Abstract

This is a case study of application of Global Optimisation (GO), in which a discrete optimal self-tuning controller is designed to regulate the speed of rotor and the amplitude of the rotor flux in an induction motor drive system. Firstly the non-linear dynamics of the induction motor is approximated by a linear model, around its operation point, through a recursive least-squares algorithm. Then the errors between the outputs of the identified linear model and actual rotor are used to train a back-propagation neural network for determining the future control output. With this type of structure, the two control goals of regulating rotor speed and rotor flux amplitude are de-coupled in a nature so that power efficiency can be optimised without affecting speed regulation. A simulated case study is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
