This method also takes into account the parameter uncertainties (structural uncertainties) of the system and the external load torque interference (unstructured uncertainty).The former is compensated by adaptive control, and the latter by robust term. Feedforward elimination technology can integrate them together, and effectively reduce the influence of chaos on system performance and realize the high precision position tracking of the permanent magnet synchronous motor system. The Lyapunov method is used to prove the stability of the controller. The simulation results show that the method is better in robustness and control precision. Keywords permanent magnet synchronous motor, chaos, adaptive robust control, parameter uncertainty, external disturbance 1. Introduction With the development of permanent magnet materials, permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) has been widely applied in the elevator, the ship electric propulsion and hybrid car and many other areas (Mark & Vairamani, 2014; Xu & Yao, 2001; Yao, Hu, & Wang, 2012). In recent years, however, the research results show that the permanent magnet synchronous motor within a fixed parameter range may appear chaotic behavior, which lead to low frequency oscillation, and irregular electromagnetic www.scholink.org/ojs/index.php/asir Applied Science and Innovative Research Vol. 8, No. 2, 2024 34 Published by SCHOLINK INC. noise problems, reducing stability of the system variation (Hemail, 1994; Li, Park, Joo, Zhang, & Chen, 2002; Saberi Nik & Gorder, 2013; Saberi Nik, Gorder, & Gambi, 2015; Chua & Chen, 2003; Jing, Yu, & Chen, 2004; Wang & Chau, 2009; Krishnendu & Urmila, 2013). Therefore, it is very necessary and urgent to design an efficient controller to control and eliminate the chaos of the Magnet Synchronous Motor System based on the analysis and understanding of the chaotic dynamic characteristics of this system. Control system for permanent magnet synchronous motor chaotic state, scholars carried out extensive research both at home and abroad. Among various kinds of chaos control method, earlier OGY method (Ott, Grebogi, & Yorke, 1990) is proposed, the method using chaos occurs attractor in the unstable periodic orbit has the sensitivity to small parameter perturbation and ergodicity of chaos movement characteristic, adding the small parameter perturbation control quantity to chaotic systems to make the system state control on a fixed point. However, this method for the stability of the time is too long. Literature (Zhang, Chau, & Wang, 2013) in this paper, a time delay feedback control (TDFC) of permanent magnet synchronous motor chaotic control method, the method avoids some limiting factors of the open loop and nonlinear closed-loop control, for any goal, the transfer domain of chaotic system of the control is global, avoiding the complicated calculation about determining the scope of the transfer domain. The control target of this method, however, must be in the balance of the system or unstable periodic orbit, and time delay in reality is difficult to determine. Literature (Ren & Ding, 2006; Babaei, Nazarzadeh, & Faiz, 2008) proposed a nonlinear feedback control method to control limit cycle stability and amplitude of the controlled system according to actual needs. This approach, however, is only under the condition of parameter uncertainty, when the parameters change greatly, it significantly reduce the control performance. Aiming at this problem, a kind of adaptive nonlinear feedback control method is proposed by Literature (Hu, Liu, Ma, & Ullah, 2015; Yao, Jiao, Ma, & Yan, 2014; Yao, Bu, Reedy, & Chiu, 2000; Yao, Jiao, & Ma, 2014; Sun, Gao, & Kaynak, 2013; Underwood & Husain, 2010; Yao, Jiao, & Ma, 2015), an adaptive law of the method is designed to estimate the unknown parameters of permanent magnet synchronous motor, and eliminated by feedforward technology on the structure of the unknown parameters bringing uncertainty to compensate. However, existing in the system for permanent magnet synchronous motor, unstructured uncertainties, such as load torque disturbance in the system, the adaptive controller regards it as the known variables without processing. But in fact the load torque is usually unknown and changes over time. The unstructured uncertainties affects the precision of the permanent magnet synchronous motor motion control system and performance, when the unstructured uncertainties become larger, adaptive control can even lead to instability of the control system. System for permanent magnet synchronous motor, parameter uncertainties and external disturbance torque, this paper proposes an adaptive robust control method of permanent magnet synchronous motor chaotic inhibition and high precision speed tracking control, the method at the same time considering the parameter uncertainty (structure uncertainty) and the external load torque disturbance (unstructured uncertainty). This method is used in adaptive control to compensate the former, the robust www.scholink.org/ojs/index.php/asir Applied Science and Innovative Research Vol. 8, No. 2, 2024 35 Published by SCHOLINK INC. compensation term the latter, and they are eliminated by feedforward technology integration together. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. 2. The Chaos Dynamic Property Analysis of PMSM Permanent magnet synchronous motor system transformation model (Hu, Liu, Ma, & Ullah, 2015) describes as follows:         d q L uxyzz uyxzy Txyx ~ ~)( ~ )(      (1) Among them: z RB Lp zy RB Lp yx L R x equ fdqn equ fdqn q ~~~   ,, dq iziyx  ~,~,~  equ fdn equ qequ RB p RJ LB 2   , L equ q Lq equ fdqn qd equ fdqn d T JR L Tu BR LP uu BR LP u 2 2 ,22 ~~,~   Among them, du and qu respectively represent axis and quadrature axis stator voltage, di and qi respectively represent axis and quadrature axis of the stator current, R is for stator winding resistance, dL and qL represent axis and quadrature axis stator inductance, ffd  5.1 is for axial magnetic flux nP , signify logarithmic,  indicate motor angular frequency, equJ on behalf of the equivalent moment of inertia of polar coordinates, LT indicate external load torque, equB indicate the equivalent viscous damping coefficient. Through the analysis of the type (1) we can know, when 6 ~ 5.10  T, , the control parameter is set to 0~,~  dq uxu . The speed is closed-loop linear feedback control, and change from 1 to 500, the system Hopf bifurcate as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1.

