Abstract

In this paper, we propose a nonlinear observer-based adaptive controller for induction motors with unknown load. With the use of the skew-symmetric property of induction motors, a two-stage design technique is applied to construct an observer-based controller for velocity tracking control. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, a voltage-control type of drive system is set up to perform the task of velocity tracking. The main computing facility consists of two personal computers, PC 486 and PC 286, of which one is to perform the calculation of the control law and the other is to provide the function of pulse width modulation (PWM) and to generate the gating pulses. Satisfactory experimental results are shown in the paper
