Robust Controller Design for Speed Control of an Indirect Field Oriented Induction Machine Drive

Journal Title: Leonardo Electronic Journal of Practices and Technologies - Year 2005, Vol 4, Issue 6

Abstract

The use of PI controllers for speed control of induction machine drives is characterized by an overshoot during tracking mode and a poor load disturbance rejection. This is mainly caused by the fact that the complexity of the system does not allow the gains of the PI controller to exceed a certain low value. At starting mode the high value of the error is amplified across the PI controller provoking high variations in the command torque. If the gains of the controller exceed a certain value, the variations in the command torque become too high and will destabilize the system.To overcome this problem we propose the use of a limiter ahead of the PI controller. This limiter causes the speed error to be maintained within the saturation limits provoking, when appropriately chosen, smooth variations in the command torque even when the PI controller gains are very high.In this paper, a new approach to control the speed of an indirect field oriented induction machine drive using a classical PI controller is proposed. Its simulated input – output non linear relationship is then learned off – line using a feed – forward linear network with one hidden layer.The simulation of the system using either the modified PI controller or the learned neural network controller shows promising results. The motor reaches the reference speed rapidly and without overshoot, step commands are tracked with almost zero steady state error and no overshoot, load disturbances are rapidly rejected and variations of some of the motor parameters are fairly well dealt with.
