Summary:Accurate modeling of electrical drives for online testing is a
relevant problem, because of their nonlinear behavior. Efficient
modeling for simulation, performance evaluation, and testing must
consider accurate as well as simple models. This paper proposes the
application of auto-tune methods to identify equivalent Hammerstein
models, where the nonlinear process is approximated by a static
nonlinear element followed by a linear dynamic second or third-order
model. The effectiveness of the presented procedure is first verified by
simulation results, showing that Hammerstein models overcome the
limitations inherent to small-signal linearizations. A standard
implementation of such technique considers a relay adjustment for
attempts in a heuristic way. In this paper, two innovations are
proposed: the relay adjustment is automatically shifted and the method
is applied for complex electric drives. Experimental results are shown
in the case of a drive constituted by a DC/AC inverter supplying a
single-phase induction motor and of a step-down chopper
