Among these, multi-phase induction machines are gaining momentum in variable-speed applications. The usual control practice is the use of a speed Proportional–Integral loop that sets the current reference for an inner controller. This inner controller decides the voltage to be applied, which is realized by an electronic power converter. This paper presents an Artificial Intelligence (AI) scheme for tuning. It aims to optimize the usual figures of merit for drives. Moreover, tuning for both loops is tackled concurrently. The adjustment is performed relying on the operating region to address non-linear behavior. The results obtained using a five-phase induction motor illustrate that the proposed method can work in the entire operating range of the drive with improved results.application/pdf14 p.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Artificial networksControl tuningMulti-phase induction machinePredictive controlVariable-speed driveinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://doi.org/10.3390/machines12120899
