Synchronous reference frame proportional-integral (PI) current controller (CC) is considered the most well-established solution for the current regulation in electrical drives. However, the gain selection of the PI CC is still regarded to be poorly reported, particularly in relation to the effect of the inevitable execution time taken by the controller and inverter. Mostly, tuning process of PI CC is done by trial and error or using simple rules based on pole zero cancelation and pole placement methods which ignore time delays through the controller and inverter. Hence, PI CC delivers significantly different performance compared to the expected one during the digital implementation, especially if high bandwidth or low ratio between the switching and operational frequency are required. Therefore, this paper firstly addresses and analyses the common tuning rules of PI CC which ignore the existence of time delays followed by a rigorous analysis for PI CCs' robustness to the influence of computational and modulation delays. Based on this analysis, generic recommendations have been proposed to select the PI CCs' gains as a function of the electrical drive switching frequency considering the delay effect. A set of simple, generic, and fast tuning rules were derived that guarantee fast dynamic performance with reasonable stability margins. Moreover, the effects of model uncertainties on these developed rules have been analyzed and reported. Comprehensive experimental results are provided to prove the key analytical results of this study and to validate the proposed design recommendations.

“…receding horizon control), an operational power management could use a two-stage control methodology consisting of some form of EMS optimisation and a continuously modulated mechanism (e.g. PID, predictive control) in order to exploit pre-driving and on-line power allocation [22], [40], [64]. In the former stage (pre-driving), the system could use a ground movement forecast [4], [65], [66] (e.g.…”

Aircraft taxiing is conventionally performed using the main engines' inefficient idle thrust. Therefore, in line with greener aviation, the electrification of taxiing is the most viable option to reduce emissions, noise, and fossil fuel consumption during ground operations. This paper studies the potential of hybridising the conventional electric taxiing system, which is currently driven by the Auxiliary Power Unit, with an electrical energy storage system, comprising commercial high-energy and high-power lithium-ion batteries, for the purpose of reducing fuel consumption. Hence, a power distribution optimisation is formulated to minimise fuel consumption over a typical worst-case taxi-out profile. Three different energy management strategies are presented for a narrow-body aeroplane. The optimisation is performed for the selection of off-the-shelf batteries so that their impact on fuel savings can be evaluated in the early design stage.The study showed that a wide range of savings is achievable according to the selected strategy, the added weight allowance and the battery characteristics. Considering a 180 kg added weight allowance and covering the three investigated strategies, up to 72% of taxiing fuel is saved.

Many issues can degrade the electrical drive performance such as cross-coupling, time delay, external disturbances, and parameter variation. The Synchronous Reference Frame (SRF) PI Current Controller (CC) is the most popular control scheme for the motor drive current control due to its simplicity. However, the PI controller does not have an optimal dynamic response due to the reasonably low transient response of the integral parts. Furthermore, the tuning of the PI controller depends heavily on the machine's parameters. Recently, alternative control schemes such as Model Predictive Control (MPC) and Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) are studied due to their dynamic performance and disturbance rejection capability, respectively. This paper presents a comparative study between the conventional PI, ADRC, and MPC control schemes applied for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) taking into consideration the operational issues of electrical drives.
