Abstract

The optimal performance of direct current (DC) motors is intrinsically linked to their mathematical models’ precision and their controllers’ effectiveness. However, the limited availability of motor characteristic information poses significant challenges to achieving accurate modeling and robust control. This study introduces an approach employing artificial neural networks (ANNs) to estimate critical DC motor parameters by defining practical constraints that simplify the estimation process. A mathematical model was introduced for optimal parameter estimation, and two advanced learning algorithms were proposed to efficiently train the ANN. The performance of the algorithms was thoroughly analyzed using metrics such as the mean squared error, epoch count, and execution time to ensure the reliability of dynamic priority arbitration and data integrity. Dynamic priority arbitration involves automatically assigning tasks in real-time depending on their relevance for smooth operations, whereas data integrity ensures that information remains accurate, consistent, and reliable throughout the entire process. The ANN-based estimator successfully predicts electromechanical and electrical characteristics, such as back-EMF, moment of inertia, viscous friction coefficient, armature inductance, and armature resistance. Compared to conventional methods, which are often resource-intensive and time-consuming, the proposed solution offers superior accuracy, significantly reduced estimation time, and lower computational costs. The simulation results validated the effectiveness of the proposed ANN under diverse real-world operating conditions, making it a powerful tool for enhancing DC motor performance with practical applications in industrial automation and control systems.
