Adaptive gain scheduling with feedforward control system based on system model for PMSM

A feedforward controller for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) has been proposed in this study, and proportional and integral gain could be self-adaptive under different operating conditions. The control structure used in the feedforward system is the same as in the feedback control system. This control structure could guarantee independence of the speed command input to output with the disturbance input to output, which makes the system have better reference trajectory tracking and disturbances rejection. In order to obtain optimal control performance when the parameters are uncertain, a gain scheduling adaptive controller is used in the feedforward system. The proposed controller has been verified by the experimental and simulation results with less steady-state error and better dynamic response than the controllers without it under the condition of external load torque disturbance and PMSM parameter uncertainties.
