A NEW GLOBAL CONTROL SCHEME FOR SENSORLESS CURRENT-FED INDUCTION MOTORS

Abstract The problem of controlling a sensorless induction motor (i.e. without rotor speed measurements) is addressed. Smooth reference signals for rotor speed and rotor flux modulus are required to be tracked exponentially and globally. Only semiglobal solutions have been recently obtained in the literature. A global solution is presented for current-fed induction motors which makes use of a novel rotor speed observer and can be naturally extended to the full-order model.
