Abstract

In this paper, a new dynamic overmodulation strategy is proposed for vector-controlled induction motor drive, and a comparison experiment with conventional schemes are also performed. In overmodulation region, the proposed overmodulation scheme allocates the output voltage of inverter so that synchronous d-axis voltage is diminished in proposed overmodulation scheme allocates the output voltage of inverter so that synchronous d-axis voltage is diminished in proportion as reference voltage exceeds hexagon boundary. As a result, d-axis current is decreased in the overmodulation region, which improves the dynamic performance of torque control considering the current dynamics of induction motor. The conspicuous improvement of the proposed scheme over conventional ones is observed in experimental results.
