Abstract

In this paper, two architectures of artificial neural networks (ANNs) are developed and used to correct the performance of sensorless nonlinear control of induction motor systems. Feed-forward multilayer perception, an Elman recurrent ANN, and a two-layer feedforward ANN is used in the control process. The method is based on the use of ANN to get an appropriate correction for improving the estimated speed. Simulation and experimental results were carried out for the proposed control system. An induction motor fed by voltage source inverter was used in the experimental system. A digital signal processor and field-programmable gate arrays were used to implement the control algorithm.
