This paper presents two methods for designing special purpose controllers for permanent magnet synchronous motor. The main target of the designed controllers is to reduce torque ripples of this type of motors. The first proposed adaptive method is based on two loop controllers (current controller and speed controller) in addition to using space vector pulse width modulation to maximize fundamen...

The article focuses on the issues of Load Frequency Control (LFC) under non-linear strategies in multi source multi area hydro thermal system. On practical perspective dead band, boiler dynamics, reheat steam turbine along with hydro turbine operating under two different area capacities are considered in the system. When subjected to random load variations in both the areas, the system exhibits...

This paper proposes a fuzzy gain scheduled output feedback control for variable-speed variable-pitch wind turbine in full load region. The proposed method is based on modeling the nonlinear system as a family of systems linearized around a specific operating point. The goal is to design optimal PI controllers based on linear models and a fuzzy scheduler. The parameters of each PI controller are...

This paper presents the PI controller design for coupled tank as Single Input Single Output (SISO) process using Characteristic Ratio Assignment (CRA) method.CRA is an approach to directly control the transient response of linear time invariant control systems. The transient response for all pole transfer function of n order system can be controlled by introducing a set of parameters(αi) charac...

This paper presents a fuzzy logic based speed control system for a current source PWM inverter fed indirect field oriented control of induction motors (IM). In this work the conventional PI controller is replaced by fuzzy based intelligent controller. The fuzzy logic controller employs different types of membership functions for each parameter for the efficient control of the drive system. The ...

Since random early detection (RED) was proposed in 1993, many active queue management (AQM) algorithms have been proposed to support better end-to-end Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) congestion control. In this article, the authors introduce and analyze a feedback control model of the TCP/AQM dynamics. Then they suggest the concept of an AQM algorithm that can detect and avoid congestion pr...

According to nonlinear operation of STATCOM, nonlinear controller has a better performance in comparison with linear controller. Regulating the DC capacitor voltage in STATCOM is a common task and can improve the system dynamic. The nonlinear control is based on exact linearization via feedback. A PI controller exists in this control system to regulate the capacitor voltage. In conventional sch...

This paper presents a technique that can be used in designing an equivalent PI controller to different classes of the known Iterative Learning Control (ILC) namely P-type and high order ILCs. The equivalent PI controller can be explicitly represented in the z domain in contrast to the time domain based ILC, which gives another potential for stability analysis. Moreover, the derived PI controlle...

Non-linear controller is preferred to linear controller due to non-linear operation of DSTATCOM. System dynamic can be improved by regulating and fixing the capacitor DC voltage in DSTATCOM. The nonlinear control is based on exact linearization via feedback. There is a PI controller in this system to regulate DC voltage. In conventional scheme, the trial and error method is used to determine PI...
