The RTU architecture was chosen to be distributed in order to reduce cabling costs and cabling difficulties, caused by the several hundreds of signals that must be connected to the acquisition points (plant interface close to equipment terminals) in a factory. This also provides the means to distribute the processing power between all the units that compose the RTU, and to create two different EMC immunity requirements, one for the field units and other (less restrictive) for the central unit, using one high immunity communication medium as the connection path between all the system components (fiber optic).","PeriodicalId":134474,"journal":{"name":"ISIE '97 Proceeding of the IEEE International Symposium on Industrial Electronics","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126327853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Practically, since real plants have nonlinearities, such as disturbances and unmodelled dynamics, the performance of the controller is worsened. This paper describes an error feedback model which is a reference model with the output error feedback, for improving robustness and stability to nonlinear characteristics. The proposed model can be used for MRAC using the measurable output of the plant and the states of the proposed model.

The numerical realization is made on the basis of nodal analysis and a linearization according to the Newton-Raphson method. All equations are implemented in C-code and combined with the simulator source code, using the PSpice device equation option. As a result, an internal model is created. Due to the thermal network, the IGBT has become a four terminal device. It can be applied to various thermal and electrical circuit topologies.

The key issue of the DTC is the strategy of selecting proper stator voltage vectors to force stator flux and developed torque within a prescribed band. Due to the nature of hysteresis control adopted in DTC there is no difference in control action between a larger torque error and a small one. It is better to divide the torque error into different intervals and give different control voltages. A fuzzy controller has been introduced to deal with this issue. However there arises the problem that the number of rules is too high. This will affect the speed of fuzzy reasoning both in simulation and hardware implementation. In this paper a stator flux angle mapping method is proposed to reduce the rule numbers while keeping the performance of the system satisfactory. To test the fuzzy control strategy a simulation platform using SIMULINK was built which includes an induction motor d-q model, inverter model, fuzzy controller and the stator flux and torque estimator. The simulation results verified the new control strategy.","PeriodicalId":134474,"journal":{"name":"ISIE '97 Proceeding of the IEEE International Symposium on Industrial Electronics","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125693489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These two learning abilities may be seen as cooperating and enhancing each other in order to improve the overall system performance. It is assumed that the robot knows its own current world position. It is only additionally assumed that the mobile robot is able to perform sensor-based obstacle detection (not avoidance), and that it is able to perform straight-line motions.
