Incorrect rotor tittle constant value will cause the flux observer generating a wrong angu- lar orientation of the rotor field. A new approach serves for rotor time constant on-line adaptation by setting the stator current to be zero for a short period. A smooth eorrector is designed to prevent ab- normal detection result from making adaptation. Impact of zero current duration on detection error and rotor speed is analyzed by experiments.展开更多

Two famous MIMO techniques have become investigated thoroughly throughout the literature;Spatial Multiplexing, and Space Time Block Coding. On one hand, Spatial Multiplexing offers high data rates. On the other hand, Space Time Block Coding presents transmission fidelity. This imposes a fundamental tradeoff between capacity and reliability. Adaptive MIMO Switching schemes have been proposed to select the MIMO scheme that best fits the channel conditions. However, the switching schemes presented in the literature directly switch between the MIMO endpoints. In this paper, an adaptive MIMO system that incrementally switches from multiplexing towards diversity is proposed. The proposed scheme is referred to as incremental diversity and can be set to operate in two different modes;Rate-Adaptive, and Energy-Conservative Incremental Diversity. Results indicate that the proposed incremental diversity framework achieves transmission reliability offered by MIMO diversity, while maintaining a gradual increase in spectral efficiency (in the Rate-Adaptive mode) or a reduction in required number of received symbols (in the Energy-Conservative mode) with increase in the SNR.展开更多

Since the interference from the narrow band excitation signal is suppressed by the adaptive notch filter, the convergent speed of the on-line control path identification process is significantly improved. As a result, the controller performance is greatly enhanced. Besides the algorithm development, some important factors, such as the influence of reference signal on the controller convergent speed, are also discussed. The effectiveness of the algorithm is verified by experimental results.展开更多

The proposed control strategy is composed of a linear adaptive controller, a neural network(NN) based nonlinear adaptive controller and a switching mechanism. An incremental model is derived to represent the considered system and an improved robust adaptive law is chosen to update the parameters of the linear adaptive controller. A new performance criterion of the switching mechanism is designed to select the proper controller. Using this control scheme, all the signals in the system are proved to be bounded. Numerical examples verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.展开更多
