Speed Regulation for PMSM Drives Based on a Novel Sliding Mode Controller

Abstract

This paper develops a novel sliding mode control technology and a comprehensive evaluation methodology for speed control of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). In most of the existing literature, only control precision of the speed corrector is investigated. However, the control strategy should be stable to the noise and disturbance caused by the environment and parameter uncertainties. In order to possessing faster dynamic response, stronger anti-interference ability and high stability of input, a highly stable sliding surface is proposed for siding mode control. Unlike most of reaching laws that requires the variation of designed sliding surfaces, this method takes state vectors in consideration. In addition, a comprehensive evaluation algorithm is presented to obtain reasonable assessment on speed control for synchronous PMSMs in different operating phases (starting, transient, steady-state rating). Finally, the simulation results verify the effectiveness and validity of the proposed sliding mode speed controller.
