Self organizing fuzzy sliding mode controller for the position control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor drive

Abstract

AbstractIn this paper, a self organizing fuzzy sliding mode controller (SOFSMC) which emulates the fuzzy controller with gain auto-tuning is proposed for a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive. The proposed controller is used for the position control of the PMSM drive. The performance and robustness of the control system is tested for nonlinear motor load torque disturbance and parameter variations. It has a novel gain self organizing strategy in response to the transient or tracking responses requirement. To illustrate the performance of the proposed controller, the simulation studies are presented separately for the SOFSMC and the fuzzy controller with gain auto-tuning. The results are compared with each other and discussed in detail. Simulation results showing the effectiveness of the proposed control system are confirmed under the different position changes
