This paper presents a cascaded robust fault-tolerant predictive control (CRFTPC) strategy with integral terminal sliding mode observer (IT-SMO) to achieve high performance speed loop and current loop for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. The modeling of PMSM considers the disturbance caused by parameter perturbation and permanent magnet demagnetization. With this model, we can derive the optimal control law of the proposed scheme, which avoids the tuning work of the weight factor effectively. This new CRFTPC strategy has a cascaded structure, external loop and internal loop, both implemented with robust fault-tolerant predictive control. In addition, a new integral terminal sliding mode observer is designed to estimate the disturbances, and thus the robustness of the proposed method can be increased significantly. Comparative simulations and experimentations verify that the proposed CRFTPC provides fast dynamic response, static-errorless speed, and current tracking, even with the system disturbance.

The present paper deals with an active fault-tolerant speed tracking of a five-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor with currents and speed sensor failures. The active fault tolerant control scheme, integrating a sliding mode observer and backstepping controllers, is proposed to provide a continuous drive operation of the five-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor, even during more than one sensor fault occurrence. The sliding mode observer is designed to generate the residual signal necessary for the detection stage, whereas speed and current backstepping controllers handle the operation of the five-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor thanks to their ability to consider the nonlinearities of the system model in generating a control law that is robust enough in healthy and faulty cases. Furthermore, the FTC strategy uses the information received from the fault-tolerant switching block in terms of the measured and the observed currents and speed signals. To gain the maximum benefit of the sliding mode observer’s robustness to random noises and its ease of implementation, the observed currents and speed of the five-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor have been estimated. The simulation results are conducted to show the effectiveness of the proposed FTC control scheme and to prove its high performance in fault detection and tolerant control for the five-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor, since it significantly outperforms the performance provided by traditional methods.

This article presents an improved super-twisting high-order sliding mode observer for permanent magnet synchronous motors to achieve high-performance sensorless control. The proposed observer is able to simultaneously estimate rotor position and speed, as well as track parameter disturbances online. Then, according to the back-EMF model, the sensorless observer is further constructed to improve the estimation effect. The estimated rotor position and speed are used to replace the actual values detected by the sensor, and the estimated parameter disturbances are considered as feedback values to compensate the command voltage. In this way, not only is the estimation accuracy improved, but the robustness against uncertainties is also enhanced. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed observer can effectively track the rotor position and speed and obtain good dynamic and steady-state performance.

In this paper, a novel method is presented to improve the speed-sensorless control performance of an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor using a nonsingular fast terminal sliding-mode observer and fractional-order software phase-locked loop. The interior permanent magnet synchronous motor system is first described. Next, a nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode observer is constructed to estimate the d-q-axis back electromotive force. The speed and position of the rotor are then accurately tracked using a fractional-order software phase-locked loop. The effectiveness and feasibility are verified through a simulation in MATLAB/Simulink. The results show an excellent performance despite a fluctuation in speed and torque ripple.

This paper presents the development and experimentation of Fault-Tolerant Control (FTC) for sensorless Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drive with stator resistance tuning. In the fault-tolerant inverter, a redundant leg is added to replace the faulted leg. Consequently, the proposed inverter is a modified topology inverter with fault-tolerant capability, which can be configured as 3-phase 8-switch inverter. The detection of the faulty leg is based only on the output inverter currents measurement. To make toggle to a redundant leg in case of fault occurrence, a Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) algorithm is proposed in this paper. Experimental results are presented using a 1.4[Formula: see text]kW, three poles three-phases PMSM. These results show that the proposed FDI algorithm is able to detect and to isolate the open-phase fault in PMSM drive.
