This paper exhibits a point by point comparison between Neuro Fuzzy and Genetic Algorithm GA based control systems of Induction Motor drive, underlining favorable circumstances and drawbacks. Industries are advancing and upgrading generation line to enhance efficiency and quality. Induction machines are considered by nonlinear, time varying dynamics, inaccessibility of few states and thus can be considered as a challenging issue. In this paper, a novel method using modified GA is presented to limit electric losses of Induction Motor and it is compared with Neuro Fuzzy Controller. GA is a subordinate of AI, whose principle relies upon Darwin’s theory—struggle for existence and the survival of the fittest. The technique for deciding the gain parameters of PI controller utilizing GA whose output is utilized to control the torque applied to the Induction Motor in this way controlling its speed. The gains of PI controller are improved with the assistance of GA to upgrade the performance of IM drive. The results are simulated in MATLAB Simulink and are related with the conventional PI controller and Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy controller (NFC). NFC is less complicated and gives great speed precision yet GA based PI controller produces significantly reduced torque and speed ripples compared with other controllers, in this way limiting losses in IM drives.

Due to the nonlinearities of the PI controller, the performance of the PI controller is not satisfactory. The gains must be properly selected after changes in control parameters is one of the issues of the PI controller. The modified type 2 Neuro-Fuzzy torque controller of indirect vector control-based induction motor drive is proposed in this paper by taking single input as an error i.e. speed and torque against two inputs error and change in error of conventional T2NFC.The superiority of fuzzy and neural networks has been utilized by T2NFC as type 2 MF’s consist of fuzzy and FOU. The intersection point of the membership function is smaller so that the value of the centroid method is more precise than the T1NFC. The induction motor parameters, such as stator phase current, speed, and torque of the proposed T2NFC are simulated in MATLAB at different operating conditions and compared with PI, T1NFC controllers. The proposed T2NFC significantly minimizes the ripples in torque of the induction motor in comparison with PI and T1NF controllers. The practical implementation is also carried out with a 3.7 KW induction motor using DSP 2812 controller to analyse induction motor parameters in real-time.

<p>This paper directed the speed-sensorless vector control of induction motor drive with PI and fuzzy controllers.  Natural observer with fourth order state space model is employed to estimate the speed and rotor fluxes of the induction motor. The formation of the natural observer is similar to and as well as its attribute is identical to the induction motor. Load torque adaptation is provided to estimate the torque and rotor speed is estimated from the load torque, rotor fluxes and stator currents. There is no direct feedback in natural observer and also observer gain matrix is absent. Both the induction motor and the observer are characterized by state space model. Simple fuzzy logic controller and conventional PI controllers are used to control the speed of the induction motor in closed loop. MATLAB simulations are made with PI and fuzzy controllers and the performance of fuzzy controller is better than PI controller in view of torque ripples. The simulation results are obtained for various running conditions to exhibit the suitability of this method for sensorless vector control. Experimental results are provided for natual observer based sensorless vector control with conventional PI controller.</p>
