Abstract
In this paper, the speed regulation control problem for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) under the single-loop control structure is investigated. Specifically, certain issues, such as the risks of over-current and multi-source disturbances, can increase the likelihood of damage to the system circuitry and lead to unsatisfactory speed regulation performance. To tackle these issues, a current-constrained continuous nonsingular terminal sliding mode control (CNTSMC) approach via the control barrier function (CBF) technology is proposed. First, a nonlinear finite-time extended state observer is constructed to estimate the unmatched disturbances in PMSM systems. Subsequently, a new composite CBF-based CNTSMC method incorporating the disturbance estimation is designed, such that the undesirable influence of multi-source disturbances on the control performance can be effectively attenuated, while guaranteeing strict current constraints. Finally, the stability analysis of the closed-loop control system is presented. Comparative experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves better speed regulation and critical current constraint performance even in the presence of unmatched disturbances.
