Multilevel inverter with space vector modulation: intelligence direct torque control of induction motor

An Intelligence direct torque control (DTC) of induction motor using multilevel inverter with space vector modulation (SVM) is proposed in this study. The novelty of the proposed intelligence technique is an artificial neural network (ANN), which is utilised for the DTC of the induction motor. Here, ANN has been trained by using the target parameters such as reference quadrature and direct axis voltage with the corresponding input parameters change in motor torque and flux. The change in motor torque and flux parameters are identified by using the multilevel inverter output voltage and current. The back propagation process is used for the training process of the ANN. By using the ANN outputs, the SVM technique develops the control pulses for the multilevel inverter. Then the proposed intelligence technique is implemented in the MATLAB/simulink platform and the effectiveness is analysed by comparing with the different case studies and different methods. The comparison results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach and confirm its potential to solve the problem.
