Four quardrant operation of direct torque controlled PMSM drive using speed loop PDFF controller

Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of proposed speed loop pseudo derivative feedforward (PDFF) controller based DTC, speed loop PI based direct torque controller (DTC) and speed loop PI based hysteresis current controller (HCC) for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive. The proposed controller reduces the torque and stator current ripples and significantly reduces overshoot and oscillation in the actual rotor speed. The proposed controller is verified for different cases viz., forward and reverse motoring, forward and reverse braking operation. The simulations are carried out through MATLAB/Simulink for 1.2 hp PMSM drive and results demonstrates the efficacy of the proposed controller.
