This work proposes an alternative strategy to the use of a speed sensor in the implementation of active and reactive power based model reference adaptive system (PQ-MRAS) estimator in order to calculate the rotor and stator resistances of an induction motor (IM) and the use of these parameters for the detection of inter-turn short circuits (ITSC) faults in the stator of this motor. The rotor and stator resistance estimation part of the IM is performed by the PQ-MRAS method in which the rotor angular velocity is reconstructed from the interconnected high gain observer (IHGO). The ITSC fault detection part is done by the derivation of stator resistance estimated by the PQ-MRAS estimator. In addition to the speed sensorless detection of ITSC faults of the IM, an approach to determine the number of shorted turns based on the difference between the phase current of the healthy and faulty machine is proposed. Simulation results obtained from the MATLAB/Simulink platform have shown that the PQ-MRAS estimator using an interconnected highgain observer gives very similar results to those using the speed sensor. The estimation errors in the cases of speed variation and load torque are almost identical. Variations in stator and rotor resistances influence the performance of the observer and lead to poor estimation of the rotor resistance. The results of ITSC fault detection using IHGO are very similar to the results in the literature using the same diagnostic approach with a speed sensor.
<p style='text-indent:20px;'>This paper focuses on the dynamical analysis of the permanent magnet asynchronous motor with the aim of subsequently designing effective robust control laws for the indirect field-oriented control (IFOC) devices. We first perform some tasks which demonstrate the existence of chaos phenomenon in the IFOC using relevant indicators such as phase portraits, bifurcations diagrams and Lyapunov exponents. Chaotic signature and some striking transitions are revealed such as period-doubling, torus, period-adding and chaos when an accessible parameter of the IFOC motor is changed. More interestingly, a certain range of the parameter space corresponds to the transient chaos. This behavior was not reported previously and can be considered as an enriching contribution. Secondly, due to the great interest to reduce the upper bound of uncertainties and interference, conventional sliding mode control (SMC) has been abundantly investigated for fault-tolerant control (FTC) systems. However, this approach presents several drawbacks in terms of overshoot, less robustness, transient state error, large chattering and speed of convergence that limit its use for industrial applications. For these reasons, the integral sliding mode control (ISMC) and the fuzzy sliding mode control (FISMC) are proposed to keep the IFOC motor in the regular operation zone. The optimal feedback gains and a sufficient condition are proposed for the stability of the overall IFOC system is drawn based on the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) method. To highlight the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed control scheme, numerical simulation results are presented. This analysis allows us a great knowledge of engineers for interpreting the operation of the IFOC motor. To highlight the effectiveness and the applicability of the proposed control scheme, numerical simulations results are presented and clearly demonstrated the feasibility of these techniques.</p>
The objective of this paper is to design a parasitic antenna array capable of rejecting interfering signals and directing its main lobe towards the wanted signal. The designed antenna is a linear array consisting of an active monopole and fourteen parasitic monopoles. The method used is LMS, making it possible to calculate the values of the reactive loads to be connected to the ports of the parasitic elements so that the radiation patterns satisfies the fixed constraints. The simulation results in CST-MWS (Computer Simulation Tool Microwave Studio software) of the radiation patterns show an energy level of less than -0.71 dB in the direction of the interference and a gain greater than 5 dB in the direction of the wanted signal. Thus, this technique will make it possible to design directional antennas, with low energy consumption and interference rejection.
