In fact, the dynamic operating conditions lead to the fluctuation of motor load. For this reason, utilizing conventional controllers is hard enough due to the critical constraints and limitation of the ship power source. The paper presents study and analysis of efficiency optimization strategy in thruster shaft speed controllers driven by induction motor. The control strategy based on intelligent method called radial basis function neural network (RBFN) is implemented. A set of training data derived from a loss model controller of the induction motor working under indirect field-oriented-control (IFOC) drives is used for training process of RBFN. The loss model controller utilizes schematically the flux generating current as controlling variable. Estimation of the flux generating current through the RBFN process shows significant improvement in motor efficiency especially for low speed and ship transit system. ## Keywords - Controller (irrigation) - Control theory (sociology) - Engineering - Induction motor - Process (computing) - Radial basis function network - Propulsion - Control engineering - Electronic speed control - Artificial neural network - Computer science - Radial basis function - Control (management) - Voltage - Electrical engineering - Machine learning - Artificial intelligence - Operating system - Biology - Agronomy - Aerospace engineering --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
