimation method for a vector control of induction motors is presented. It can be easily implemented to the inverters in the industrial fields such as continuous process line, which requires the high performance of torque control, because of being estimated under the condition of the actual operating states. Also, this method nems no additional hardware such as voltage sensors and measuring equipments by the estimation of output voltage, and has good accuracy and repeatability by observing the variation of the stator voltage due to estimation errors. Experimental results verify the validity and usefulness of the proposed estimation method in the industrial fields.

In this paper, a nonlinear controller based on adaptive back-stepping method is proposed for high performance operation of Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM). First, in order to improve the performance of speed tracking, a nonlinear back-stepping controller is designed. In addition, since it is difficult to achieve the high quality control performance without considering parameter variation, a parameter estimator is included to adapt to the variation of load torque in real time. Finally, for the efficiency of power consumption of the motor, controller is designed to operate motor with the minimum current for the required maximum torque. The proposed controller is tested through experiment with a 1-hp Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM) for the angular velocity reference tracking performance and load torque volatility estimation, and to test the Maximum Torque per Ampere (MTPA) operation. The result verifies the efficacy of the proposed controller.

An adaptive nonlinear control of a brushless direct drive motor(BLDDM) is proposed. Comparing to the traditional PMSM the direct drive motor has smaller number of per pole and per phase slots to provide higher torque in low speed. This generic construction generates flux harmonics and finally results in unwanted torque harmonics. To control the speed a feedback linearization method is applied by choosing the $i_{ds}$ and $\omega_{m}$ as the output variables. The control of the flux harmonics is provided by using a flux observer with MRAC technique. As shown in the simula-tion results the proposed nonlinear speed controller has a good speed response in the steady state and robust to the flux variation

This paper proposes new torque control of an induction motor, which is robust against time verying parameters. The control is based on adaptive vector control with serial block adaptive algorithm. Motor parameters used to estimates slip frequency and torque. Frequency mismatch in the control system detrimentally affects slip frequency estimation and torque response. In order to compensate for degradation of the responses an adaptive identifier for the magnetizing inductance and the secondary time constand is introduced. adaptive vector control system consisted of two subsystems, a vector control system realized on synchronous frame and a parameter identification system on stationary frame. the effectiveness of the proposed method was verified by some digital simulations.

A method to control the speed or the torque of a permanent-magnet direct current motor is presented. The rotor speed and the external torque estimation are simultaneously provided by appropriate observers. The sensorless control scheme is based on current measurement and switching states of power devices. The observers performances are dependent on the accurate machine parameters knowledge. Sliding mode control approach was adopted for drive control, providing the suitable switching states to the chopper power devices. Despite the predictable chattering, a convenient first order switching function was considered enough to define the sliding surface and to correspond with the desired control specifications and drive performance. The experimental implementation was supported on a single dsPIC and the controller includes a logic overcurrent protection.

To avoid the use of position sensor or flux sensor in a field oriented induction machine drive system, the terminal quantities are often used to estimate the rotor flux. Since the estimation involves the leakage inductance of the machine, the performance of such systems is sensitive to the variations of leakage. Since estimation of the stator flux is independent of the leakage, the steady state performance of the stator flux oriented system is insensitive to the leakage inductance. In this paper, the torque response of stator flux oriented system is compared to that of rotor flux oriented system by digital simulation. And induction motor sensor less speed control by stator flux oriented method is developed. The performance of the speed estimation is showed by digital simulation.

This paper proposes an on-line rotor time constant estimation strategy for indirect field oriented induction machines. The performance of the indirect field oriented control is dependent especially on the rotor time constant whose value varies according to the temperature. The proposed method calculates the difference between the nominal rotor time constant and the real value from the d- and q-axis integration terms of a proportional integral (PI) current regulator and the demanded voltages of the induction machine to regulate the current in the steady state. Because the proposed strategy has a simple structure and is available in wide speed and torque ranges, the proposed method can be easily used in the industrial field. The effectiveness of proposed strategy is verified with simulations and a 7.5kW experimental setup.

Estimation errors of the rotor speed and position in sensorless control systems of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) will lead to low efficiency and dynamic-performance degradation. In this paper, a parallel-type extended nonlinear observer incorporating the nominal parameters is constructed in the stator-fixed reference frame, with rotor position, speed, and the load torque simultaneously estimated. The stability of the extended nonlinear observer is analyzed using the indirect Lyapunov's method, and observer gains are selected according to the transfer functions of the speed and position estimators. Taking into account the parameter inaccuracies issue, explicit estimation error equations are derived based on the error dynamics of the closed-loop sensorless control system. An equivalent flux error is defined to represent the back Electromotive Force (EMF) error caused by the inaccurate motor parameters, and a compensation strategy is designed to suppress the estimation errors. The effectiveness of the proposed method has been validated through simulation and experimental results.
