An intelligent speed controller for indirect vector controlled induction motor drive

This paper presents the speed control scheme of indirect vector controlled induction motor (IM) drive. PWM controlling scheme is based on Voltage source inverter type space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) and the Conventional-PI controller or Fuzzy-PI controller is employed in closed loop speed control. Decoupling of the stator current into torque and flux producing (d-q) current components model of an induction motor is involved in the indirect vector control. The torque component Iq current of an IM is developed by an intelligent based Fuzzy PI controller. Based on settling time and dynamic response the performance of Fuzzy Logic Controller is compared with that of the PI Controller to sudden load changes. It's provides better control of motor torque with high dynamic performance. The simulated design is tested using various tool boxes in MATLAB. Simulation results of both the controllers are presented for comparison.
