Implementation of Cuckoo Search Optimized PIDDTC and FLDTC of PMSM with NEDC Reference Speed

In this paper, the New European-Driving-Cycle (NEDC) is used as a reference speed to test the performance of an advanced permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive at a wide range of speed changes. The new advanced artificial intelligent based direct torque control (DTC) speed drives are optimally designed and implemented in real time to achieve high performance with alternating current drive for a PMSM used in Electric Vehicles (EVs), where Cuckoo Search (CS) algorithm is used with the standard DTC (PIDDTC) and with the Fuzzy Logic DTC (FLDTC) based speed controllers. For the real-time implementation of the overall system, dSPACE DS1202 is used and the controllers' responses against the NEDC are obtained. The system is tested at no load and a comparison between the two developed advanced drives is performed.
