Abstract

This study presents an approach for the speed control of a permanent magnet DC motor drive via Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technique and a DC/DC converter. The Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique is used to minimize a time domain objective function and obtain the optimal controller parameters. The performance of the proposed technique has been evaluated using various types of disturbances including load torque variations. Simulation results illustrate clearly the robustness of the controller and validity of the design technique for controlling the speed of permanent magnet motors.
