Design, modelling and simulation of a new nonlinear and full adaptive backstepping speed tracking controller for uncertain PMSM

摘要

In this study, a new nonlinear and full adaptive backstepping speed tracking control scheme is developed for an uncertain permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). Except for the number of pole pairs, all the other parameters in both PMSM and load dynamics are assumed unknown. Three phase currents and rotor speed are supposed to be measurable and available for feedback in the controller design. By designing virtual control inputs and choosing appropriate Lyapunov functions, the final control and parameter estimation laws are derived. The overall control system possesses global asymptotic stability; all the signals in the closed loop system remain bounded, according to stability analysis results based on Lyapunov stability theory. Further, the proposed controller does not require computation of regression matrices, with the result that take the nonlinearities in quite general. Simulation results clearly exhibit that the controller guarantees tracking of a time varying desired reference speed trajectory under all the uncertainties in both PMSM and load dynamics without singularity and overparameterization. The results also show that all the parameter estimates converge to their true values on account of the fact that reference speed signal chosen to be sufficiently rich ensures persistency of excitation condition. Consequently, the proposed controller ensures strong robustness against all the parameter uncertainties and unknown bounded load torque disturbance in the PMSM drive system. Numerical simulations demonstrate the performance and feasibility of the proposed controller.
