A Servo System of AC Motor Based on Voltage Modulation Fitting for FPGA and Consideration of Voltage Saturation

Abstract

This paper proposes a space voltage vector modulation (SVM) method for a speed servo system to obtain a quick current response. The proposed SVM method shortens the control lag time of the conventional SVM inverter. In addition, this proposed method is easily implemented of the hardware using a FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) because the proposed SVM equations is transformed into the expressions that hardly needs multiplication. By using the proposed SVM method, the servo system realizes a quick and stable current control with wide bandwidth.
Moreover, by using PI controllers considering the voltage saturation and the torque limiter to the speed servo system, the servo system carries out a stable speed control on voltage saturation. Both the proposed SVM method and the PI controllers considering the voltage saturation are applied to a speed servo system of a vector controlled induction motor. The effectiveness of both the proposed SVM method and the PI controllers considering voltage saturation is verified by the experimental results.
