Fault tolerant speed regulation of Induction Motor using Artifical Neural Network

This paper successfully develops and investigates the implementation of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based robust speed control strategy for Indirect Vector Control (IVC) three phase Induction Motor (IM) drive. The IM is modeled in terms of dq in synchronously rotating reference frame for IVC in Matlab/Simulink. The main purpose of the proposed design is to accomplish robustness for load disturbances, speed variation, parameter uncertainties, and electrical faults. The performance of aforesaid control technique is compared with that of conventional tuned PI control scheme. Simulation results of the ANN guarantee effectiveness and robustness regarding overshoot, undershoot, rise time, fall time and chattering for different operating condition in comparison to traditional PI control scheme.
