Simulated Annealing, Induction Motor, Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and Optimisation
The use of an Extended Kalman Filter as an observer for a sensorless Induction Motor is longstanding. However, little attempt has been made to optimise the filter performance. This paper proposes a Simulated Annealing algorithm to solve the tuning process of the EKF covariance matrices. The optimisation technique of EKF using Simulated Annealing is illustrated through simulation implementation by constant V/f control of an IM. The paper concentrates on finding the setting of the EKF parameters and the performance is compared to use of trial and error.
