Practical interval type-2 fuzzy self-tuning of PID controller to servo permanent magnet synchronous motor

Abstract

AbstractThis paper implements a practical interval type-2 fuzzy self-tuning (IT2FST) of optimal PID (OPID) controller to servo permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM). The proposed method IT2FST updates the OPID controller gains in an online manner to drive the SPMSM with better speed response during variable load and parameter uncertainty occurrence. In this work, the industrial SPMSM system comprises three-phase PMSM with internal break, drive and mechanical parts. Due to the incomplete real information of the SPMSM, nonlinear least square algorithm has been utilized for its model identification. A comparative analysis in a real time of the SPMSM with an OPID, type-1 fuzzy self-tuning and IT2FST for OPID controllers under the influence of parameter uncertainties and external load disturbances has been carried out. The real-time practical implementation results illustrated that the proposed IT2FST of OPID controller gives a simple opportunity to enhance the speed performance of the SPMSM than the other controllers.
