A PMSM Control System for Electric Vehicle Using Improved Exponential Reaching Law and Proportional Resonance Theory

Permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) provides a very competitive technology for electric vehicle (EV) traction drive with its higher power density and higher efficiency. When the control system of PMSM for EV is affected by the change of motor parameters and the interference from the external environment, the motor system cannot provide high-quality dynamic performance in time. In the paper, an EV motor control strategy based on improved sliding mode and proportional resonance theory is proposed, in which a speed controller is designed based on the improved exponential reaching law. The improved exponential approximation law overcomes chattering in traditional sliding mode control without increasing parameters and improves the anti-interference performance of the EV. In addition, the improved proportional resonance method is used to design the current controller of the PMSM control system, and the combination of the two has been successfully applied to EV for the first time. Finally, the experiment and urban road condition test are carried out to verify. The results show that the proposed scheme can effectively improve the dynamic performance and robustness of the PMSM system for EVs.
