Chaotic Heterogeneous Comprehensive Learning Particle Swarm Optimizer Variants for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Models Parameters Estimation

Abstract

Chaotic response in the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is an undesirable performance that may affect motor stability. This unexpected behavior occurs due to the disruption in the system parameters and load disturbance. To control this unwanted performance, it’s essential to introduce a robust method to determine the PMSM model parameters efficiently and expeditiously. Two PMSM models depending on the type of its nonlinear differential equations are investigated. The first one is the integer-order PMSM model, while the other is the fractional-order model. In this work, novel developed optimization variants called chaotic heterogeneous comprehensive learning particle swarm optimizer (CHCLPSO) is proposed. In CHCLPSO, the standard heterogeneous comprehensive learning particle swarm optimizer (HCLPSO) is cooperated into ten different chaos maps to adjust some of its parameters. Six CHCLPSO variables are introduced in addition to the standard HCLPSO version to estimate the parameters of the integer-order and the fractional-order PMSM models that are corresponding to the chaotic behavior. A comparison among the results of the introduced variants and the original algorithm is carried out. Moreover, a comprehensive comparison with other recent algorithms is performed. The primary outcome proves that the chaos maps have a remarkable influence in both of the consistency and the accuracy of the results of the HCLPSO with less execution time over the integer and the fractional-order models, especially CHCLPSO-III and CHCLPSO-V with sinusoidal and piecewise maps, respectively.
