Current Harmonic Suppression in Maritime Vessel Rudder PMSM Drive System Based on Composite Fractional-Order PID Repetitive Controller

Abstract

To address the control performance and harmonic suppression issues in maritime vessel rudder permanent magnet servo systems, a fractional-order PID controller was introduced into the existing improved repetitive control strategy. We used the Oustaloup approximation algorithm and particle swarm optimization for tuning the fractional-order PID controller. The optimized parameters substantially improved the control performance. By integrating the fractional-order PID controller with the improved repetitive controller, a composite fractional-order PID repetitive control strategy was formed. Finally, MATLAB/Simulink simulations were conducted to compare and verify the disturbance rejection and harmonic suppression capabilities of the improved control strategy. The results demonstrate its superior control performance, thereby increasing the practicality of the control system in dealing with various situations.
