Direct thrust force and flux control of a PM-linear synchronous motor using fuzzy sliding-mode observer

摘要

In this paper, a fuzzy sliding-mode observer, which uses sigmoid function for speed sensorless control of permanent-magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) is proposed. Most of the observers use sign or saturation functions that need low pass filter in order to detecting back electromotive force. In this paper, the sigmoid function is used instead of discontinuous sign function to decrease undesirable chattering phenomenon. By reducing the chattering, detecting back EMF can be done directly from switching signal without any low pass filter. So the delay time because of low pass filter, in the proposed observer is eliminated. Furthermore, there is no need to compensate phase fault in position estimating. The simulation results show advantages of proposed observer over conventional ones.
