To prove the vibration and speed error problems caused by the nonlinear friction characteristics and load variation of the hydraulic system, a PID speed controller and a load compensation controller for the hydraulic inverter-fed elevator are proposed. The load compensation controller is composed by the PI controller and the speed controller is composed by the PID controller. The P,I and D gains of the control parameters are obtained by the frequency response of system transfer function. The Effectiveness of the proposed controller are shown by experimental results, which the proposed controller yields robustness with load variations and stable and good speed and acceleration responses with less oscillations.

Due to the friction characteristics of pump, cylinder packing and passenger car, in the elevator actuated with hydraulic inverter-fed systems, there exist dead zones, which cannot be controlled by a PID controller. To overcome the drawbacks, in this paper, we propose a new hybrid control scheme, which switches the modes between a sliding mode controller and a PID controller. The proposed hybrid control scheme achieves an improved control performance by using both controllers. We first propose a design method of sliding mode controller for a hydraulic elevator system controlled by inverters, then fellowed by a design method of a hybrid sliding mode control scheme is proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme are shown by simulation results, which the proposed hybrid control method yields better control performance then the PID controlled scheme, not only in the zero-crossing speed region but also in the overall control region including steady-state region.
