Dual Mode Symmetrical Proportional Resonant Controlled Quadratic Boost Converter for PMSM-Drive

Abstract

Power electronics-based converters have been widely used in several applications, specifically electric propulsion systems. Ongoing advancements in converters have led to high-gain Quadratic Boost Converters (QBC) which control Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drive. In this work, a novel scheme is employed, particularly a three-phase inverter between QBC and PMSM operated by a dual-mode controller strategy. Precisely, the novelty of this work is to use the quadratic boost converter to control the PMSM drive by applying different control strategies. This work also demonstrates the simulation of two different current control strategies applied to a Semi-Converter (SC) fed QBC based on PMSM-based EV. It also presents the strategy, inquiry, and model of SC-based QBC three-phase inverter (TPI) fed PMSM with symmetrical operated PI (Proportional Integral), FOPID (Fractional Order Proportional Integral Derivative), and PR (Proportional Resonant) controllers. The simulated results offer a significant improvement in PMSM parameters compared with the PI-PI framework, notably voltage, speed, and torque against source disturbances. Further, the PR-PR control approach provides better time-domain parameters than the PI-PI control strategy (including the least rise time (Tr) of 1.15 s, peak time (Tp) of 2.38 s, settling time (Ts) of 4.12 s, and steady-state error (Ess) of 4.89 s). Furthermore, the experimental module is designed to test the effectiveness of the proposed control strategies and was found to be more advantageous in dual mode symmetric PR-PR controlled SC-based QBC-TPI fed PMSM.
