Hierarchical modeling and speed control of networked induction motor systems

Abstract

This paper proposes a hierarchical modeling method and a fuzzy speed control strategy for nonlinear networked induction motor systems subject to network induced time delay and packets dropout. The networked induction motor control system consists of a networked speed controller and a local controller. Fuzzy gain scheduling is applied on the networked speed controller to guarantee the robustness against complicated variations on the communication network. The state predictor is to compensate the time delay occurred in data transmission in the feedback channel. In stability analysis, the upper allowed limits of the time delay and packets dropout are calculated using the Lyapunov-Krasovskii theorem, respectively. Simulation and experimental results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach
