    FPGA based direct torque control with speed loop Pseudo derivative controller for PMSM drive
    (Springer, 2019) Karthikeyan, A.; Koothu Kesavan, K.; Nagamani, C.
    This paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of proposed speed loop pseudo derivative feedback (PDF) controller based DTC with speed loop PI based direct torque controller (DTC) for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive. The proposed PDF-DTC system significantly improves dynamic response i.e. completely eliminates overshoot in speed, reduces 50% overshoot in electromagnetic torque and has two times faster settling time compared to PI-DTC system during step changes in speed with load disturbance. The proposed controller is verified for different cases viz., speed variation at constant load and variation in the load torque at constant speed. The proposed controller is implemented for 1.5 kW laboratory prototype PMSM drive using FPGA ALTERA cyclone II. Experimental results demonstrates the efficacy of the proposed controller. © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

    An Efficient Pseudo-Derivative-Feedback-Based Voltage Controller for DVR Under Distorted Grid Conditions
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021) Krishna, D.G.A.; Karthikeyan, K.; Koothu Kesavan, K.K.; Kumar, S.
    Grid integration of distributed energy resources has become a technical challenge in the distribution network operation due to the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources and their impact on grid voltage stability. Thus, a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is installed in the distribution network system to reduce such grid voltage impact on sensitive loads. In this article, a pseudo-derivative-feedback (PDF)-based voltage controller is implemented for the effective operation of DVR under voltage disturbances. Response of DVR primarily depends upon its controller action. This article addresses the issues in conventional P and PI multiloop controller with and without feedforward path then proposes PDF control strategy for DVR. Using the proposed controller, dynamic performance of DVR is improved. The efficacy of the proposed controller is illustrated by a comparative study with conventional P and PI controller using time response and relative stability analysis. Finally, PSCAD simulation studies for a 10 kV medium voltage DVR and experimental results using a low voltage laboratory prototype DVR are presented to prove the robustness of proposed controller for DVR under symmetric and asymmetric voltage sags. © 2020 IEEE.
