A Constant Switching Frequency Direct Torque Control (CSF-DTC) with low switching losses Space Vector modulation (SVM) for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drive is proposed in this work. The CSF-DTC combines Field Oriented Control (FOC) and basic DTC advantages. Indeed, the proposed control strategy improves the basic DTC performances, which features low flux and torque ripples as well as a fixed switching frequency. The improved DTC ensures also a fast and robust flux and torque responses by using Integral and Proportional (IP) controllers which guaranteed a good disturbance rejection.On the other hand, a symmetrical SVM technique with low switching losses in the PWM inverter is used in order to generate the desired stator voltage vector needed to control the stator flux and the motor torque. Simulation and experimental results are presentedin this paper.These results demonstrate well the performance of the basic and proposed DTC and they show the effectiveness of the constant switching frequency direct torque control.

This paper has proposed an efficient direct torque control strategy based on space vector modulation (SVM-DTC) for dual three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (DTP-PMSM), which is implemented in a synchronous reference frame aligned with the machine stator flux vector. This strategy adopts the space vector modulation technique to compensate for the stator flux error, and then the continuous smooth response of the vector control and the rapid response of direct torque control are both achieved. Simulation studies of a 3KW DTP-PMSM are carried out. Simulation results show the improvement of the torque response, decrease of the torque ripple, the higher steady performance and better flux waveform.

Over the past few years, multiple types of modifications have been proposed onto the Direct Torque Control (DTC) scheme. Among others is the implementation of Space Vector Modulation (SVM). In this paper, two new control strategies are proposed onto an SVM-DTC. Instead of using PI torque and flux controllers, a fuzzy logic control method is implemented in the proposed modification to achieve a more constant switching frequency while minimizing the torque error. The fuzzy logic controller controls the voltages in direct and quadratic reference frame (Vd, Vq). This approach fully utilizes the switching capability of the inverter and thus improving the overall system performance. To overcome issues in open loop stator flux such as DC drift and saturation, a closed loop estimation method of stator flux is also proposed based on voltage model and low pass filter. The performance of the proposed control strategy is benchmarked with that of a conventional DTC–SVM. Simulations and experiments were carried out and the results show that the proposed method outperforms the conventional DTC-SVM in terms of DC-offset elimination and overall system robustness. <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;"><span style="font-size: 9.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: black;" lang="EN-US">Over the past few years, multiple types of modifications have been proposed onto the Direct Torque Control (DTC) scheme.

A back-stepping adaptive control strategy is proposed to direct torque control (DTC) of surface permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) in order to solve some problems existed in conventional DTC. The output of the designed controller makes space vector modulation (SVM) possible, which further ensures the inverted switching frequency to be fixed. The stability of the controller is verified via Lyapunov stable theory. Simulation results show that the presented control strategy can solve these problems effectively and show strong robust to external disturbance and noise.

In order to improve the performance of the servo control system driven by a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) under novel direct torque control (NDTC), which, utilizing composite active vectors, fixed sector division criterion, is proposed in this paper. The precondition of the accurate compensations of torque and flux errors is that the sector where the stator flux linkage is located can be determined accurately. Consequently, the adaptive sector division criterion is adopted in NDTC. However, the computation burden is inevitably increased with the using of the adaptive part. On the other hand, the main errors can be compensated through SV-DTC (DTC-utilizing single active vector), while another active vector applied in NDTC can only supply the auxiliary error compensation. The relationships of the two active vectors’ characteristics in NDTC are analyzed in this paper based on the active factor. Furthermore, the fixed sector division criterion is proposed for NDTC (FS-NDTC), which can classify the complexity of the control system. Additionally, the switching table for the selections of the two active vectors is designed. The effectiveness of the proposed FS-NDTC is verified through the experimental results on a 100-W PMSM drive system.

This study investigates the direct torque control strategy of permanent magnet synchronous motor with the space vector modulation, on account of large torque fluctuation and varied switching frequency of classic direct torque control strategy. The relationship among the terminal control voltages and the torque and stator flux of the permanent magnet synchronous motor is derived through the dynamic model of motor. Accordingly, the torque and the flux closed-loop feedback control structure are established, where the error signals are regulated by the proportional and integral controllers to generate output voltages. Furthermore, the parameters of the controllers are designed through explicitly analyzing the frequency domain models of the torque control loop and the flux control loop. The accurate calculation formula of control parameters, which has both explicit setting target and definite physical meaning, is obtained. Therefore, the design of torque and flux controller parameters becomes easy in the direct torque control with space vector modulation technology, and satisfactory flux and torque control can be acquired. Finally, simulation and experimental tests are demonstrated in support of the validity of the investigated scheme and the feasibility of the proposed controller parameter design.

Purpose Direct Torque Control (DTC) of induction motor drives is a well-established technique owing to features such as fast dynamic and insensibility to motor parameters. However, conventional DTC scheme, based on comparators and the switching table, suffers from large torque and flux ripples. To improve DTC performance, this study aims to propose and implement a sensorless finite-state predictive torque control using extended Kalman Filter in dSPACE environment. Design/methodology/approach This paper deals with the design of an extended Kalman filter for estimating the state of an induction motor model and for sensorless control of systems using this type of motor as an actuator. A complex-valued model is adopted that simultaneously allows a simpler observability analysis of the system and a more effective state estimation. Findings Simulation and experimental results reveal that the drive system, associated with this technique, can effectively reduce flux and torque ripples with better dynamic and steady state performance. Further, the proposed approach maintains a constant switching frequency. Originality/value The proposed speed observer have been developed and implemented experimentally under different operating conditions such as parameter variation, no-load/load disturbances and speed variations in different speed operation regions.

The traditional direct torque control system of permanent magnet synchronous motor has many problems, such as large torque ripple and variable switching frequency. In order to improve the dynamic and static performance of the control system, a new torque control idea and speed sensorless control scheme are proposed in this paper. First, by deriving the equation of torque change rate, an improved torque controller is designed to replace the torque hysteresis controller of the traditional direct torque control. The improved direct torque control strategy can significantly reduce the torque ripple and keep the switching frequency constant. Then, based on the improved direct torque control and considering the sensitivity of the stator resistance to temperature change, a speed estimator based on the model reference adaptive method is designed. This method realizes the stator resistance on-line identification and further improves the control precision of the system. The performance of the traditional direct torque control and the improved direct torque control are compared by simulation and experiment under different operating conditions. The simulation and experimental results are presented to support the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper proposes a novel deadbeat torque and flux control (DB-DTFC) to reduce torque ripple for switched reluctance motor (SRM). DB-DTFC combines the advantages of direct torque control (DTC) and space-vector modulation (SVM). DB-DTFC leads current vector control into DTC in order to find the equation between torque and current through deadbeat prediction theory i.e. a beat reaches a given point. In addition, the deadbeat calculation module here is similar to that of permanent magnet synchronous motor. Based on dq0 reference frame of SRM, the most suitable dq0 axis current of next moment corresponding to different torque errors is calculated and predicted. According to the calculated dq0 axis current, the optimal space voltage vectors can be selected to reduce torque ripple. In order to verify the effectiveness and correctness of the proposed scheme, DB-DTFC is verified and compared with the DTC-SVM by simulation.
