Abstract

In this article, an improved direct instantaneous torque control (DITC) based on adaptive terminal sliding mode control (ATSMC) is proposed to suppress torque ripple and enhance the anti-interference ability for switched reluctance motors (SRMs). The proposed speed controller used in the outer loop of DITC is based on the rate of change in load torque. The state of the system converges quickly to the equilibrium point and realizes fast output of the given torque without known disturbance upper bound. Moreover, a novel reaching law is proposed to reduce torque ripple and startup time. The stability of the adaptive terminal sliding mode motion is verified by using the Lyapunov function. The improved DITC system is implemented on a 16/10 segmented-rotor SRM. Compared with sliding mode control and terminal sliding mode control, the proposed ATSMC in the DITC system behave with better performances in aspects of the speed and torque response, antiinterference ability, robustness, and torque ripple suppression. Simulation and experimental results are given to verify the effectiveness of the improved DITC.
