Sensor fault-tolerant control of an induction motor based electric vehicle

This paper deals with sensor fault detection within a reconfigurable direct torque control of an induction motor-based electric vehicle. The proposed strategy concerns current, voltage and speed sensors faults that are detected and followed by control reconfiguration in order to allow the vehicle continuous operation. The proposed approach is validated through experiments on an induction motor drive and simulations on an electric vehicle using a European urban and extra urban driving cycle.
