Adaptive input-output linearization of induction motors with magnetic saturation

Abstract

The problem of controlling induction motor with magnetic saturation is addressed from an input-output feedback linearization perspective. The induction motor /spl pi/-model is considered. An adaptive input-output feedback linearizing controller is developed under the assumption of measurable states but unknown rotor resistance and load torque, which are both online estimated by the controller. Simulation results are provided for illustration.
