The three-phase four-leg voltage-source inverter topology is an interesting option for the three-phase four-wire system. With an additional leg, this topology can achieve superior performance under unbalanced and nonlinear load conditions. However, because of the low bandwidth of conventional controllers in high-power inverter applications, the system cannot guarantee a balanced output voltage under the unbalanced load condition. Most of the methods proposed to solve this problem mainly use the multiple synchronous frame method, which requires several controllers and a large amount of computation because of frame transformation. This study proposes a simple hybrid controller that combines proportional-integral (PI) and resonant controllers in the synchronous frame synchronized with the positive-sequence component of the output voltage of the three-phase four-leg inverter. The design procedure for the controller and the theoretical analysis are presented. The performance of the proposed method is verified by the experimental results and compared with that of the conventional PI controller.

The purpose of this paper is to study a high-performance control scheme for neutral-point-clamping three-level (NPC-3L) inverter fed dual three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives by considering some asymmetric factors such as the non-identical parameters in phase windings. To implement this, the system model is analyzed for dual three-phase PMSM drives with asymmetric factors based on the vector space decomposition (VSD) principle. Based on the equivalent circuits, PI controllers with feedforward compensation are used in the d-q subspace for regulating torque, where the cut-off frequency of the PI controllers are set at the twice the fundamental frequency for compensating both the additional DC component and the second order component caused by asymmetry. Meanwhile, proportional resonant (PR) controllers are proposed in the x-y subspace for suppressing the possible unbalanced currents in the phase windings. A dual three-phase space vector modulation (DT-SVM) is designed for the drive, and the balancing factor is designed based on the numerical fitting surface for balancing the DC link capacitor voltages. Experimental results are given to demonstrate the validity of the theoretical analysis and the proposed control scheme.

본 논문은 가격이 저렴하고 친환경적이면서도 고성능, 고내구성, 구조적 단순함의 장점을 갖고 있어 최근에 폭넓은 관심을 받고 있는 스위치드 릴럭턴스 모터(SRM: Switched Reluctance Motor)의 보다 정확하고 안정적인 전류제어 방법에 대해 설명한다. 대부분의 전동기의 전류제어 방법에는 알고리즘과 제어 이득의 선정이 다른 제어기에 비해 상대적으로 간편한 PI 제어기를 이용한 방법이 주로 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 일반적인 PI 제어기는 SRM과 같이 고정자 권선의 전류 및 회전자의 위치마다 비선형적으로 파라미터가 급변하는 시스템의 경우 변하는 동작 지점마다 제어 이득을 조정해 주어야 하는 어려움이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 비선형적으로 특성이 변하는 SRM 드라이브 시스템에 제어 성능이 우수한 자기동조 퍼지 제어기를 이용한 제어기법을 적용하여 비선형적인 파라미터의 변화에도 보다 안정적인 전류제어가 가능한 것을 보였다. 또한 Matlab/Simulink 시뮬레이션을 이용하여, SRM 드라이브의 전류제어에 PI 전류 제어기(PICC: PI Current Controller)와 자기동조 퍼지 전류 제어기(STFCC: Self-tuning Fuzzy Current Controller)를 각각 적용한 후 그 결과를 비교하였으며 제안한 자기동조 퍼지 제어기의 제어성능이 우수함을 확인하였다.

This paper considers the problem of determining a set of PI, PD and PID controller gains, for a given linear time invariant plant, that meets or exceeds the closed loop step response specifications. The proposed method utilizes two recent results: for a given system, (1) finding a set of stabilizing PI, PD and PID gains and (2) the relationship between time response (overshoot and speed) and the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial. The method allows us to extract a subset of PI, PD and PID gains that meets stability as well as time domain performance requirements. The intersections of two dimensional sets described by linear and quadratic inequalities in the controller design space are need to be Identified through numerical computation. The procedure is illustrated by examples.

To improve the limitation of fuzzy PI controller when is applied to systems of order higher than one, a fuzzy PI controller that fuzzily resets or amplifies the accumulated control input according to fuzzy rules defined on (error, change of error) space is proposed. The proposed controller structure was motivated by the characteristics of fuzzy PI controller that it generally gives unevitable large overshoot in trial of reducing rise time of response especially when a system of order higher than one is considered. Based on the observation that the undesirable characteristics of the fuzzy PI controller is caused by integrating control input excessively, even though the integrator is introduced to overcome steady state error, we propose a controller that clear out or doubles integrated control input in a fuzzy manner according to the situation to reduce rise time as well as overshoot. To show the usefulness of the proposed controller, it is applied to the systems that are difficult to stabilize or difficult to get satisfactory response by conventional fuzzy PI controllers.

This paper deals with a development of a quad-rotor for a hovering attitude control. First, a rotational dynamics are derived to design an attitude controller. The attitude controller is based on PI (Proportional-Integral) controller. For a stable attitude control, an anti-windup method applies to the PI attitude controller. Additionally, a complementary filter is used to obtain more reliable attitude. Gain values of the attitude controllers based on the anti-windup method are obtained through tests. Finally, the quad-rotor with the anti-windup based PI attitude controller is developed and a hovering attitude control flight tests are performed. As a result, the developed quad-rotor is capable of stable hovering.

This paper deals with the design of a robust PI controller for a vehicle suspension system. A method, which is related to computation of all stabilizing PI controllers, is applied to the vehicle suspension system in order to obtain optimum control between passenger comfort and driving performance. The PI controller parameters are calculated by plotting the stability boundary locus in the $(k_p,\;k_i)$-plane and illustrative results are presented. In reality, like all physical systems, the vehicle suspension system parameters contain uncertainty. Thus, the proposed method is also used to compute all the parameters of a PI controller that stabilize a vehicle suspension system with uncertain parameters.

In this study, a brain emotional learning-based intelligent controller (BELBIC) is developed for the speed control of an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). A novel and simple model of the IPMSM drive structure is established with the intelligent control system, which controls motor speed accurately without the use of any conventional PI controllers and is independent of motor parameters. This study is conducted in both real time and simulation with a new control plant for a laboratory 3 ph, 3.8 Nm IPMSM digital signal processor (DSP)-based drive system. This DSP-based drive system is then compared with conventional BELBIC and an optimized conventional PI controller. Results show that the proposed method performs better than the other controllers and exhibits excellent control characteristics, such as fast response, simple implementation, and robustness with respect to disturbances and manufacturing imperfections.

This paper presents a simple two-degree of freedom PID tuning table based on the CDM design method. The structure of the control system will be composed of plant, P or PI or PID controller and a pre-filter. The finalized formula can be used based on the experimental test of the plant in the same manner as the Ziegler-Nichols' second method. That is; users just need to find the critical gain and critical period experimentally and the parameters of the P, PI or PID controller with the pre-filter can be obtained by substituting the values of critical gain and critical period in the tuning table. The simulation results of the control systems utilizing the proposed controllers compared with those using the Ziegler-Nichols' second method will also be demonstrated.
