A new field oriented control with synergetic control for an urban electric vehicle
Abstract
This paper suggests a new field-oriented control strategy based on synergetic control for an urban electric vehicle propelled by a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM). The overall study system is explained, with a synergetic approach, no linearization or simplification of the model is required. The method of controllers’ synthesis is analytical and it depends on non-linear models of the PMSM, also, to design the proposed synergetic controllers, three-manifolds of stator current and the speed of the propel PMSM are selected. A comparison study between the proposed strategy and the conventional one based on PI controllers using a dynamic model of a lightweight vehicle is established. The simulation results show the proposed control’s superiority, robustness, and effectiveness in static and dynamic performances; this has a direct impact on the vehicle’s comfort and energy consumption.
