A Higher Control Scheme of a Doubly Fed Induction Motor using Super Twisting and Fuzzy Logic
Abstract
Usual vector control scheme employing proportional-integral (PI) regulator for the speed drive of the doubly fed
induction motor (DFIM) have a few disadvantages such as parameter tuning complications, mediocre dynamic performances
and reduced robustness. Consequently, in this paper we propose a new robust control scheme based on super twisting sliding
mode and fuzzy logic of the DFIM supplied by two 2-level SVPWM inverters. The conventional sliding mode control
(SMC) has enormous chattering effect on the electromagnetic torque developed by the DFIM. In order to resolve this
problem, a second order sliding mode technique based on super twisting algorithm and fuzzy logic functions is employed.
The validity of the used approach was tested by using Matlab/Simulink software. Interesting simulation results were
obtained and remarkable advantages of the proposed control scheme were exposed including simple design of the control
system, reduced chattering as well as the other advantages.
