Backstepping wavelet neural network control for indirect field-oriented induction motor drive.

This study address a newly designed decoupling system and a backstepping wavelet neural network (WNN) control system for achieving high-precision position-tracking performance of an indirect field-oriented induction motor (IM) drive. First, a decoupling mechanism with an online inverse time-constant estimation algorithm is derived on the basis of model reference adaptive system theory to preserve the decoupling control characteristic of an indirect field-oriented IM drive. Moreover, based on the backstepping design methodology, a desired feedback control law is developed for ensuring the favorable control performance. However, the uncertainties, such as mechanical parameter uncertainty, external load disturbance, unstructured uncertainty due to nonideal field orientation in transient state, and unmodeled dynamics in practical applications, are difficult to know in advance. Thus, the stability of the desired feedback control may be destroyed. Due to the powerful approximation ability of WNN, a backstepping WNN control scheme is designed in this study to control the rotor position of an indirect field-oriented IM drive for periodic motion. This control scheme contains two parts: one is a WNN control that is utilized to mimic the desired feedback control law, and the other is a robust control that is designed to recover the residual part of approximation for ensuring the stable control characteristic. In addition, numerical simulation and experimental results due to periodic commands are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

Adaptive hybrid control for linear piezoelectric ceramic motor drive using diagonal recurrent CMAC network.

This paper presents an adaptive hybrid control system using a diagonal recurrent cerebellar-model-articulation-computer (DRCMAC) network to control a linear piezoelectric ceramic motor (LPCM) driven by a two-inductance two-capacitance (LLCC) resonant inverter. Since the dynamic characteristics and motor parameters of the LPCM are highly nonlinear and time varying, an adaptive hybrid control system is therefore designed based on a hypothetical dynamic model to achieve high-precision position control. The architecture of DRCMAC network is a modified model of a cerebellar-model-articulation-computer (CMAC) network to attain a small number of receptive-fields. The novel idea of this study is that it employs the concept of diagonal recurrent neural network (DRNN) in order to capture the system dynamics and convert the static CMAC into a dynamic one. This adaptive hybrid control system is composed of two parts. One is a DRCMAC network controller that is used to mimic a conventional computed torque control law due to unknown system dynamics, and the other is a compensated controller with bound estimation algorithm that is utilized to recover the residual approximation error for guaranteeing the stable characteristic. The effectiveness of the proposed driving circuit and control system is verified with hardware experiments under the occurrence of uncertainties. In addition, the advantages of the proposed control scheme are indicated in comparison with a traditional integral-proportional (IP) position control system.

Intelligent motion control for linear piezoelectric ceramic motor drive.

Since the dynamic characteristics of a linear piezoelectric ceramic motor (LPCM) are highly nonlinear and time varying, it is difficult to design a suitable motor drive and position controller that realizes accurate position control at all time. This study investigates a double-inductance double-capacitance (LLCC) resonant driving circuit and a sliding-mode fuzzy-neural-network control (SMFNNC) system for the motion control of an LPCM. First, the motor structure and LLCC driving circuit of an LPCM are introduced. The LLCC resonant inverter is designed to operate at an optimal switching frequency such that the output voltage will not be influenced by the variation of quality factor. Moreover, a SMFNNC system is designed to achieve favorable tracking performance without precise dynamic models being controlled. All adaptive learning algorithms in the SMFNNC system are derived in the sense of Lyapunov stability analysis, so that system-tracking stability can be guaranteed in the closed-loop system. The effectiveness of the proposed driving circuit and control system is verified by experimental results.

Wavelet neural network control for linear ultrasonic motor drive via adaptive sliding-mode technique.

A wavelet neural network (WNN) control system is proposed to control the moving table of a linear ultrasonic motor (LUSM) drive system to track periodic reference trajectories in this study. The design of the WNN control system is based on an adaptive sliding-mode control technique. The structure and operating principle of the LUSM are introduced, and the driving circuit of the LUSM, which is a voltage source inverter using two-inductance two capacitance (LLCC) resonant technique, is introduced. Because the dynamic characteristics and motor parameters of the LUSM are nonlinear and time varying, a WNN control system is designed based on adaptive sliding-mode control technique to achieve precision position control. In the WNN control system, a WNN is used to learn the ideal equivalent control law, and a robust controller is designed to meet the sliding condition. Moreover, the adaptive learning algorithms of the WNN and the bound estimation algorithm of the robust controller are derived from the sense of Lyapunov stability analysis. The effectiveness of the proposed WNN control system is verified by some experimental results in the presence of uncertainties.

Robust control of linear ceramic motor drive with LLCC resonant technique.

This study presents a robust control system for a linear ceramic motor (LCM) that is driven by a high-frequency voltage source inverter using two-inductance two-capacitance (LLCC) resonant technique. The structure and driving principle of the LCM are introduced. Because the dynamic characteristics and motor parameters of the LCM are nonlinear and time varying, a robust control system is designed based on the hypothetical dynamic model to achieve high-precision position control. The presentation of robust control for the LCM drive system is divided into three parts, which comprise state feedback controller, feed-forward controller, and uncertainty controller. The adaptation laws of control gains in the robust control system are derived in the sense of Lyapunov stability theorem such that the stability of the control system can be guaranteed. It not only has the learning ability similar to intelligent control, but also its control framework is more simple than intelligent control. With the proposed robust control system, the controlled LCM drive possesses the advantages of good tracking control performance and robustness to uncertainties. The effectiveness of the proposed robust control system is verified by experimental results in the presence of uncertainties. In addition, the advantages of the proposed control system are indicated in comparison with the traditional integral-proportional (IP) position control system.
