SPEED ESTIMATION AND CONTROL OF INDUCTION MOTOR USING MODERN PREDICTIVE CONTROL
This paper uses model predictive control that is Superior to traditional drive transmission to handle sensorless speed control of induction motor driven by a single stage sun. The proposed system, solar Photovoltaic (PV) array connected with Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) and predictive control system, MRAS. A MPPT algorithm based on perturbation and observation is used for harnessing the full power from a PV series. System predictive control strategy is a predictive control approach to standard optimisation. For less dependency on model parameters, MPC can achieve sufficient control efficiency and has been widely used in process control systems. MRAS speed estimation method was implemented to achieve sensorless operation to boost the device reliability and cost reduction of Hardware. In MATLAB Simulink environment the desired configuration is modelled and simulated.
