A virtual impedance-based flying start considering transient characteristics for permanent magnet synchronous machine drive systems is proposed. The conventional based on resistance (VR) assumes that the load of system resistive. However, maximum value VR, which determined by parameter and sampling frequency, sometimes small. In this case, non-resistive. This assumption error causes an estimate...

Direct torque control (DTC) minimizes the use of machine parameters [1, 2]. Among all methods of torque control in induction motor, direct torque control (DTC) seems to be particularly interesting being independent of machine rotor parameters and requiring no speed or position sensors [3, 4, 5]. In spite of its simplicity, DTC is capable of generating fast torque responses. In DTC the torque an...

Recent research has demonstrated that the rotor angle stability can be assessed by identifying the sign of the system’s maximal Lyapunov exponent (MLE). A positive (negative) MLE implies unstable (stable) rotor angle dynamics. However, because the MLE may fluctuate between positive and negative values for a long time after a severe disturbance, it is difficult to determine the system stability ...

The performance of Switched Reluctance (SR) motor drive systems using rotor position transducers has been satisfactory, but the potential of SR drives for providing economical, robust, compact and reliable drive systems which can operate in harsh environments, has made the development of sensorless system desirable. A system which can detect rotor position without a conventional position sensor...

Wind generation is expected to reach substantially higher levels of penetration in the near future. With the converter interface, the rotor inertia of doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind turbine generator is effectively decoupled from the system, causing a reduction in inertial response. This can be compensated by enabling the DFIG to provide fast frequency response. This paper pro...

The focus of this study is on the attitude estimation of the four-rotor helicopter known as quadrotor. The choice of the algorithm is a complementary filter based on quaternions. For the four-rotor helicopter system has nonlinear, strong coupling, multi-variable features, it is difficult to obtain the accurate attitude values, and in order to solve this problem a quaternion-based complementary ...

The direct torque controlled (DTC) permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) has become attractive because of its simplicity and fast torque response. However, mechanical sensors have caused problems to the system. It is possible to overcome the disadvantage if the initial rotor position is known. For the initial rotor position detection, the structural and magnetic saturation saliencies are fr...
