Abstract

This paper presents a novel speed control scheme of an induction motor (IM) using fuzzy logic control. The fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is based on the indirect vector control. The fuzzy logic speed controller is employed in the outer loop. The complete vector control scheme of the IM drive incorporating the FLC is experimentally implemented using a digital signal processor board DS-1102 for the laboratory 1 hp squirrel cage induction motor. The performances of the proposed FLC based IM drive are investigated and compared to those obtained from the conventional proportional integral (PI) controller based drive both theoretically and experimentally at different dynamic operating conditions such as sudden change in command speed, step change in load, etc. The comparative experimental results show that the FLC is more robust and hence found to be a suitable replacement of the conventional PI controller for the high performance industrial drive applications.
