Switched PI Control Based MRAS for Sensorless Control of PMSM Drives Using Fuzzy-Logic-Controller

Abstract

With the use of sensorless control mechanical position sensors can be removed from the gearbox, so as to decrease the maintenance costs and enhance the system robustness. In this paper, switched PI control based model reference adaptive system (MRAS) observer using Fuzzy-Logic-Controller (FLC) is introduced for sensorless control of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. The main work and innovation of this paper include: 1) An FLC is designed for speed and current control. The response performance of speed regulation and the accuracy of the command voltage are improved and the difficulty of manual adjustment of control parameters is avoided. In addition, the disturbance observer is established to compensate the nonlinear effect caused by voltage source inverter (VSI). Therefore, the robustness of PMSM vector control system is improved and the sensorless control precision is guaranteed. 2) A sensorless control strategy of a switched PI control based MRAS observer is proposed for stator resistance tracking, which can improve the accuracy of resistance estimation and improve the dynamic performance of sensorless control. 3) The experimental results are given to verify the availability of the proposed scheme.
