Abstract
Stability and reliability are the most important indicators of drive systems. In this article, a robust nonlinear control method is advanced for dual three-phase permanent-magnet synchronous machine (dual-PMSM) drives, based on the synergetic control theory. This control is implemented by a new synergetic controller (SGC) integrating with an extended sliding mode observer (ESMO), and an optimization method is applied to obtain the optimal parameters of the SGC. This control scheme not only improves the dynamic performance even with operating parameters change, but also can diagnose the speed sensor fault and realize the fault tolerant control (FTC). The proposed control method is compared with the PI control, the sliding mode control (SMC) and the predictive control, as well as the simulation and experimental results confirm the superior dynamic performance and the effectiveness on the speed sensor fault diagnosis (FD) and FTC.
