this error is used as the feedback. The estimated rotor speed is equal to the actual speed<br />

when this error is minimized to be zero. This method is a closed loop estimation scheme,<br />

which is different from the open loop flux estimation using the <strong>stator</strong> voltage equations.<br />

The speed error is known to converge to zero when the speed estimator structure is a<br />

Proportion-Integral (PI) [10.17]. The error function, which yields the error signal, plays a<br />

very import<strong>an</strong>t role in the speed estimator design. Different error functions have been<br />

proposed in previous work <strong>an</strong>d a brief introduction c<strong>an</strong> be found in Chapter 1.<br />

The error function proposed in [10.39] is given as:<br />

) ] ( k)<br />

The drawback <strong>of</strong> this error function lies in the fact that when the weight <strong>of</strong> reactive<br />

power increases, the weight <strong>of</strong> active power has to be reduced. It is found that the<br />

reduction <strong>of</strong> active power at <strong>an</strong>y rotor speed c<strong>an</strong>not enh<strong>an</strong>ce the system stability <strong>an</strong>d c<strong>an</strong><br />

only make the stability problem worse. If only the reactive power is used in the error<br />

function, it is found from the stability <strong>an</strong>alysis using D-decomposition that the stable<br />

regions for different slip frequencies with the same set <strong>of</strong> speed estimator parameters will<br />

conflict with each other. For example, if the rotor speed is adjusted within the whole<br />

speed r<strong>an</strong>ge so that the parameters <strong>of</strong> speed estimator are chosen to stabilize the system in<br />

slip frequency A, it may be unstable when the motor is operated under slip frequency B.<br />

However, by adding the reactive power in a specific m<strong>an</strong>ner, the system stability c<strong>an</strong> be<br />

improved.<br />
