Abstract
This article identifies the parameters of an induction machine using limited and nonintrusive observations of available input voltages, stator currents, and the rotor speed. Parameter extraction is formulated as a nonconvex estimation problem, which is then relaxed to a convex conic optimization problem. While the resulting relaxation could exhibit a satisfactory performance, there might be cases where the solution of convex relaxation fails to satisfy the dynamic equations of the machine. This is remedied through a local search approach initiated using the solution obtained from the relaxed problem. The proposed method is experimentally verified on a squirrel-cage induction machine with missing measured data. Using the measured signals as the benchmark, time-domain transients produced by the parameters estimated using the proposed method show almost 20% better match compared to time-domain transients produced by the parameters obtained via conventional testing.
