Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are excited to announce a new Special Issue in Machines, “Data-Driven Control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) Drives”.

Permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) are being increasingly used in various applications, such as electric vehicles, wind turbines, robotics, and industrial automation. This Special Issue aims to provide an overview of the latest research and developments regarding the data-driven control technology of PMSM drives.

We seek original research papers covering a wide range of topics, including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Data-Driven Predictive Control: Optimization-based and Predictive Control strategies utilizing data-driven approaches for PMSM drives.
  • System Identification: Data-driven identification and parameter estimation methods for PMSM systems.
  • Adaptive and Learning Control: Adaptive control strategies and machine learning-based approaches utilizing real-time data.
  • Reliability and Lifecycle Optimization: Strategies to enhance system robustness, extend the operational lifespan, and improve the overall reliability of PMSM drives.
  • Efficiency and Performance Optimization: Data-driven methods aimed at enhancing the overall performance of PMSM systems.

We welcome submissions from researchers, engineers, and practitioners in academia, industry, and government. We look forward to receiving your contributions and making this Special Issue a success.

Abstract
In this paper, the model reference adaptive system (MRAS) method has been employed to observe speed in sensorless field-oriented control (FOC) with flux weakening (FW) and maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) operations for the interior permanent-magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). This paper focuses on [...] Read more.
In this paper, the model reference adaptive system (MRAS) method has been employed to observe speed in sensorless field-oriented control (FOC) with flux weakening (FW) and maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) operations for the interior permanent-magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). This paper focuses on the modified MRAS observer, which is based on the sigmoid function as a switching function and also the adaptive sliding mode coefficient. The sliding mode strategies are employed for the adaptation mechanism instead of the PI controller. The conventional PI-MRAS causes oscillations in rotor speed. To solve this problem, the modified adaptive super-twisting algorithm (STA)-based MRAS method is proposed by utilizing the sigmoid function. The proposed modified MRAS is compared to conventional methods. Additionally, it is examined for performance against the fast terminal sliding mode (FTSM), which is applied to the MRAS as an adaptation mechanism in terms of sliding mode strategies. The modified STA-MRAS is explored under the ECE and EUDC (Extra Urban Driving Cycle) drive cycles for electric vehicle applications. Finally, the obtained results show the validity and capability of the proposed adaptive STA-MRAS in terms of speed tracking. Full article
