Projects

Ph.D. Research - Investigations on Parameter Estimation and Controller Design for BLDC Drive fed Position control system

  • Control Engineering
  • BLDC Drives
  • Parameter Estimation
  • PID Controller Design
  • Position Control System

The research focused on investigating and developing robust controller design strategies for BLDC drive-fed position control systems. The key contributions included devising a novel first-order compensator design procedure, implementing ANN-based parameter estimation, and utilizing performance index minimization-based PID controller tuning to achieve optimal position control. The research findings have been published in multiple international journals, contributing to the broader knowledge base in the field of control engineering.

Contributed to the development of a novel first-order compensator design procedure for the optimal position control of BLDC drive-fed position control systems.
