Speed estimation of induction motor using artificial neural networks

This paper proposes two techniques for speed estimation of induction motors using artificial neural networks. The techniques are based on speed expressions obtained from the induction motor dynamic equations. Two of the equations obtained have singularities, and hence direct speed estimation from these is not possible. The paper proposes a scheme using two ANNs to recover the speed from these two equations. However, it is possible to combine these two equations in a way that removes the singularities. Another method, based on this equation, is presented for obtaining the speed directly from the output of an ANN. These methods are general and easily implementable using commercially available ANN devices.
