Compensation of Parameter Variation Effects in Sensorless Indirect Vector Controlled Induction Machines Using Model-Based Approach

The majority of speed estimation schemes for sensorless vector control of induction machines use a mathematical model of the machine in the estimation process. These schemes are therefore inherently sensitive to parameter variation effects in the machine. The variety of speed estimation methods makes any attempt to develop a universal approach to compensation of parameter variation effects impossible. This paper concentrates on one of the most frequently used schemes, in which speed is estimated using model reference adaptive control approach (MRAC) on the basis of two estimated values of the rotor flux space vector. The estimator is analyzed in conjunction with indirect feed-forward rotor flux-oriented induction machine. An attempt is made to improve the accuracy of the speed estimation by appropriate modification of the speed estimator and the indirect vector controller structures using modified induction motor models that account for one or more of the phenomena that are neglected in development of the...
