Abstract

In this paper, territory particle swarm optimization (TPSO) is proposed for the optimal design of surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) for high altitude long endurance (HALE) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The proposed algorithm exploits the concept of a territory to the particle swarm optimization (PSO) to solve the problem that the conventional PSO cannot find the multimodal solutions. Also, by combining the stochastic method, PSO, with the deterministic method, pattern search method, it is possible to find optimal solutions quickly and accurately. The superiority of the proposed algorithm is verified through comparison in the test functions with niching genetic algorithm, which is well known multimodal optimization algorithm. The TPSO is applied to the optimization design of outer-rotor SPM for HALE UAV, and the optimal design with reduced cogging torque has been derived.
