This paper is proposed an efficiency optimization control algorithm for a synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM) which minimizes the copper and iron losses. fen exists a variety of combinations of d and q-axis current which provide a specific motor torque. The objective of the efficiency optimization controller is to seek a combination of d and q-axis current components, which provides minimum losses at a certain operating point in steady state. It is shown that the current components which directly govern the torque production have been very well regulated by the efficiency optimization control scheme. The proposed algorithm allows the electromagnetic losses in variable speed and torque drives to be reduced while keeping good torque control dynamics. Simulation results are presented to show the validity of the proposed algorithm.

This paper presents a new variable structure model following control algorithm for control of manipulators. The reference model is a simple double integrators and the acceleration input for the robot manipulator consists of a proportional and derivative controller for the purpose of trajectory tracking. The control algorithm is derived by using Lyapunov stability theory instead of S.S < O, as is usual in the current VSS controller design. This proposed control algorithm does not require good knowledge of the parameter in the inertia matrix and is easily extendable to robot manipulators with a higher number of links. Also, the new algorithm is computationally fast because of not requiring the matrix inversion. The computer simulation was carried out to evaluate the performance of the proposed VSMFC.

VSS controller is suited for systems where the robust performances in the presence of parameter variations and disturbances are most important. The practical realization of such robust VSS algorithm using DSP ($TMS_{32020}$) is dicussed in this paper. PWH-like control signal which is produced by directly using VSS control algorithm substitutes the PWM amplifier. And the armature current is used in construction of switching function for the purpose of increasing switching frequency. In order to compensate steady state error produced by various external disturbances practical integral compensator is considered.

This paper represents impedance calculation of the distance relay using PSCAD/EMTDC software for transmission line involving the UPFC (Unified Power Flow Controller) device, which is the most vigorous component of FACTS. The presence of the UPFC significantly affects the line parameters of transmission system, which are also influenced by the distance relay setting. Moreover depending on the UPFC location and its parameters, zones of setting the distance relay will be changed. The presence of the UPFC in the fault loop affects both voltage and current seen by relay. Therefore, the distance relay should be taken into account the variable injected voltage of the UPFC.

Switched reluctance motor(SRM) has the advantages of simple structure, low rotor inertia and high efficiency. However, position sensor is essential in SRM in order to synchronize the phase excitation to the rotor position. The position sensors increase the cost of drive system and tend to reduce system reliability. This paper investigates the speed control of sensorless SRM in which the phase current and change rate are utilized in position decision, and the period of dwell angle is variable by compensating the rotor angle. The proposed system consists of position decision, phase locked loop controller, switching angle controller and inverter. The performances in the proposed system are verified through experiments.

An induction motor position control system based on the sliding mode control is presented. In the sliding mode control, control function is discontinuous on the hyperplane, which causes harmful effects such a s current harmonics and acoustic noise in the motor drive application. In this study, a low pass filter is introduced between the sliding mode controller output and the motor controller input to reduce these effects. The filter, however, makes the torque response slggish and the system performance may become poor in cost of chattering reduction. To overcome these problems, the bandwidth of the filer is varied according to the error function. It is shown that the proposed sliding mode control with variable-bandwidth filter shows good performance, which is confirmed through experiments.

Critical conduction mode boost power factor correction converters operating at the boundary of continuous conduction mode and discontinuous conduction mode have been widely used for power applications lower than 300W. This paper proposes an enhanced variable on-time control method for the critical conduction mode boost PFC converter to improve the total harmonic distortion characteristic. The inductor current, which varies according to the input voltage, is analyzed in detail and the optimal on-time is obtained to minimize the total harmonic distortion with a digital controller using a TMS320F28335. The switch on-time varies according to the input voltage based on the computed optimal on-time. The performance of the proposed control method is verified by a 100W PFC converter. It is shown that the optimized on-time reduces the total harmonic distortion about 52% (from 10.48% to 5.5%) at 220V when compared to the variable on-time control method.

A novel rotor speed estimation method using model reference adaptive control(MRAC) is proposed to improve the performance of a sensorless vector controller. In the proposed method, the stator current is used as the model variable for estimating the speed. In conventional MRAC methods, the relation between the two model errors and the speed estimation error is unclear. In the proposed method, the stator current error is represented as a function of the first degree for the error value in the speed estimation. Therefore, the proposed method can produce a fast speed estimation. The robustness of the rotor flux-based MRAC, back EMF-based MRAC, and proposed MRAC is compared based on a sensitivity function about each error of stator resistance, rotor time constant, mutual inductance. Consequently, the proposed method is much more robust than the conventional methods as regards errors in the mutual inductance, stator resistance. Therefore, the proposed method offers a considerable improvement in the performance of a sensorless vector controller at a low speed. In addition, the superiority of the proposed method and the validity of sensitivity functions were verified by simulation and experiment.
