Asymptotic Decoupled Control of Induction Motors for High Dynamic Performance |
Abstract |
In this paper, we attempt to achieve high dynamic performance by means of decoupled control of rotor speed and flux. Recently developed nonlinear feedback control theories are utilized. The rotor fluxes are estimated based on the rotor circuit equations. When the estimation error of the rotor flux tends to zero, the rotor speed and flux dynamic characteristics of the induction motor with our controller become linear. To minimize the deterioration of control performance, we use an identification algorithm for the rotor resistance. We analyze the dynamic behavior of the closed loop system with our controller. Both simulation and experimental results are included to demonstrate the practical significance of our result. In particular, our experimental results show that recently developed nonlinear feedback control techniques are of practical use in control of induction motors. |
