Innovative Observers for Induction Motor Control

In this thesis the problem of designing observers and controllers for induction motors has been studied and thoroughly discussed using tools from the nonlinear system theory, both for analysis and control purposes. Useful techniques have been used to identify the machine parameters off-line. In the Introduction was dealt the design a control system for a drive of asynchronous machines that uses a voltage source inverter to generate the currents and voltages which carry the drive by making use of an observer of the state rotor variables. The used control algorithms is the \textit{field oriented control} (FOC). The model of the asynchronous induction motor is described starting from the mecha…

Descriptor-type Kalman Filter and TLS EXIN Speed Estimate for Sensorless Control of a Linear Induction Motor.

2014

This paper proposes a speed observer for linear induction motors (LIMs), which is composed of two parts: 1) a linear Kalman filter (KF) for the online estimation of the inductor currents and induced part flux linkage components; and 2) a speed estimator based on the total least squares (TLS) EXIN neuron. The TLS estimator receives as inputs the state variables, estimated by the KF, and provides as output the LIM linear speed, which is fed back to the KF and the control system. The KF is based on the classic space-vector model of the rotating induction machine. The end effects of the LIMs have been considered an uncertainty treated by the KF. The TLS EXIN neuron has been used to compute, in …
