A discrete adaptive field-oriented induction motor drive

A discrete model reference adaptive controller (MRAC) is designed and implemented. This MRAC makes the performance of the field-oriented induction motor drives insensitive to parameter changes. Only the information of the reference model and the plant output are required. Hence, the proposed controller is easy to implement practically. For designing the proposed adaptive controller, the dynamic model of the drive system is estimated from the sampled input-output data using the stochastic modeling technique. The theoretical basis of the adaptive control is derived and simulation is made. The hardware of the drive system and the microprocessor-based adaptive controller are discussed. Some experimental results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.<