When 8.24 , using the method of order 4 KuttaRunge , we can calculate the numerical solution of chaos model to get the phase trajectory of the system. As you can see phase trajectory within a bounded become disordered, which means it has entered into a state of chaos, as shown in Figure 2. a) Azimuth74o, Elevation angle-42o b) Azimuth-57o, Elevation angle-38o Figure 2. Three-dimensional Phase Trajectories for Different Viewing Angles As the above picture shows, the system will fall into chaos motion state when its parameters and , and external disturbance LT ~ (external disturbance LT ~ will change as time goes on, so we can not accurately know the specific number) meet some conditions,, whose main performance is intense oscillation, unstable speed or torque control performance, and the irregular electromagnetic noise of the system, etc. As we can see from the system dynamics equations (1), dq uu , can be used as a control input to eliminate chaos state and can make the system speed track realize the desired expectations. The next task is to design control law of the two variables. 3. Adaptive Robust Controller Design According to the dynamic equation (1) there exist parameter uncertainty (structural uncertainty) and external disturbance (unstructured uncertainty) in the dynamic system, so it is necessary to take www.scholink.org/ojs/index.php/asir Applied Science and Innovative Research Vol. 8, No. 2, 2024 37 Published by SCHOLINK INC. different methods to handle them. In order to better estimate the system parameters and control the chaos in the permanent magnet synchronous motor, the force 1u is been inputted into speed differential equations according to the entrainment and migration control thought, the closed loop dynamics equation of permanent magnet synchronous motor system are given as follows:         d q L uxyzz uyxzy uTxyx ~ ~)( ~ )( 1      (2) Among them, dq uuu ~,~,1 as control input.

The s1 is nonlinear robust feedback used to compensate the errors of parameter estimation and load torque disturbance.

In addition, if the 0 ~ LT , when 2z reduce to zero, 1z will reduce to zero. 3.4 The Design of the Actual Control Law qu~ According to the third equation in equation (3), we can see that the time derivative of 2z is 12   yz . By bringing the second equation in equation (1) into the time derivative of 2z , we can get: 112 ~)(    quyxzyz (13) Proposed control law is as follows: 221)ˆ(~ zkyxzuq    (14) Put formula (14) into formula (13) we obtain 222 ~ zkxz   . 3.5 The Design of the Robust Feedback Item s1 Nonlinear robust feedback item s1 is designed to eliminate the influence of LTz ~~ 2  on the system stability. While LTz ~~ 2  is unknown, but it has a definite boundary of determination h , which is hTz L  ~~ 2 , we can choose a robust feedback as follows to overcome the instability causes actuator jitter shortcomings according to the ideas of the sliding mode control: 11 4 z h hs    (15) Where  is the bounded positive scalar of control precision, 1 4 z h  is the continuous approximation function of )sgn( 1z , through which we can effectively solve the problem of jitter. 3.6 The Design of Control Law du~ Nonlinear feedback control law is proposed as follows: www.scholink.org/ojs/index.php/asir Applied Science and Innovative Research Vol. 8, No. 2, 2024 39 Published by SCHOLINK INC. dd zzkxyzu  33 ~ (16) Where 03 k .

The error dynamics equation of exponential stability are as follows: )exp()0()( 33 tkztz  (18) This ensures that the tracking error 3z is global uniform stability, according to the above mentioned we know that the system state z will converge to the desired output trajectory dz . 4. Stability Analysis Using adaptive robust control law (14) and the parameter adaptive law (4) and (5), to ensure the prescribed transient and steady-state performance in the system output tracking of x , The tracking error is converged by a known function to no less than the index of convergence and convergence speed of 1k  and the convergence rate is not less than 1k .

Above results show that the proposed adaptive robust controller can guarantee the output tracking transient performance and tracking accuracy in the end. After a period the tracking error can be compressed into the scope of the provisions by reducing parameter can be any smaller. Using adaptive robust control law (14) and the parameter adaptive law (4) and (5) to achieve asymptotic output tracking of x only in the presence of parameter uncertainties.

