This book describes the development of an adaptive state observer using a mathematical model to achieve high performance for sensorless induction motor drives. This involves first deriving an expression for a modified gain rotor flux observer with a parameter adaptive scheme to estimate the motor speed accurately and improve the stability and performance of sensorless vector-controlled induction motor drives. This scheme is then applied to the controls of a photovoltaic-motor water-pumping system, which results in improved dynamic performance under different operating conditions. The book also presents a robust speed controller design for a sensorless vector-controlled induction motor drive system based on H∞ theory, which overcomes the problems of the classical controller.

This monograph shows the reader how to avoid the burdens of sensor cost, reduced internal physical space, and system complexity in the control of AC motors. Many applications fields—electric vehicles, wind- and wave-energy converters and robotics, among them—will benefit. Sensorless AC Electric Motor Control describes the elimination of physical sensors and their replacement with observers, i.e., software sensors. Robustness is introduced to overcome problems associated with the unavoidable imperfection of knowledge of machine parameters—resistance, inertia, and so on—encountered in real systems. The details of a large number of speed- and/or position-sensorless ideas for different types of permanent-magnet synchronous motors and induction motors are presented along with several novel observer designs for electrical machines. Control strategies are developed using high-order, sliding-mode and quasi-continuous-sliding-mode techniques and two types of observer–controller schemes based on backstepping and sliding-mode techniques are described. Experimental results validate the performance of these observer and controller configurations with test trajectories of significance in difficult sensorless-AC-machine problems. Control engineers working with AC motors in a variety of industrial environments will find the space-and-cost-saving ideas detailed in Sensorless AC Electric Motor Control of much interest. Academic researchers and graduate students from electrical, mechanical and control-engineering backgrounds will be able to see how advanced theoretical control can be applied in meaningful real systems.

This paper describes a simple way to control the Brushless DC (BLDC) motor for electrical applications. To control this machine, it is generally required to measure the speed and position of the rotor by using the sensor, because the inverter phases acting at any time must be commutated depending on the rotor position. Encoders and resolvers have been used for sensing the rotor position with respect to the stator. These sensors, however, make the motor system more complicated and mechanically unreliable. A method for the estimation of the speed and rotor position of a BLDC motor is presented in this paper. Fuzzy-based back-EMF observer is employed to estimate the speed by using measurements of the stator line voltage and line current. Most existing sensorless methods of the BLDC motor have low performance in a transient state or low-speed range and occasionally require an additional circuit. To overcome this problem, the estimation of back-EMF is carried out by fuzzy logic techniques to improve the performance of the system. This method proposes a back-EMF observer based on fuzzy function approximation and the system state equation of the BLDC motor and describes a fuzzy logic approach to design a Hybrid Controller (HC) for variable speeds of a BLDC motor. Here, Proportional Integral (PI) controller is tuned by the fuzzy logic technique. The fuzzy logic tuner is used to adjust the two gains of the PI controller. In this approach, the fuzzy tuning of the gains of a conventional PI controller is achieved through fuzzy rules deduced from many simulation tests applied to BLDC motor, for a variety of operating conditions. Experimental results show that the proposed fuzzy-tuning PI controller is better than the controller with fixed gains in terms of robustness and speed rise time even under great variations of operating conditions and load disturbance.

Despite two decades of massive strides in research and development on control strategies and their subsequent implementation, most books on permanent magnet motor drives still focus primarily on motor design, providing only elementary coverage of control and converters. Addressing that gap with information that has largely been disseminated only in journals and at conferences, Permanent Magnet Synchronous and Brushless DC Motor Drives is a long-awaited comprehensive overview of power electronic converters for permanent magnet synchronous machines and control strategies for variable-speed operation. It introduces machines, power devices, inverters, and control, and addresses modeling, implementation, control strategies, and flux weakening operations, as well as parameter sensitivity, and rotor position sensorless control. Suitable for both industrial and academic audiences, this book also covers the simulation, low cost inverter topologies, and commutation torque ripple of PM brushless DC motor drives. Simulation of the motor drives system is illustrated with MATLAB® codes in the text. This book is divided into three parts—fundamentals of PM synchronous and brushless dc machines, power devices, inverters; PM synchronous motor drives, and brushless dc motor drives. With regard to the power electronics associated with these drive systems, the author: Explores use of the standard three-phase bridge inverter for driving the machine, power factor correction, and inverter control Introduces space vector modulation step by step and contrasts with PWM Details dead time effects in the inverter, and its compensation Discusses new power converter topologies being considered for low-cost drive systems in PM brushless DC motor drives This reference is dedicated exclusively to PM ac machines, with a timely emphasis on control and standard, and low-cost converter topologies. Widely used for teaching at the doctoral level and for industrial audiences both in the U.S. and abroad, it will be a welcome addition to any engineer’s library.
