Estimation Of Speed, Armature Temperature, And Resistance In Brushed Dc Machines Using A Cfnn Based On Bfgs Bp, Hacene Mellah, Kamel Eddine Hemsas, Rachid Taleb, Carlo Cecati Jan 2018

Estimation Of Speed, Armature Temperature, And Resistance In Brushed Dc Machines Using A Cfnn Based On Bfgs Bp, Hacene Mellah, Kamel Eddine Hemsas, Rachid Taleb, Carlo Cecati

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, a sensorless speed and armature resistance and temperature estimator for brushed (B) DC machines is proposed, based on a cascade-forward neural network and quasi-Newton BFGS backpropagation. Since we wish to avoid the use of a thermal sensor, a thermal model is needed to estimate the temperature of the BDC machine. Previous studies propose either nonintelligent estimators that depend on the model, such as the extended Kalman filter and Luenberger's observer, or estimators that do not estimate the speed, temperature, and resistance simultaneously. The proposed method has been verified both by simulation and by comparison with the simulation …


Regularized Estimation Of Hammerstein Systems Using A Decomposition-Based Iterative Instrumental Variable Method, Vikram Saini, Lillie Dewan Jan 2017

Regularized Estimation Of Hammerstein Systems Using A Decomposition-Based Iterative Instrumental Variable Method, Vikram Saini, Lillie Dewan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents a two-step instrumental variable (IV) method to obtain the regularized and consistent parameter estimates of the Hammerstein ARMAX model based on the bilinear parameterized form. The two-step identification method consists of estimating the bilinear parameters in the first step, followed by parameter reduction in the second step. An iterative identification method is proposed, based on the idea of separating the bilinear form in the two separable forms with partial parameters and solving the decomposed model forms iteratively. The IV-based estimation is integrated into the formulated decomposed structure by introducing the instruments constructed from the estimated auxiliary model …


A Simple Approach To Extract The Unknown Parameters Of Pv Modules, Ahmed Hussein Jan 2017

A Simple Approach To Extract The Unknown Parameters Of Pv Modules, Ahmed Hussein

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A simple and accurate technique to compute essential parameters needed for electrical characterization of photovoltaic (PV) modules is proposed. A single-diode model of PV modules, including those with series and shunt resistances, is considered accurate and simple. However, PV module datasheets provided by manufacturers provide current-voltage ($I$-$V)$ characteristics as well as the values of selected parameters at standard test conditions (STC), i.e. solar radiation of 1000 W/m$^{2}$, air temperature of 25 $^{\circ}$C, and air mass AM = 1.5. Consequently, important parameters such as series resistance ($R_{s})$, shunt resistance ($R_{sh})$, photocurrent ($I_{ph})$, and diode reverse-saturation current ($I_{o})$ are not provided by …

The Parallel Resonance Impedance Detection Method For Parameter Estimation Of Power Line And Transformer By Using Csa, Ga, And Pso, Bahadir Akbal, Abdullah Ürkmez

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Power line parameters are an important factor in relay applications and power quality studies. In the literature, the phasor measurement unit method and measuring of current and voltage at two ends of the power line were usually used to estimate the power line parameters. In this study, the parallel resonance impedance detection method was used to estimate the power line parameter to obtain input data. The real measurement values are used to obtain parallel resonance impedance in this method. The real measurement values include the measurement errors of the current and voltage transformer. Thus, the estimated parameter values are realistic. …


Walsh Series Modeling And Estimation In Sensorless Position Control Of Electrical Drives, Hamidreza Shirazi, Jalal Nazarzadeh Jan 2016

Walsh Series Modeling And Estimation In Sensorless Position Control Of Electrical Drives, Hamidreza Shirazi, Jalal Nazarzadeh

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

High-performance electrical drives can be achieved by using field-oriented controllers, which make torque and flux naturally decoupled. A conventional vector-controlled drive has the disadvantage of either requiring flux and speed sensors or being affected by rotor resistance, which varies along with the motor performance. The presented paper focuses on developing a high-performance sensorless rotor flux-oriented controller of an induction machine independent of the rotor resistance variation. This method applies spectral theory of Walsh functions, which are one of the most helpful members of piecewise constant basis functions in solving dynamic models. Inherent characteristics of Walsh functions and application of an …

The subject of modeling and estimating of synchronous motor (SM) parameters is a challenge mathematically. Although effective solutions have been developed for nonlinear systems in artificial intelligence (AI)-based models, problems are faced with the application of these models in power circuits in real-time. One of these problems is the delay time resulting from a complex calculation process and thus the difficulties faced in the design of real-time motor driving circuits. Another important problem regards the difficulty in the realization of a complex AI-based model in microprocessor-based real-time systems. In this study, a new hybrid technique is developed to solve the …

Multiple-Global-Best Guided Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm For Induction Motor Parameter Estimation, Abdul Ghani Abro, Junita Mohamad Saleh

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

An induction motor is the most commonly used motor in industry today. Motor circuit parameters are essential for designing, evaluating performance, and controlling the applications of the motor. However, it is difficult to measure the electric parameters, e.g., resistance and reactance, of induction motors accurately. Therefore, researchers have noted the parameter estimation of induction motors as an essential optimization problem. The artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is an efficient element of bioinspired optimization algorithms and has been successfully applied in numerous engineering applications. However, the ABC algorithm suffers from slow convergence and poor exploitation. Additionally, there are bleak chances of …


Design Of Adaptive Compensators For The Control Of Robot Manipulators Robust To Unknown Structured And Unstructured Parameters, Recep Burkan Jan 2013

Design Of Adaptive Compensators For The Control Of Robot Manipulators Robust To Unknown Structured And Unstructured Parameters, Recep Burkan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, a new adaptive-robust control approach for robot manipulators is developed. The adaptive-robust control law is not only robust to unknown structured parameters but also robust to unknown unstructured parameters such as unstructured joint friction and disturbances. The bounded disturbances and unstructured model are taken into account in a dynamic model and it is assumed that the structured and unstructured parameters are unknown. The structured and unstructured parameters are distinguished between parameters and these parameters are treated separately. Next, new parameter estimation functions are developed for each of the 2 uncertainty groups. After that, the developed dynamic adaptive …

In the estimation problem, 1st-, 2nd-, and 3rd-order fuel cost functions are used, and the estimation problem is formulated as an optimization one. …


Low-Complexity Parameters Estimator For Multiple 2d Domain Incoherently Distributed Sources, Xiansheng Guo, Qun Wan, Xiaofeng Shen, Heng Dou Jan 2011

Low-Complexity Parameters Estimator For Multiple 2d Domain Incoherently Distributed Sources, Xiansheng Guo, Qun Wan, Xiaofeng Shen, Heng Dou

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A new low-complexity parameters estimator for multiple two-dimensional (2D) domain incoherently distributed (ID) sources is presented. One 2D domain ID source is parameterized with four parameters, the central azimuth direction-of-arrival (DOA), azimuth angular spread, central elevation DOA and elevation angular spread. Based on the eigenstructure between the steering matrix and signal subspace, an average total least-squares via rotational invariance technique (TLS-ESPRIT) is used to estimate the central elevation DOA, and then a generalized multiple signal classification (GMUSIC) algorithm is derived to estimate the central azimuth DOA. Utilizing preliminary estimates obtained at a pre-processing stage, the angular spread parameters can be …

The observer is comparably simple and robust relative to the previously developed observers, and yet suitable for online implementation. Simulation studies for the proposed method were conducted in a MATLAB environment. Observer constants and the control parameters were tuned during the simulation studies and used during the experimental study stage. Experimental verification of the …
