A nonlinear predictive controller (NPC) for a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is proposed in this paper. Its objective is high performance tracking of the rotor speed trajectory while maintaining the d-axis component of the armature current at zero. The load torque and the mismatched...

The multi-criteria predictive control of nonlinear dynamical systems based on Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and genetic algorithms (GAs) are considered. The (ANNs) are used to determine process models at each operating level; the control action is provided by minimizing a set of control...
