Influence of Covariance-Based ALS Methods in the Performance of Predictive Controllers With Rotor Current Estimation

Abstract

The use of online rotor current estimators with predictive current controllers has been very recently stated in five-phase induction motor drives, where the closed-loop performance of the system is improved by using suboptimal estimators based on Kalman filters. In this paper, the interest of using optimization methods in the definition of the Kalman filter, like the covariance technique, is analyzed. Obtained system performances using optimal and suboptimal rotor current estimators are experimentally compared.