Through Barbalat lemma, asymptotic output tracking only acheived in the presence of parameter uncertainties. Above results show that the proposed adaptive robust controller can realize asymptotic output tracking only in the presence of parameter uncertainties. 5. Simulation Calculation Results Parameters used in the simulation test of the permanent magnet synchronous motor are as follows: The value of the stator resistance is  6.2R . Inductance values are HLL qd 05.0 HLa 05.0 . The magnetic poles logarithmic is 4np . The rotor flux amplitude is wbf 48.0 . The equivalent inertia is 2510627.2 mkgJequ   . Equivalent viscous friction coefficient is NsBequ 21043.1  . 5.10 , 8.24 can be obtained by simple calculation, at the same time the system is in a state of chaos movement. 5.1 Track Constant Desired Output Set the x control target as 6dx and the z as 0dz . The simulation results is mainly used to track the constant desired output trajectory. If the external load torque disturbance is www.scholink.org/ojs/index.php/asir Applied Science and Innovative Research Vol. 8, No. 2, 2024 41 Published by SCHOLINK INC. )sin(1.00.6 ~ tTL  , the boundary of the ̂ is [0, 10], the boundary of the ̂ is [0, 50], 0.5,, 321 kkk represents the feedback gain,  represents tracking accuracy. When it is reduced, tracking error will be smaller accordingly. When  is further reduced, however, the controller robust part of the feedback gain get bigger, leading to serious control input jitter, and system instability. Therefore,  is always present with the lower limit, so that we can restricate the tracking accuracy.  needed to be an appropriate value, and the value of  is 0.1 here. In order to clearly illustrate the control effect, when the time is 50 seconds, the controller works, and its state variables is shown in Figure 3. Figure 3. The Controller's System Status Curve that Takes Effect at 50 Seconds Figure 4. After 50 Seconds to Control the Input Curve www.scholink.org/ojs/index.php/asir Applied Science and Innovative Research Vol. 8, No. 2, 2024 42 Published by SCHOLINK INC. Based on the above analysis we can know, the system was driven to be a stable equilibrium state, as is shown in Figure 3. System control input as shown in Figure 4. System parameter estimation as shown in Figure 5. And from this figure we can see that, the parameter estimate just converged to a steady value. When LT ~ get bigger, using adaptive control law (Hu, Liu, Ma, & Ullah, 2015) the parameter estimation will diverge, so the controller is not stable. Controller proposed in this paper, however, is only adopted the discontinuous projection method to improve the adaptive law, parameter estimation can be kept within a certain range, rather than diverge. Therefore, it ensures the finite model of uncertainty and the stability of the whole system. Figure 6 is the adaptive robust controller and the comparision curve of commonly nonlinear feedback controller with off-line parameter estimation. Assume the parameter estimation 0.5 ~ ,5.23,5.9  LT , we can see from the figure 6 that the speed tracking error is always in the steady state error range ( 14.0 1  k  ,by calculating), and when the parameter estimation deviates from the value of the real, general nonlinear feedback controller has more tracking error. As a result, the adaptive robust nonlinear feedback controller to external load torque disturbance has better robustness, and have better effect in driving the speed to expectations. Figure 5.

Other system parameters choices are equal to the desired output of the tracking constant in the last section. Controller also has effect at the time of 50 seconds, state variables are shown in Figure 7. From this figure we can see that the system state converged to the desired trajectory after the transition period of the oscillation. Figure 7.

Figure 9. 50 Seconds after the System Parameter Estimation Curve Figure 10. Comparison Curve of Two Controllers Figure 8 shows the control input. System parameter estimation is in Figure 9 from which we can see there exist the estimated  oscillation and  estimated asymptotically converge to its real value, but there is estimation error also. Both estimates, however, remain within a certain range, without divide, which means the uncertainty of the bounded model, thus we can compensate that by stability of the controller. Figure 10 is the comparison curves of the two controllers from which we can see the velocity error of general nonlinear feedback controller is far bigger than that of the adaptive robust controller, which further verify the strong robustness of the adaptive robust controller. www.scholink.org/ojs/index.php/asir Applied Science and Innovative Research Vol. 8, No. 2, 2024 45 Published by SCHOLINK INC. 6. Conclusion This paper presents a chaotic control method based on adaptive robust controller, which is used to eliminate or suppress parameter uncertain chaos in permanent magnet synchronous motor system, and at the same time, considering the external load torque disturbance, the speed accurately is drived to the prescribed trajectory. Adaptive robust controller is designed which proved by Lyapunov method that the proposed controller can realize the transient and steady state performance. From two aspects that track constant desired output and track sine curve desired output to verify the effectiveness and superiority of the method, and the simulation results show that this method can eliminate the chaos and achieve good tracking accuracy.
