Application of Quadratic Linearization for the Control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor

Abstract EN

Many of the existing control methods for the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) either deal with steady state models or consider dynamic models under particular cases.

A dynamic model of the PM machine allows powerful control-theoretic techniques such as linearization to be applied to the system.

Existing exact feedback linearization of dynamic model of PMSM suffers from singularity issues.

In this paper, we propose a quadratic linearization approach for PMSM based on the approximate linearization technique which does not introduce singularities.

A MATLAB simulation is used to verify the effectiveness of the linearization technique proposed.

Also, to account for higher-order and unmodelled dynamics of PMSM, tuning of the linearizing transformation is proposed and verified using simulation.
