A sensorless vector control of an induction motor provides a good performance in the middle and high speed region. However, in the low speed region, it is very difficult to implement the sensorless vector controller because the feeding voltage measured by the motor is very low. In this paper, to improve the performance of a sensorless vector control of an induction motor in the low speed region under 3Hz, we proposed the fuzzy logic controller using the zooming algorithm. To verify the performance of the proposed controller, an experiment has been performed.

However, in the low speed region, it is very difficult to implement the sensorless vector controller because the feeding voltage measured by the motor is very low. In this paper, we designed the sensorless vector controller of an induction motor using the estimate of the slip frequency.

This paper presents a sensorless vector control algorithm of closed loop Gopinath flux observer to enhance the robustness at low speed by switching P/PI mode. Closed loop Gopinath flux observer has the problem in sensorless vector control of induction motor at low speed. This paper solves the problem using the characteristic function of closed loop Gopinath flux observer. P mode shows better performance than PI mode under the cut-off frequency of observer. But P mode always has a flux error due to DC offset, so this paper combines P mode and PI mode. This algorithm shows good performance over wide speed range. The performance has been confirmed through computer simulations using MATLAB SIMULINK and experiments.

The performance improvement in the high speed region for the sensorless based synchronous machine drive is discussed in the paper. Conventional dynamic overmodulation method in the vector controlled AC driver requires some calculation of maximum amplitude of the applying voltage vector to limit its amplitude, which leads to increase the calculation time of microprocessor. For low performance microprocessor, this might be impossible to complete the control loop within limited control time. Thus, to reduce the calculation time, the constantly limited amplitude for applying voltage vector is tried in this paper to drive sensorless based synchronous motor. Certainly, there exists some errors in amplitude and phase angle between inverter voltage and calculating voltage in the sensorless algorithm. But, this errors are too small to prevent the high speed sensorless operation within overmodulation region. The validities of the proposed method is proved by the experimental results.

For high performance ac drives, the speed sensorless vector control and the stator flux orientation concept have received increasing attention. This paper describes a speed and flux sensorless vector-controlled induction machine(IM) drive based on the stator flux-oriented control. To improve the accuracy and operating range, the control system employs the previously presented speed and flux estimation methods, and then we present a developed method of estimating the speed of IM. In the proposed method all differential and integral terms have been eliminated by giving a very fast, low-cost, effective and practical alternative to the methods currently available. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulations and experimental results.

This paper describes a speed sensorless algorithm for vector control system with compensated stator resistance and rotor time constant of induction motor using a model reference adaptive system(MRAS). The system are composed of two MRAC, one is a rotor speed estimation and a stator resistor identification by back-EMF observer, other is used to identify rotor time constant by magnetizing current observer, so that the estimation can be cover a very low speed range with a robust control. The suggest control strategy and estimation method have been validated by simulation study. In the simulation using Matlab/Simulik, the proposed speed sensorless vector control system are shown to operate very well in spite of variable rotor time constant and load fluctuation.

The speed sensorless vector control of induction motor using the rotor speed and flux estimation is widely used. In practice, these schemes depend on the accurate parameters of the machine. If in the vector control scheme an inaccurate parameter of induction motor due to skin effects and to temperature variations is used. it is difficult to achieve correct field orientation. From this reason. we propose robust speed sensorless vector control of induction motor against the variations of parameter and disturbance by using extended Kalman filter. For speed and rotor flux estimation. conventional adaptive flux observer is applied. extended Kalman filter which is correctly capable of estimating rotor flux and load by eliminating virtually influences of structural noises is proposed. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the control strategy proposed here for the induction motor drives.
